In terms of wash trading, the Ethereum network has recorded the highest number of wash trades this week. In the past seven days, the Ethereum network has recorded a trading sales volume of $23 million, followed by Solana with $75,256 and the Polygon chain with $6.5 million.

By description, wash trading is a form of market manipulation in which NFT collectors simultaneously sell and buy the same financial instruments or NFTs, creating a false impression of market activity without incurring market risk or changing the entity’s market position. Wash trading has been deemed illegal in most jurisdictions across the globe.
