frens, it's true! Eminem is a Bored Ape now! Look! He even changed his Twitter profile pic like all the cool kids do. The Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT that he bought looks almost identical too him too, so it was written in the stars. Or written in the blockchain rather.
This isn't Marshall's first NFT purchase
Much like Snoop Dogg AKA Cozomo de Medici, Eminem has started building his NFT portfolio. While Snoop has been doing this for quite some time, Em could easily build the same size portfolio pretty quickly. It took me a bit of digging but I found Eminem's Ethereum address and just had to take a look. I started at this article where Eminem buys this Bored ape for $450k. From there, I headed to Geegazza's Twitter page to grab his ETH address. Easy enough, geegazza.eth. Off to OpenSea!
I found where he bought the Ape initially for only 6 ETH. Must be fuckin nice! What a deal. It took me a minute to find the actual sale of the EminApe. It was actually transferred to Gee's vault wallet first.
Currently the vault wallet only holds 3 NFTs so I guess it's just a second wallet that will eventually be used to store high value NFTs. After a quick search in the Activity, I saw the EminApe being sold to Slim Shady himself. Pretty fuckin neat.
Eminem's rather small NFT collection is very interesting. He has his $450,000 Bored Ape right next to a CryptoJunk pixelated dick. Very Slim Shady-esque I would say. Since buying his Bored Ape, he has also started minting other Ethereum NFTs. He's not a stupid guy. He sees the value. A place to park wealth.
I couldn't help but take a peak at Etherscan to see what other crypto he might be holding in this address. Looks like he's only keeping enough ETH in there to pay minting and gas fees at the moment, but I did find another interesting wallet that sent him his first 125 ETH. I'd assume that maybe this is his manager or a friend. I had to take a peak at that address of course. georgio.eth
Whoever sent Eminem this 125 ETH has $140,000 worth of aave interest bearing aWBTC tokens in their wallet. This is a very old wallet and a very active one as well with like 3500 transactions. Makes me wonder if it's Eminem's wallet.
I can't wait for Eminem to rap about his Bored Ape purchase. This is only going to bring even more demand to the BAYC collection which continues to blow my mind. The sheer amount of volume within this collection of jpegs is fucking insane. Well, this was fun. I'm off to bed. Have a good day/night!
Thanks for reading! Much love.
