What people say

“OG Collection”No matter what comes next and no matter the floor price, BAYC will be remembered as the OG collection which spearheaded the first NFT bull run. I hope they get a "comeback" and surprise us all! If you love NFTs, you should be rooting for this outcome as well.

“Still the pinnacle of NFT IP & Community”I joined around March 2024 with a mutant. Since then my view on web3 IP usage has completely changed. The amount of MBAs building on their own ape pfps is unheard of. Apefest 2024 in Lisbon showcased this having 25+ brands from around the world in the town center selling their products. I've also met a LOT of dope and amazing people along the way. Quite simply, the best club on the internet.

“BAYC isn’t art-it’s a lifestyle and a flex”From JPEGs to status symbols far beyond blockchain.

“The Flashy Overhyped Status Symbol Stripped of Substance”@BoredApeYC parades as the ultimate avatar club, dripping in exclusivity and celebrity endorsement. But peel back the glam, and what's left is a shallow echo chamber built on scarcity-driven narcissism and cultural posturing. The account exists primarily to remind you that “you’re not cool unless you’re in.” Its feed is a curated highlight reel—celebs flexing their apes, elite gatherings, merch drops—each post reinforcing the idea that membership equals social capital. But it offers little beyond that. Rarely is there meaningful discourse: no innovation roadmaps, no deep Web3 engagement, no genuine attempt to build beyond image. Yes, Yuga Labs has spun enormous value from BAYC—acquiring CryptoPunks, launching ApeCoin, and expanding into Metaverse land. But these moves often feel reactionary, not visionary. There’s no sense of cohesive purpose beyond expansion and profit. Each new product launch is treated as headline fodder, not community enrichment. Even the NFT art itself has become a template for speculative attention. Thousands of bored apes, each superficially unique, flood secondary markets—trading at eye-watering prices detached from artistic value or engineered utility. The account’s celebration of Dick Cheney–level wealth accumulation (“Ape #7724 sold for hundreds of thousands”) underscores how hollow the ethos can be for all but the ultra-rich. In short, @BoredApeYC is a masterclass in hype without depth. It sells an image of cultural dominance while offering little in return—no ecosystem engagement, no true utility, and no philosophical grounding. It’s the digital equivalent of an overpriced yacht party: flashy, exclusive, but ultimately vacuous.

“This is definitely the best club on the internet.”Bored Ape Yacht Club is the OG NFT project, which effectively brought forth an entire market, and inspired a generation of future builders. Bored Ape holders are amongst the most active in the space when it comes to either good vibes or positively using their IP, starting all types of businesses (food, clothing, even water, tokenproof, etc). Many things in Web3 can be traced back to BAYC. They also boast some of the highest NFT floor prices and for good reason. Not only is it a pinnacle of NFT membership, but being seen as a grail that many strive to achieve. The other BAYC holders, by and large are all very welcoming.

“Just Another NFT Project”They built a good brand, created good hyp,e made early holders rich, their dream of creating the metaverse and Ape movie never got fulfilled, hodlers lost so much money. sadly NFT meta died and the project also.

“Cultural Catalyst”Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) stands as one of the most recognizable NFT collections in the digital asset space. Launched in 2021, it has played a significant role in shaping mainstream awareness of NFTs, combining art, exclusivity, and community access. Beyond profile pictures, BAYC introduced utility-driven ownership, member events, and brand collaborations that expanded its influence beyond crypto circles.
