Biggest NFT segments, based on funding size 2020-2022
The value investments made into NFT gaming was times larger than before, although this was not the fastest-growing segment. This was according to a comparison of the ** biggest investments made in NFT projects between September 2020 and September 2021, versus the top 50 from September 2021 to September 2022. On the one hand, these numbers suggest a sizable increase across various segments - especially for NFT marketplaces such as OpenSea - which would be in line with prior research on the growing market size of NFTs worldwide. On the other hand, one should note that most investments were likely to have happened early in the "September 2021 to September 2022" time frame, as is exemplified by the declining number of NFT users over the course of 2022.
