  • Most NFTs are now likely worthless, less than two years after a massive bull run in the digital collectibles.

  • Out of the top collections, the most common price for an NFT is now $5-$10.

Are NFTs dead? 

A recent study looking at the price of thousands of collections seems to suggest the answer is, "yes." 

A report by dappGambl found that 95% of non-fungible tokens are effectively worthless. Out of 73,257 NFT collections, 69,795 of them have a market cap of zero ether, based on data provided by NFT Scan and CoinMarketCap.

By their estimates, almost 23 million people hold these worthless assets.
