Structural Evolution of the NFT Ecosystem

This week, the NFT ecosystem once again proves its value far beyond speculation, developing towards a more solid infrastructure, with real applications, legal protections, and integration with major financial platforms becoming new pillars.

A certain exchange wallet partners with Capybobo to strengthen the NFT ecosystem

A certain exchange wallet has established a strategic partnership with Capybobo, aiming to develop a new form of interaction between users, games, and digital collectibles, providing Play-to-Earn opportunities within the ecosystem through the PYBOBO token system.

In practice, this exchange will enable users to seamlessly access Capybobo’s gaming ecosystem from their wallets, reducing friction costs and facilitating new participants’ entry into the blockchain environment.

Through this collaboration, both parties are committed to lowering the barriers to entry for decentralized gaming while expanding ways for users to interact with the Web3 entertainment ecosystem.

Logan Paul’s NFT assets plummet in value amid major devaluation controversy

Screenshots of Logan Paul’s Snapchat, circulating on social media, have triggered alarms in the crypto community, showing an NFT purchased for $623,000 now worth only $10.

However, data from DappRadar offers a more accurate and moderate perspective. The NFT belongs to the 0N1 Force series, initially bought at a price of 193.12 ETH. Although the devaluation is severe, market indicators show that the asset has not fallen to the symbolic $10 level.

Currently, the base price of the series is around $380, and this particular piece owned by Paul is valued at about 6.8 ETH, approximately $9,000. This represents a decline of nearly 98.5% compared to the purchase price but also demonstrates that even after drastic adjustments, rarity and market context continue to influence valuation.

A certain compliant platform includes Doodles and Moonbirds tokens in its listing roadmap

In a significant move within the digital asset ecosystem, a certain compliant platform has included the native tokens of two established NFT series—Doodles (DOOD) and Moonbirds (BIRB)—in its listing roadmap. The exchange will activate trading functions once market-making mechanisms and technical infrastructure are in place.

This announcement is an important validation of the evolution of tokenized digital collectibles, marking strategic expansion beyond traditional cryptocurrencies by one of the most regulated trading platforms globally.

Reactions on social media have been mostly positive, although some participants remain cautious about the ongoing volatility in the crypto market.

Yat Siu defends the resilience of the NFT industry

Yat Siu, co-founder of Animoca Brands, stated that the NFT market has not died but has undergone a cleansing process, eliminating those seeking quick profits and opening space for more genuine and lasting adoption.

“Are NFTs still popular among high-net-worth collectors? Of course. I am a seasoned collector myself, and I share similar views with colleagues in this field. It’s a community,” Siu said.

At the CfC St. Moritz crypto conference on January 20, 2026, Siu explained that high-net-worth buyers purchasing NFTs for collection rather than resale are playing a key role in the industry’s stability. He compared them to traditional art collectors, emphasizing the emotional and cultural components surrounding these digital works.

“The market is in a downturn, but it is definitely not dead,” he pointed out, emphasizing that although the market is experiencing a phase of lower visibility, it remains active and has long-term fundamentals.

US drops insider trading lawsuit against former OpenSea executive

The US government has dropped the insider trading case against former OpenSea executive Nathaniel Chastain, after the federal appeals court overturned his 2023 convictions for wire fraud and money laundering.

In an official letter, Manhattan federal prosecutor and former SEC chairman Jay Clayton explained that the decision was based on the fact that Chastain had already served part of his initial sentence, including three months of imprisonment. “The interests of the United States will be better served by delaying prosecution of this matter, and there will be no retrial.”

This ruling sets a relevant precedent regarding the legal boundaries of insider information concepts within the crypto ecosystem. While using non-public information is clearly criminal in traditional markets, courts in NFT cases have acknowledged that regulatory frameworks still lack precise definitions.

For users, this outcome presents a complex scenario: on one hand, it reduces the risk of judicial proceedings based on vague interpretations; on the other hand, it confirms that the industry still operates under more relaxed rules than Wall Street.

As Chris Dixon said, “Web3 is an opportunity for users to become owners rather than products.”
