The Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) is a collection of 10,000 unique Bored Ape NFTs— unique digital collectibles living on the Ethereum blockchain. Bored Ape NFTs are one the most expensive, and successful NFT projects featuring images of punky apes with unimpressed expressions and human clothes on their sometimes-multicolored, sometimes-metal bodies.
Bored Apes are procedurally-generated and each can inherit between 4 and 7 traits out of a possible 170.
5 most expensive Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs.
#1 Bored Ape #8817
- Price: $3,408,000
- Owner: 22DD88
The most expensive BAYC NFT is Bored Ape #8817, which sold for the towering sum of $3.4 million. While it isn’t the rarest NFT in the collection (it’s listed as the 17th rarest at Rarity Tools), its desirability comes from its combination of rare traits. Bored Ape #8817 sports gold fur against an orange background, with a comical spinner hat on its head and a blue and white party horn hanging out of its mouth.
#2 Bored Ape #3749
- Price: $2.9 million
- Owner: The Sandbox
Bored Ape #3749, also known as “The Captain,” is the next most expensive Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT on this list. It is a Golden Ape NFT resonating with a “cool dude” with its Black T-shirt positioned on a yellow background.
The Rarity score of 283.99 is justified by the combination of its Solid Gold fur and shooting Laser beaming eyes.
#3 Bored Ape #232
- Price: $2.8 million
- Owner: Chain CEO Deepak Thapliyal
The transaction of Bored Ape #232 took place on the NFT marketplace LooksRare at 1080.69 ETH or $2.9 million.
Its Golden fur–the trait that is found in 0.46 percent of Bored Apes in the BAYC collection, makes this NFT unique. It features an ape rocking the overall look of a Smocking jacket and a Seaman’s hat. Sleepy eyes accompanied the trademarked, Bored expression.
Bored Ape #232 is the 503rd-rarest BAYC NFT.
#4 Bored Ape #8585
- Price: $2.7 million
- Owner: DrinkNeuro-Vault
Bored Ape #8585 is perhaps the grooviest-looking ape on this list, featuring a trippy fur and heart-shaped glasses combo, topped off with a regal crown. This sale got a lot of hype, mainly because of its boosted price, but also because it kickstarted a trend for collecting the trippy fur apes, which are among some of the rarest in the BAYC collection.
#5 Bored Ape #2087
- Price: $2.3 million
- Owner: 82D438
Bored Ape #2087 has a top rarity score of 312.34 on Rarity Tools. It’s also the most minimal bored ape so far, with just three traits listed in its attributes. Based on a purple background, this Bored Ape is another cigarette smoker with trippy fur and an angry expression in its eyes.
