The final results are stunning, ranging from intricate realism to painterly impressionist scenes moody cityscapes and fantasy styles, but all with a form that will be instantly recognisable to anyone who's been following the NFT scene – Yuga Labs' original Bored Ape.
With the market now saturated with profile-pic collections that people buy in the hope of flipping for a profit, Artsy Monke took a different route, aiming to make art that people would simply enjoy collecting and holding. It retains the excitement behind minting a new Ape, not knowing how it would turn out, but introduces a fine art element that the team felt was missing.
It backed up its philosophy by selling at a cheap price too, at just 0.01 ETH – Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs now sell for around 85 ETH . The 10,000-piece collection has already sold out and new buyers can only buy from existing owners on the NFT marketplace . Prices remain low, but that could change: Artsy Monke are planning to launch Artsy Monkeland, a metaverse themepark that only Artsy Monke NFT holders will be able to enter to access Play to Earn video games.
"We wanted Artsy Monke to be pieces of art that you could hang on your wall, but also, by using Web3 technology, we can also let holders access the Artsy Monke games and earn real money," the project's blockchain developer Dan Hovey said."The more Monke NFT you hold, the more games you can play and the more money you can earn."
