Around 5% of circulating rare sats have been sequestered to date. The rate of sequestering has increased over the last year as hunters have become more advanced. Additionally, new sats are always getting mined, so there is a constant stream of new sats.
The price of an uncommon sat is a good benchmark. Early last year, they were selling for over $1000, when sequestered supply was very low - there were almost no hunters. By the summer, this price came down to below $100. As ordinals came back late summer, the price of uncommons climbed as high as $350 or so, and now it is back down to about $140.
The demand comes from two groups:
- collectors who are buying to hold or speculate
- project founders who are launching a collectibles or art project, and want to inscribe their content on special sats to give it more weight in the market
