Pretend World Belongings, an Ethereum-based $NFT gacha protocol constructed by two-person staff Token Works, overtook Solana’s Collector Crypt in day by day income on July 25, 4 days after its July 20 relaunch, in keeping with DefiLlama knowledge.
The protocol pulled in $447,604 in income on July 25, its peak day, per DefiLlama — forward of Collector Crypt, whose day by day income has averaged roughly $360,000 over the previous week.

The launch surge has cooled and the flip has partially reversed: Collector Crypt retook the day by day lead with $270,186 in income over the previous 24 hours towards Pretend World Belongings’ $167,869, per DefiLlama’s chain rankings. Even at that decreased tempo, Pretend World Belongings is the second-highest revenue-generating protocol on Ethereum over the previous day, behind solely Sky’s $464,303 — forward of Aave ($105,282), Uniswap ($76,028), Lido ($74,755), and the $74,808 in $ETH the community itself burned over the interval.
