According to a tweet by renegademaster, host of the NFT talk show The DYOR Show, land sales by Yuga Labs will be conducted through a Dutch auction, with the starting bid for land set at 600 APE, approximately $9,500.
Holders of Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) and Mutant Ape Yacht Club (MAYC) will receive a total of 30,000 free tokens, while holders of CryptoPunks, Meebits, Cool Cats, Nouns, World of Women, and CryptoToadz will qualify for whitelist status.
Similar news has been circulating on social media in recent days, causing APE's price to surge over 35% this week.
Furthermore, by observing the OpenSea 24-hour trading volume rankings, it can be seen that several of the mentioned blue-chip projects have made the list, with significant increases in weekly trading volume.
Community Reactions
In addition to investors who view this news positively, many are concerned that using APE as a payment token will greatly reduce market liquidity. If 70,000 parcels of land are sold for 600 APE each, 15% of the current market circulating supply will be held by Yuga Labs, leading to more volatile APE prices and a concentration of tokens in the hands of Yuga Labs.
