XRP Leads With Highest Gains in Daily NFT Volumes: Details

NFT transactions have recently remained a prominent area of growth for XRP Ledger (XRPL). Total NFT transactions were one of the few network activity metrics to grow QoQ in the previous quarter.

NFTs are incorporated into the XRPL core protocol and, unlike issued currencies (also known as native tokens), do not require smart contracts for creation or transfer. NFTs were standardized by XLS-20 in October 2022, introducing perks such as royalties and anti-spam features that help users avoid undesirable tokens but also stay compliant.

On the mainnet of XRPL, increased activity in various NFT transaction types reflected a focus on this area. Notably, nearly all NFT transaction categories increased, resulting in a QoQ increase in average daily total NFT transactions.

In July, the Bologna-based motorbike manufacturer Ducati announced its NFT collectibles in collaboration with XRP Ledger (XRPL). Upcoming Ducati initiatives will be deployed with the help of Ripple, the company’s blockchain partner, who will provide technical support on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) blockchain.
