Bored Ape Yacht Club is a collection of over 10,000 collectable NFTs created programmatically from 170 unique traits. They are stored as ERC-721 tokens and operate on the Ethereum blockchain. In March 2022, a coin connected to the Bored Ape NFT operations was also issued: ApeCoin. ApeCoin's market capitalization on the date of last updating this review (14 September 2022) was USD 1.54 billion and the price per token was USD 5.00.

Each Bored Ape artwork also serves as the membership card of the Yacht Club to get access to members-only benefits. Owners of Bored Ape NFTs can access the digital graffiti board known as the “The Bathroom Wall”. One can even adopt a virtual dog through Bored Ape Yacht Club.

Bored Ape Yacht Club is created by Yuga Labs LLC. It is based out of Delaware and was founded in February 2021.

NFT is an acronym for “Non-Fungible Tokens”. Something which is fungible is replaceable. For instance, one kilo of 24 karat gold is – at least in theory – replaceable with any other kilo of 24 karat gold. When something is non-fungible, it means that it is unique, and not replaceable with any other item out there.

Although NFTs are conceptually similar to cryptocurrencies, these digital assets might represent antiques & artworks, collectables like trading cards, and other items with unique features. These tokens are stored cryptographically in a blockchain network for authentication and validation. Even when transacting, each token is sold as a whole, unlike cryptocurrencies which are divisible into smaller units. NFTs lose their value when split into smaller portions, however, they can be duplicated by the artist and each additional copy can be sold separately (but the total number of duplicates will then always be known).
