Just days after relaunching, Fake World Assets, a two-person Ethereum NFT gacha project, shocked the market by pulling in $1.6 million in fees over four days. On July 25, it hit a peak daily revenue of $447,604, surpassing Solana’s popular tokenized card platform, Collector Crypt, which averages around $360,000 daily. This jump came despite Ethereum’s higher transaction fees compared to Solana.
The surge came with about 90,000 transactions and 35,000 individual gacha pulls, a clear sign of strong user interest willing to pay a premium for this new kind of NFT experience. Although the initial excitement cooled, and Collector Crypt reclaimed the revenue lead with $270,186 against Fake World Assets’ $167,869 in the following 24 hours, the latter still ranked second in Ethereum’s daily revenue charts. It outperformed major players like Aave, Uniswap, and Lido, with only the CDP protocol Sky ahead at $464,303.
Creators Adam (@Rhynotic) and Teto (@tetonotsorry) funded the project themselves, cleverly naming it Fake World Assets as a nod to Collector Crypt’s “real world assets” branding. The numbers suggest there’s appetite for gacha mechanics on Ethereum, even when fees are steeper. However, sustaining this revenue remains uncertain since daily fees have already halved since the peak, and token incentives rewarding early users expire soon. Collector Crypt’s monthly figures also dwarf Fake World Assets’ short-term success, showing that long-term dominance is far from guaranteed.
