CryptoPunks Trading Volume Surges by Over 11 Times in a Week

CryptoPunks trading volume has surged dramatically over the past week, reaching approximately $8.2 million in unadjusted trading volume from September 19 to September 26, according to CryptoSlam.

This is about 11.7 times the previous week's volume and marks a significant increase in activity for the popular NFT collection.

A buying spree on September 23 saw around 63 Punks purchased for approximately $6 million, causing the floor price to rise from around 29 ETH to about 34 ETH within two days.

The trading volume has remained high, with roughly half of the total volume occurring in the days surrounding the September 23 buying spree. The floor price, however, has been more subdued, increasing by only 31% since January 1 but remaining around 39% below its peak of approximately 54 ETH reached in late July 2025.

A rare 'Holy Grail' edition Punk was sold for $3 million plus an undisclosed amount, marking the largest single transaction in GONDI history. Another highly sought-after Zombie Punk was sold for 875,000 USDC, equivalent to approximately 326 ETH at the time.
