**Shaquille O'Neal Settles NFT Lawsuit Amidst Market Rebound**

Shaquille O'Neal, former NBA star and sports commentator, has agreed to an $11 million settlement in a class-action lawsuit over his promotion of Astrals NFTs. The lawsuit, filed after investors claimed financial losses due to O'Neal's involvement, accused him of being a seller of the NFTs. This settlement comes as the NFT market shows signs of recovery. October saw NFT sales volumes rise to $356 million, an 18% increase from September. The surge, driven by gains in Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies, reflects renewed interest in digital collectibles.
