    This week the project has also announced it donated over $200K worth of ether or 66.45 ETH to the New York-based Orangutan Outreach
    nonprofit. The company is all about protecting the “red apes” and
    focuses on orangutans located in Southeast Asia and the Indonesian
    island of Sumatra. BAYC detailed that it leveraged the Giving Block to donate to the organization.


    “Good afternoon, apes. We just donated 66.45 ETH (~208k USD) to Orangutan Outreach via the Giving Block,” the Twitter account said.


    The Swamp Club and the Bathroom


    The BAYC project’s NFTs also gives owners access to a gated community
    of NFT ape collectors. For instance, owning a BAYC gives access to the
    Swamp Club and fellow apes also started a follow group #apefollowape on Twitter. BAYC also launched “The Bathroom”
    which lets apes leverage a pixel paint canvas. The official BAYC
    Twitter account has 48.7K followers to date and the project’s follower
    count has grown exponentially during the last few weeks.

    Rumor has it Mark Cuban owns his an ape similarly to the famous people who allegedly own Cryptopunks like the rapper Jay-Z. Allegedly, the chairman of Vaynerx, Gary Vaynerchuk has shared
    a screenshot of his ape. It’s not the first time BAYC donated to animal
    charities as the project sent funds to a slew of animal-centric
    nonprofits on June 30.


    “It’s an exciting day for us here at the BAYC,” the project tweeted at the time. “We just donated 135 ETH
    (currently ~$291,000) to animal charities! We started the Bored Ape
    Kennel Club collection to reward members and give back, but never
    imagined we’d have this level of impact. Thank you, apes.”
