OpenSea OS2 exits the testing phase, reaching a new monthly user high since 2023.
Gate News bot reported that last month, the number of monthly active users of NFT trading platform OpenSea hit a new high since mid-2023. According to Dune Analytics, the platform had 467,322 users make one or more transactions in May, which is on par with levels from mid-2022 to early 2023. The number of active users in June is likely to be the same, or even higher, and currently stands at 236,091. Despite a resurgence in interest in OpenSea, the platform's monthly trading volume is still well below the levels seen in 2021 and early 2022 (before the NFT market downturn). Last month's trading volume was $81 million, while January 2022 peaked at over $5 billion. The surge in active users may be attributed to the official launch of OS2 on May 29, as well as user expectations for potential rewards. This beta is only open to Gemesis NFT holders (94,757 NFTs created by OpenSea in April 2023) and mainly tests new features.
