The top artist at the back of Bored Ape Yacht Club (a collection of non-fungible tokens), called “All Seeing Seneca,” has put a grand impact on the world of NFT. The earliest move of Seneca by entering the metaverse was a project of character designing given by Yuga Labs, sketching a handful of fragmented-looking primates’ cartoons, to be included into a collection of NFTs that collected more than $1B trading valuation since the later period of April. Presently, the New Yorker artist intends to issue another series of digital collectibles.
Seneca and the apes
She stated that the project moved from zero to almost an empire of billion dollars. It is even now somewhat surreal as she was recently drawing it on the table thereof, she added. The respective experience, she mentioned, pursued her to get a Web3 exposure which she has been gaining daily following that time. Launched on the behalf of four developers (known by their pseudonyms), the BAYC (Bored Ape Yacht Club) collection incorporates a list of up to 10,000 NFTs, which are normally utilized by the holders to be the pictures placed on the online profiles thereof.
In October, one ape sold in return for up to $3.4M at the auction house of Sotheby. Grand names such as Post Malone, Steph Curry, and jimmy Fallon have all bought an ape. She additionally mentioned that with her recent arrival in the latest space she, at once, witnessed everyone having her drawing as the profile pictures providing a moment where she got convinced to do more effort in the respective field. She further explained that ape’s designing was fun for her in the project and she was glad to see a lot of people linking themselves with the ape.
Further than apes
Seneca will issue her latest five-piece collection of NFTs at Miami’s exhibition named ICONOCLAST on 4th December. The minting of the respective NFTs will be carried out on the network of Ethereum and hosted on the Web3 venue thereof called The Internet Computer. It is most likely that Art Basel will be the forum for the auction of four among them and the fifth one is potentially reserved to be seemingly auctioned next year at Sotheby’s. Notwithstanding her initial NFT collection’s fame, Seneca disclosed that she feels a bit nervous.
