In addition to the price increase, the number of sales skyrocketed. According to OpenSea Marketplace, the number of sales of collection tokens soared to a record high of 212 units on June 2. Users traded about 170,000 ETH (~$30.6 million) in one day.

As a reminder, a jury upheld Johnny Depp on three counts of defamation. The jury also ordered Depp to pay $2 million to Heard on a counterclaim. The star of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie series sued Amber Heard after she wrote an op-ed column for The Washinghton Post in 2018 calling herself a “victim of domestic violence.” Depp demanded $50 million, and Heard counterclaimed for $100 million.
