The Shiba Inu (SHIB) team has just revealed a collaboration with luxury brand, Bugatti Group, to launch a limited-edition collection of physical items and collectible NFTs.
As cryptocurrency prices plunged in 2022, it also threw cold water on the Non-fungible token (NFT) space. Prices have fluctuated dramatically since then with NFT trading volumes experiencing a sharp downtrend. However, the sector stared the new year on a boisterous note as the first week of 2023 saw a 26.01% increase in terms of sales, compared to the last week of 2022. As per Cryptoslam.io, a whopping 1.2 million NFT transactions took place among 400,748 buyers with nearly $209 million in NFT sales across 19 different blockchain networks.
