A Bored Ape Receives Airdrop of Tens of Thousands of Dollars
Calculated at around $7.6 per airdrop:
- BAYC holders: 10,094 tokens worth $76,714

- BAYC + BAKC holders: 10,950 tokens worth $83,220

Binance is expected to open trading at 10:30 pm, with market prices reflecting fair value more accurately. Currently estimated at 1 billion tokens, it ranks around the top 20 by market capitalization, higher than Chainlink and FTX token.
Contract Market Shows More Bears
The contract market is dominated by bears, with a negative funding rate before the deadline and a trading volume of $116 million.
Preliminary Analysis
According to TokenInsight's analysis, if ApeCoin is priced at $5, the fully diluted valuation will reach $5 billion, exceeding the $2.5 billion of the gaming guild YGG, and roughly equivalent to Decentraland. If the price is $10, the FDV will be $10 billion, approximately equal to Sandbox's $9.7 billion.
Furthermore, in an especially optimistic scenario, if the price reaches $30, the airdrop value received by BAYC holders will be around $300,000, nearly the current floor price of BAYC in the secondary market.
