Things were anything but boring around the swamp last night when Bored Ape Yacht Club member Derek ripped open a box of Mudwater and pulled one of the trading card game's coveted serialized cards!
Following a recent change to Mudwater's $Ape Reflections program that prioritizes rare cards over sealed boxes and packs, Derek decided it was time to rip some wax and see what was inside!
“I opened the two boxes because of the reflection points update for cards,” he said. “ Its smart to have an incentive to open boxes and packs. Everyone wants to see people open packs. I had just pulled a legendary foil in a previous box, so hitting a serialized in the following box was a crazy back to back experience.”
And what a pull it was!
Derek scored the 2/5 Elevator Ride card, featuring a peephole view of the Club's mascot Curtis rocking a hoodie and smoking a cigar in the hallway!
Derek's Elevator Ride is just the second publicly reported serialized Mudwater pull onchain. As the Gazette previously reported, BAYC member PugMeWontDie pulled the first, a 4/5 Signal Rift card, last week!
Even before this rare pull, Derek was already deep in the Mudwater! After attending ApeFest, where he got two physical boxes signed by popular artist Beeple and Yuga Labs CEO Michael Figge, he purchased even more boxes on eBay to rip and has amassed a collection of 2,375 Mudwater cards onchain, according to OpenSea data!
“Its been fun collecting both digitally and physically,” he said.
As of Friday evening, Derek has listed his 2/5 Elevator Ride card on OpenSea for 420 SOL, or roughly $32,500 USD!
“If anyone wants to make a record buy for Mudwater,” he said. “We haven't had any serialized cards sell yet, so that would be historic in another way. I'd probably regret it years later.”
