Some collections seem to refuse repricing below a threshold.
The visible ask floor sits at the same number for weeks. The market gets quiet, broader chain activity slows down, comparable collections drop - and this one just sits. The floor doesn't move.
That can be a sticky floor - but only if the listings are still active and the market keeps testing them.
A floor that sits because nobody's looking is a stale floor, not a sticky one.
When it's real, it usually comes from three things working together:
→ The holders who'd sell cheaper aren't listing anymore
The ones who would have flipped at a discount already did. The pieces still on the market are held by people who've decided what they'll take, and that number hasn't budged.
→ Listing friction discourages casual repricing
If it costs effort, attention, or sometimes fees to refresh a listing, sellers don't bother trimming a few percent. They'd rather wait for a buyer who meets their price than fight for marginal pricing.
→ The floor becomes a coordination point
Once a price holds for long enough, it stops being only "what someone is asking" and starts becoming the collection's reference point. Future sellers list near that level because that's where the visible market has anchored.
What a sticky floor can tell you:
→ Visible seller conviction may be high
→ The collection may have a shared price anchor among holders
→ Buyers usually have to meet the ask unless a holder needs liquidity or the broader market panics
What it doesn't tell you:
→ Whether the collection is actually liquid - a sticky floor can still have thin or inconsistent volume
→ Whether the price is correct - only that it's holding
→ Whether the next move is up
→ Whether the floor is strong or simply stale
Sticky floors can break suddenly when one conviction-holder gives up.
A floor that moves is a market doing price discovery.
A floor that refuses to move, even when tested, is sellers drawing a line.
The second one is rarer than it looks.
