The NFT Universe captures the invisible web of SuperRare, one of the first and most prominent NFT platforms. Mapped for The New York Times Essay "The Art World Usually Works in Secret. Here's a Look Inside" by Barabasi, it shows each NFT sold on SuperRare between April 2018 and April 2021, linked to all NFTs once owned by the same collector.

The identity of the works and the collectors can be explored at the interactive page: http://nft.barabasilab.com/gexf-js/primary.htm
