On January 17, Russian Human Rights Commissioner Moskalikova told reporters in Geneva after meeting with ICRC President Sporalitz that restarting the prisoner-of-war exchange process between Russia and Ukraine is the top priority. She stated that Russia has submitted a list of Ukrainian military personnel in Russia who are ready for repatriation. Previously, Ukraine typically submitted the list, and Russia agreed to repatriation, but the current dialogue with Ukraine is "puzzling." It is difficult to discuss the possible exchange deadline and the number of prisoners at this time, as "various details could emerge until the last minute, potentially disrupting the process or changing its direction."On January 17, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that the Ukrainian delegation had arrived in the United States that day and was expected to receive its first briefing on the talks that evening Kyiv time.

Zelenskyy reiterated that Ukraine has never been, and will never be, an obstacle to peace, and that progress in the current diplomatic process depends on the positions of the partners.On January 17th, it was reported that on January 13th, according to Xian University of Electronic Science and Technology, Academician Hao Yues team at the university broke through a 20-year bottleneck in semiconductor materials technology, achieving a leap forward in chip heat dissipation efficiency and overall performance, providing a replicable Chinese paradigm for solving various high-quality integration problems of semiconductor materials. The relevant findings were recently published in the top international journals *Nature Communications* and *Science Advances*. Zhang Jincheng, Vice President and Professor of Xian University of Electronic Science and Technology, stated, "Inability to dissipate heat can lead to decreased chip performance or even device burnout." The team innovatively injected high-energy ions into the crystal of third-generation semiconductor chips, making the surface of the crystal nucleation layer smooth. This breakthrough reduced the semiconductor thermal resistance to one-third of its original value, solving the heat dissipation problem faced by third-generation and future semiconductor chips. Simultaneously, this breakthrough significantly improved the performance of semiconductor devices.According to Syrian security sources and Turkish defense sources, US-led coalition warplanes flew over northern Syria, where clashes were taking place between Syrian government forces and Kurdish militants.

Crypto Market Sell-off Delivers NFT Trading Volume Boost

The crypto market sell-off has aided the growth of OpenSea NFT trading volumes.


Trading volumes on OpenSea fell in February and March as the crypto market rose.


As more mainstream businesses join the NFT area, the prognosis for the NFT market remains positive.

NFTs and OpenSea had a strong start to 2022, with trade volumes reaching an all-time high in January. The upward trend provided a positive picture for the next year.


ETH trade volume reached $4.97 billion in January, according to Dune Analytics statistics. The previous all-time high for OpenSea came in August, when trade volume reached $3.42 billion.


However, the crypto market's recovery from late January lows to early April highs was underwhelming in February and March.


Conditions in the NFT market look to be improving, with the recent crypto market sell-off providing support.

Trading on OpenSea with ETH under $3,000

March saw $2.49bn in ETH-based NFT trading volumes, down from $4.97bn in January and $3.58bn in February.


ETH trading volume is at $1.30bn. A continuing ETH decline would encourage demand for NFTs, notwithstanding the lack of a straight line.


After a January low of $2,161, ETH hit $3,500 in April before slipping down to sub-$3,000. ETH has declined in 6 of 9 sessions, with ETH-based NFT trading on OpenSea returning to sub-$3,000.


Because NFT trade volumes for Polygon (MATIC) and Solana (SOL) are so small, ETH remains the major emphasis.


This month's active traders have risen. From 546,145 in January to 451,767 in March, active ETH-based NFT traders. This month, there were 281,546 active ETH-based NFT traders.


Active traders may reach January's all-time high, boosting OpenSea and NFTs.

Beyond ETH Value's Influence on Trading Volume

Competition, illegal conduct, new NFT launches, and regulatory scrutiny will all have an impact on OpenSea trading activity.


LooksRare (LOOKS) debuted in January this year, and Coinbase is ready to join the NFT field via CoinbaseNFT.


Acceptance of fiat money as a form of payment will be a last important driver for NFT transaction counts. Coinbase and Mastercard announced a cooperation at the start of the year that would enable mainstream payments for NFTs.


The ability to accept mainstream payments eliminates the need for potential NFT collectors to open digital wallets and acquire cryptocurrency under risky market circumstances. The move by Coinbase to accept Mastercard payments may drive other NFT markets to do the same.


The good news for the NFT industry is that major corporations are continuing to investigate and join the digital asset market. Investors will be watching how Solana-based NFTs work for OpenSea.


However, there are also downside concerns, such as illegal activities and increasing governmental supervision. Regulatory monitoring must be helpful rather than punishing in order to make the NFT market more accessible. The actions of regulators on NFTs may be connected to unlawful activities in the NFT sector.
