The Golden Fur Bored Ape NFT is valued at $1.5 million

A golden fur ape was recently purchased for 777 Eth, or $1,478,000 USD, by Vis.Eth, a member of the Bored Ape Yacht Club, a deal that has attracted attention due to the prevailing market conditions.

This sale, however, shows that NFT backers like Vis.Eth think Bored Ape Yacht Club, or BAYC, has potential even outside of the present bear market.

In an interview with the Bored Ape Gazette, Vis.Eth said: “I wanted to collect a golden monkey. 777eth is a suitable price. Yuga will be the first successful social verse.”

The sale, however, is not the first significant one for Vis.first Eth.

The NFT enthusiast had previously paid $4,500 ETH, or $9,000,000 USD, for Otherdeeds.
