Cryptopunk Sales and Traders
CryptoPunks Introduction
10,000 unique collectible characters with proof of ownership stored on the Ethereum blockchain. The project that inspired the modern CryptoArt movement. Selected press and appearances include Mashable, CNBC, The Financial Times, Bloomberg, MarketWatch, The Paris Review, Salon, The Outline, BreakerMag, Christie's of London, Art|Basel, The PBS NewsHour, The New York Times in 2018 and again in 2021. The Cryptopunks are one of the earliest examples of a "Non-Fungible Token" on Ethereum, and were inspiration for the ERC-721 standard that powers most digital art and collectibles.
What is a CryptoPunk?
The CryptoPunks are 24x24 pixel art images, generated algorithmically. Most are punky-looking guys and girls, but there are a few rarer types mixed in: Apes, Zombies and even the odd Alien. Every punk has their own profile page that shows their attributes as well as their ownership/for-sale status (here's an example).

Cryptopunks’ Biggest Rival:
Currently, Bored Ape Yacht Club (and also Mutant Ape Yacht Club) is the biggest rival of Cryptopunks. The collection of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on the Ethereum blockchain is widely credited with sparking the NFT craze, inspiring the ERC-721 standard as well as prominent collections that followed—including the Bored Ape Yacht Club, which launched in April 2021. The Apes quickly captured the attention of celebrities, making ownership an A-List status symbol. By the end of the year, the floor price for a BAYC NFT flipped that of the CryptoPunks, holding the crown for almost all of 2022. And Bored Apes prices hit record highs in April, with a floor price of $429,000, as creator Yuga Labs prepared to launch its Otherside metaverse.
The much-touted rivalry is largely symbolic, of course, as Bored Ape creator, Yuga Labs bought the rights to the CryptoPunks in March 2022 and now owns both collections.
Further, this latest flip isn't the result of rising CryptoPunks values. The crypto bear market brought everything crashing down. Both Apes and Punks have actually lost value over the last 30 days, per NFT Price Floor. Apes are simply losing value faster, declining 28% versus 16% for Punks, when measured in USD. To the extent that recently CryptoPunk NFTs floor price flips Bored Apes for first time in the last 5 months.
It's likely the two giant NFT collections will continue to trade places at the top of the charts over the next few weeks. But some members of crypto Twitter are suggesting that the Bored Ape Yacht Club hit its peak with the Otherside launch in April, whereas the future of CryptoPunks may now have more upside given their history and the recent handoff of intellectual property rights.
Method
For this bounty, I am going to mainly use ethereum.core.ez_nft_sales
table
For Analysing Cryptopunks, we are going to filter NFT_address
column to
0xb47e3cd837dDF8e4c57F05d70Ab865de6e193BBB and setting event_type
column to sale
- Analysis total sales

Based on the above methodology and the above charts, the wallet address 0x6639c089adfba8bb9968da643c6be208a70d6daa is the user with the most earned profit ($50.70M or 15.28 ETH) from Cryptopunk trades.
(Cryptopunks account info of this address).
This wallet has not performed much number of sale transactions (according to the previous charts because he/she is not listed among the top 10 users) but she/he has gained like 55.70M USD from sale transactions (is listed among the top 10 users in terms of sales volume).
The interesting thing is that none of our very top sellers are listed in the users with the most earned profit. For example, the wallet address 0x1919db36ca2fa2e15f9000fd9cdc2edcf863e685 who were actively listed on the sales and purchases charts, is not listed among top 10 earners or the wallet address 0x9b5a5c5800c91af9c965b3bf06ad29caa6d00f9b which has earned most USD from punks sales is not also listed among top 10 lists of these 2 charts.
