• Abstract: Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs) have gained a solid foothold within the crypto community, and substantial amounts of money have been allocated to their trades. In this paper, we studied one of the most prominent marketplaces dedicated to NFT auctions and trades, Foundation. We analyzed the activities on Foundation and identified several intriguing underlying dynamics that occur on this platform. Moreover, We performed social network analysis on a graph that we had created based on transferred NFTs on Foundation, and then described the characteristics of this graph. Lastly, We built a neural network-based similarity model for retrieving and clustering similar NFTs. We also showed that for most NFTs, their performances in auctions were comparable with the auction performance of other NFTs in their cluster.

  We conduct the first systematic research on the characteristics of Solana NFTs from two perspectives. Investigating users' economic activity and NFT owner information reveals that the top users in Solana NFT are skewed toward a higher distribution of purchases. We employ the Local Outlier Factor algorithm to conduct a wash trading audit on 2,175 popular Solana NFTs.

  This paper proposes an effective algorithm based on neural networks to take advantage of these investment products. A deep neural network, which outputs the allocation weight of each asset at a time interval, is trained to maximize the Sharpe ratio. A novel loss term is proposed to regulate the network's bias towards a specific asset, thus enforcing the network to learn an allocation strategy that is close to a minimum variance strategy.

  Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) represent deeds of ownership, based on blockchain technologies and smart contracts, of unique crypto assets on digital art forms (e.g., artworks or collectibles) We propose MERLIN, a novel multimodal deep learning framework designed to train Transformer-based language and visual models, along with graph neural network models, on collections of NFTs' images and texts. A key aspect in MERLIN is its independence on financial features, as it exploits only the primary data a user interested in NFT trading would like to deal with.

  The market capitalization of NFT reached 21.5 billion USD in 2021, almost 200 times of all previous transactions. The rapid decline in NFT market fever in the second quarter of 2022 casts doubts on the ostensible boom in the NFT market. By collecting data from the whole blockchain, we construct three graphs, namely NFT create graph, NFT transfer graph, and NFT hold graph, to characterize the NFT traders. We propose new indicators to quantify the activeness and value of NFT and propose an algorithm that combines indicators and graph analyses to find bubble NFTs.

• A Game of NFTs: Characterizing NFT Wash Trading in the Ethereum Blockchain [53.8917088220974]
  The Non-Fungible Token (NFT) market experienced explosive growth in 2021, with a monthly trade volume reaching $6 billion in January 2022. Concerns have emerged about possible wash trading, a form of market manipulation in which one party repeatedly trades an NFT to inflate its volume artificially. We find that wash trading affects 5.66% of all NFT collections, with a total artificial volume of $3,406,110,774.

  Numbers are essential components of text, like any other word tokens, from which natural language processing (NLP) models are built and deployed. In this work, we attempt to tap this potential of state-of-the-art NLP models and transfer their ability to boost performance in related tasks. Our proposed classification of numbers into entities helps NLP models perform well on several tasks, including a handcrafted Fill-In-The-Blank (FITB) task and on question answering using joint embeddings.
