NFTs Are Back in the Game

While meme coins have been the talk of the crypto town since the beginning of 2024, the non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have once again been under investors’ radar. Nicolás Lallement, the co-founder of NFT Price Floor stated that he’s “already seeing signs” of their NFT comeback.

He also underscored the growing demand for digital collectibles while citing the recent sale of two Alien Punks, each fetching $16 million, and a record-breaking sale of Autoglyphs totaling $14.6 million in February. Speaking to Crypto.News, Lallement said:

“So yes, I think NFTs will come back 100%, we are already seeing signs of that. […] The ongoing bull market plus the potential l2 summer we are going to enter are the perfect combination for a comeback of quality NFTs in all fronts.”

Lallement also highlighted the distinctive value proposition of digital collectibles, underscoring their capacity for “compelling, richer, and more sophisticated” storytelling.
