Okay, Bears, which is the latest Solana-based NFT collection comprising 10,000 unique NFTs of bears, was sold out on the day it launched, amassing nearly 231,000 SOL in the process. The project had managed to dominate the OpenSea 24-hour tracker for the first time after defeating major Ethereum-based NFT projects such as VeeFriends, Meebits, and more. 

According to the data acquired from the NFT tracking website CryptoSlam, the project has managed to procure nearly $23.1 million in sales on the first day of its launch at a mint price of 1.5 SOL or $145.

In an interview with Decrypt, Tiffany Huang, Magic Eden’s head of content and marketing expressed that she is thrilled to have launched the Okay Bears NFT collection on the platform. 

“We are thrilled to have launched and seen 96% of the trade volume for Okay Bears since launch, …This is a new era of growth for Solana. Solana projects have just as bright of a future as projects on other chains. Communities, regardless of chains, will ultimately pick winning collections.” Huang told Decrypt
