PublicAI and the NEAR Protocol
PublicAI operates on the NEAR protocol, aspiring to deliver top-notch, human-generated AI training data while allowing people worldwide to monetize their skills. The DataBabies collection, launched on NEAR, serves as a tiny piece of PublicAI, aimed toward enhancing community involvement and offering perks to its owners.
Despite being based on the NEAR blockchain and priced in NEAR tokens, the gathering’s public minting triumph is essentially credited to the cross-chain functionality of HOT Craft. This marketplace empowers users to mint and trade NFTs using Solana or EVM-compatible wallets and networks, along with NEAR. This setup significantly expands the potential user base, often hampered by fragmented liquidity across different ecosystems.

As of August 4, DataBabies NFTs had a floor price of 19.1 NEAR ($47.75). The 10,000 NFTs in the gathering are held by 4,694 unique addresses, with over $175,000 traded in only 21 days since their debut.

Understanding the Floor Price
The floor price is the bottom price an owner is willing to just accept for an item in a group, a standard gauge for the performance of a group. Prices can soar above this baseline, influenced by the rarity or desirability of specific items.
For instance, on August 4, the user lilcrow.near sold a rare NFT for 160 NEAR ($400) to account a54796c31bb69dfd3292e24d6952293bc390f4c0a82a36af886b4c25dc2b9137 around 10:00 AM (UTC).
