THE BORED APE GAZETTE

Crypto and NFTs may be in a bear market, but ATS is staying bullish, and comfy, after adding a second hoodie wearing CryptoPunk to his multi-million dollar NFT collection. On Saturday, ATS.eth purchased CryptoPunk #4770 from Bored Ape Yacht Club Member Camembert for 117 ETH, or about $236,000 USD. After the purchase, the Gazette reached out to ATS for comment, but he did not immediately respond. While we do not know exactly why he decided to make this move, one thing is c

From fate to last second flight changes, the stars aligned around the swamp as Bored Ape Yacht Club member Kiki made it to this week’s New York City Apes meetup, even though she lives nearly 7,000 miles away in South Korea! Earlier this month, BAYC member Kiki saw fellow primate Kraytrain’s tweet about an upcoming event in the Big Apple and knew she had to be there. “No club, no apes. Wherever apes are at is where I belong,” Kiki told the Gazette. “I saw Kraytrain’s post, a

Bored Ape Yacht Club members searching for their primates, missing Mutants, and wayward doggos, let not your heart be troubled. The Rillaz have created a new tool that’s bringing NFT families back together! An OG Bored Ape, its matching number Bored Ape Kennel Club dog, and its M1 and M2 Mutant Apes, full sets like these have become increasingly rare around the swamp, as Yuga Labs NFT families have been split up amid the highs and lows of crypto over the last five years. And

People Powered Positivity has a nice ring to it, and for some Del Mundos, now a necklace too. Earlier this week, Del Mundos kicked off its new 3Ditions auction protocol with its Silver Spoon drop, featuring 100 “3” silver pendants inspired by Ray Del Mundo’s iconic JewelleRay chain. In just 24 hours, the project raised 3.5 ETH, with proceeds set to go toward a conservation effort of holders’ choice. A big chunk of that 3.5 ETH came from the auction’s top bidder, CryptoPunk

From static, monochromatic NFTs to pixelated people with onchain personalities and memories, the Normies are becoming anything but normal. On Friday, Normies founder and Web3 artist Serc took to the timeline to announce that the collection will soon be coming to life in an X article titled, “Something Is Waking Up on Ethereum: Normie Agents.” “A collection of 10,000 monochrome pixel faces, minted, traded, burned, edited, is starting to talk. Not through a Twitter bot. Not t

From Michigan to New York, Apes are proving that IRL is the alpha, opening the door to lifelong bonds and a network that simply wouldn’t be possible without NFTs! But while most regional Bored Ape Yacht Club communities are meeting up for drinks and dinner, one Florida Man Ape is taking things up a notch with a paintball get together. Next month, BAYC member ApeWhale is bringing the swamp to the paintball field in Tampa, inviting everyone to ape in and shoot it out with their

Three is a magic number, but 3.5 is even better! On Wednesday, the Del Mundos’ Silver Spoon auction of 100 “3” silver pendants, each inspired by their mascot Ray Del Mundo’s iconic JewelleRay chain, raised 3.5 ETH, or about $7,250 USD, for people powered positivity, proving this quirky onchain community is serious about doing good. “Well …That was a success,” the project tweeted. “Edition 001 - Auction complete. 3.5 Eth (and rising) Raised for the Climeta treasury. Big than

As Bored Ape Yacht Club members continue getting together around the globe, Yuga Labs’ Chief Product Officer Michael Figge is hinting that something even bigger may be coming up. During Thursday’s Meet at the Clubhouse Space, Figge spoke about how much he and the team have loved seeing Apes come together in real life and teased that a larger event may be in the works for May. ‘Part of the Bored Ape Yacht Club is you do club things,” he said. “I think we are starting to see a

From the very first days of the Bored Ape Yacht Club to now, real life has always been the alpha! Yesterday, longtime Bored Ape Yacht Club members KrayTrain and Josh Ong brought around 30 Big Apple Apes together at fellow primate and Re_Generates co-founder Jed’s DeStefano’s Steakhouse in Brooklyn, where steaks were cooked just right, Ojulo tequila (bought by ApeCoin CEO Cameron Kates and made by Adam Weitsman) flowed, and early BAYC vibes, the kind that brought people to the

Clutch Markets is bringing bark and byte to Ethereum following its Pixel Pups free mint and K9 token drop, where each dog is backed by 1,000,000 tokens. It’s been a woof week across Web3 after Clutch Markets’ 0xSimpleFarmer invited NFT holders from ApeChain and Ethereum mainnet to adopt a doggo from his new Ethereum based collection, Pixel Pups. As the Gazette previously reported, SimpleFarmer said he sees this collection as an opportunity for ApeChain to reach a new, Eth
