# Ordinal BAYC NFTs

BAYC (Bored Ape Yacht Club) NFTs or Non-Fungible Tokens are unique digital assets that exist on the Ethereum blockchain, representing ownership of a particular digital asset in the same way that physical certificates represent ownership of physical assets. However, what sets the Ordinal BAYC NFTs apart from other BAYC NFTs is that they are minted through Bitcoin Ordinals which make them very unique!

The Ordinal BAYC NFTs were created specifically for the members of Ordinal BAYC community that includes both art collectors and crypto enthusiasts. Each Ordinal BAYC NFT bears the same aesthetic as the original Bored Ape NFT, but is numbered in the top left corner with an ordinal number signifying its position in the minting sequence.

The value of each Ordinal BAYC NFT is ultimately determined by market demand, as with any other digital asset. However, rarity and desirability are major factors when considering the value of these NFTs. The lower the ordinal number, the more rare and potentially valuable the NFT can be, with the first 100 being particularly sought after by collectors.

Ordinal BAYC NFTs will have a fixed minting price which increases at every 100 NFT minted by 25%, ensuring benefits to early minters and creating market demand once Ordinal BAYC NFTs are fully minted and ready to be traded on several NFT marketplaces.

**Total amount of Ordinal BAYC NFTs is 500! No more will be ever minted.**

Overall, the Ordinal BAYC NFTs provide not just proof of ownership of a unique piece of digital artwork, but also indicate where it stands in the order of creation, adding another layer of rarity and historical significance.
