Milady Maker led CryptoSlam’s daily non-fungible token (NFT) sales chart with US$1.07 million on Tuesday, up from Monday’s US$267,554.
Milady’s rise on Tuesday follows the backlash against Yuga Labs, the owner of CryptoPunks IP. The company was criticized for announcing a new NFT collection on Monday that focuses on race and gender, tied to CryptoPunks, the second collection of the day.
While disappointed CryptoPunks owners warned that they might sell off their NFTs, members of the Milady community predicted that the money would flow to Milady.
