The trends of Avatar NFTs rose to the peak last year of 2021 when people went insane over this new fun shift in the digital world. This year, generative avatar projects are still insanely making the buzz in the digital market, with some buyers investing billions of dollars in NFTs.

I have collected in this article the top 5 NFT projects that are widely valuable this year. However, beware that there are other successful projects out there too with even more and more generative avatar projects on the rise.

Whether you are a crypto passionate collector hungry to own the worthiest NFT avatars, or a motivated developer eager to start your own deal and make your way in the crypto world, keep reading to identify some of the best Avatar projects in 2022.

1.  CryptoPunks

Larva Labs successfully broke into the NFT avatar world back in 2017 with the well-designed CryptoPunks which actually inspired the making of many following projects. CryptoPunks included a set of 10,000 avatars and if you owned an Ethereum wallet, you could freely get the first collection of CryptoPunks.

This collection of pixel-art avatars involved different punks of ape, human, alien and even zombie. It was very special and creative with different features and some accessories that you can use. The most expensive avatar in the CryptoPunks collection was sold for $11.75 million and it is CryptoPunk#7523.

It is also important to highlight CryptoPunk#9998 which was sold for half a billion. This collection is still on the top of the avatar NFTs even after almost five years of its launch.

2.  Bored Ape Yacht Club

The Bored Ape Yacht Club or (BAYC) came with a very distinguishable feature which is the collection's cheap affordable prices that made them easier to get by crypto enthusiasts.

BAYC started at the price of 0.08 ETH per ape which perhaps influenced the collection's destiny as a whole since most of the other NFTs were highly expensive and their prices even continued to grow as more people became interested in collecting them. The Board Ape Yacht Club collection included a set of 10,000 ape avatars.

The ape avatars are not less worthy than CryptoPunks even though avatars have one similar face brand which is the ape, the collection came with a variety of different and special features like unique fun facial expressions, nice colors, attractive accessories, and other features that you can make use of. 

3.   Cool Cats NFT

Cool Cats NFT collection was launched in June 2021 and came with a set of 9,999 special cat avatars with especially different unique looks all relying on a cat cartoon that is blue colored. It is arguably said that this particular collection deserves the title of the new hottest PFP avatar project. 

It is also clear to the crowds that the collection is very expensive with (Cool Cat #1490) which sold for $3.5 million, apparently, this was the highest-priced cat in the collection. Having Cool Cat avatars will give you many bonus cards including community giveaways and other seductive offers. 

4.  Meebits

Meebits were also designed by Larva Labs, the same creators of CryptoPunks, in May 2021. The collection came with 20,000 avatars created in 3D and took part in the metaverse new world. One month later, this collection became even more influential to the point of which Meebits #17522 was sold for $3.7 million which is pretty insane. 

Some famous NFT funds providers even went for taking Meebits as an investment. Larva Labs did not only inspire the whole crypto world with CryptoPunks but even launched another highly successful NFT project.

5.  World of Women

World of Women avatar collection is surely the first NFT project that was mainly based on women as the sole character. I cannot hold myself from saying that it came a bit late but we saved the best for the last, huh!

Yam Karkai was the one who designed this fashionable collection of women avatars. The World of Women, this wonderful project was perhaps launched to create some equal opportunities of representation since other dominated avatars out there were of male characters.

Conclusion 

I have tried to inform you about the five most arguably worthiest generative avatar projects that are making the buzz right now, however, please note that if you are really thinking about actually investing in one of them, you need to undertake serious deep research about this in order to grow your knowledge and avoid potential scams. If you are a developer thinking about launching your own NFT avatar project, do not hesitate and take your shot as soon as possible, there is always enough space for you in the crypto world.
