Sotheby’s estimates the BAYC sale will total $12 million to $18 million, while that for the Bored Ape Kennel Club will fetch $1.5 million to $2 million, according to a press release. Sotheby’s will accept ether, bitcoin and USDC as payment options for the auction, which will be facilitated through Coinbase Commerce.
The Bored Apes Yacht Club is the second-most popular NFT collection by total trade volume (136,107 ETH) behind CryptoPunks, according to rarity.tools. The floor price at the time of writing for the cheapest available Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT on the open market is 48.8 ETH, or $165,578.

The winner of the Sotheby’s BAYC auction will also be awarded six “mutant serums,” which allow their owner to generate a new Mutant Ape NFT from one of the existing Bored Apes in the collection.
