The Photographer That Made $1.4M Profit On Bored Ape NFT NFT
On Dec. 13, Emmy nominated photographer John Knopf announced that he had sold his Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) NFT.
The statement would not have been a thing of note if he hadn’t got 347 ETH for the piece. Knopf stated that he originally purchased the astronaut laser eyes ape number 9452 on the day it was minted for just 0.08 ETH.
The massive sale has netted him around $1.39 million in profit at current ETH prices. In response to the sale, an emotional Knopf said, “I am at a loss for words right now. I am crying so much. Thank you, BoredApeYC, for completely changing my life and everyone in the community!!!”
