OnChainMonkey’s trading volume soars by 1,417% in just 7 days

Furthermore, the inscription was done with efficiency and care, costing only a few dollars and taking up minimal block space, making it eco-friendly.
OMC’s ultimate goal is to empower its members and build wealth together, not just in terms of finances but in all aspects of life, including physical health, social connectivity, and positive impact on the world.
On 9 February, OnChainMonkey hinted at its plans to shake up the crypto world, and it did so. The collection registered an explosive rise in volume, generating $1.08 million in one day.
