The Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC)[1] collection is back to the top of the NFT sales volume charts. After spending some days outside the top spot, HODLers were beginning to worry. Despite the rush surrounding Sorare[2], Moonbirds[3], and NBA Top Shot, the Ape collection has reclaimed the throne.

Close your eyes and I never left!

The BAYC collection is back at the top of the pile once again. It currently leads the daily, weekly, AND monthly charts for sales volume according to Crypto Slam. The Yuga Labs NFT collection has been facing bearish headwinds since a while. The ongoing Yuga Labs lawsuit[4] against critic Ryder Ripps has proved to be a major setback that got carried into July as well. Fair to say, the Apes have performed very well despite the legal battle.

At press time, BAYC witnessed a 94.41% uptick in sales volume. This has shot up the sales volume to $1,676,600 in the past 24 hours. Despite the uptick, the sales are still down over the week. From the 119 transactions this week, $9.7 million was generated in a near 10% downturn.

A major reason for the drop in sales can be attributed to increasing losses in trading. As per data from Crypto Slam, has tipped to $1,029,419 after a 23.20% loss after the week.
