So far, NFTs on Zuse Market have topped volumes of over 100 million, hitting the milestone on Nov. 24. Unique weekly buyers on Zuse Market vary between 200 and 600, while unique sellers average at around 1,400.

Hedera experienced strong TVL growth in Q3

Hedera has also experienced a spike in its total value locked in. Currently, that figure stands at $23.3 million, with liquid staking solution Stader accounting for the bulk of it. DEXs SaucerSwap, HeliSWap, and Bubbleswap account for most of the remainder in volume. Hedera has been adding a steady 10–15% growth month-over-month in terms of TVL.

At the end of Q3, Hedra had over $100 million in TVL, which was a 171% increase quarter-over-quarter. Since the market crash, those numbers have fallen, but the HBAR price indicates there is optimism in the community.
