π Monthly stats of the top leagues' NFT platforms
Here's an overview of the top leagues' NFT marketplace performances last month.

July has been an interesting month, as the marketplaces had quite different developments:
- Sorare is the big winner as sales surged after signing Kylian MbappΓ© as investor and ambassador (see top 10 news).
- NBA Top Shot and NFL All Day both increased sales (All Day even significantly), even though Top Shot had 30% less unique buyers than in the month before. Seems like a small pack of users went on a buying spree
- UFC Strike and Candy MLB both saw declining sales, with UFC Strike at least adding more unique users
Let's see how the numbers will develop now that leagues are slowly moving into the new seasons again.
