Welcome to
The Pirates Art
Private club

BUY AN APE ON OPENSEA ADDITION BUTTON

BAYC is a collection of 10,000 Pirates NFTs—unique digital collectibles living on the Ethereum blockchain. Your Pirates doubles as your Private club membership card, and grants access to members-only benefits. Future areas and perks can be unlocked by the community through roadmap activation.

The specs

Each Pirates is unique and programmatically generated from over 170 possible traits, including expression, headwear, clothing, and more. All apes are dope, but some are rarer than others.

The Pirates are stored as ERC-721 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain and hosted on IPFS.

Welcome to the club

When you buy a Pirates, you’re not simply buying an avatar or a provably-rare piece of art. You are gaining membership access to a club whose benefits and offerings will increase over time. Your Pirat can serve as your digital identity, and open digital doors for you.
