Another BAYC Bites the Dust

It’s a tale as old as OpenSea. It has been reported that another Bored Ape has been sold grossly under its valuation. 

BAYC #835, one which was sold for $50,000 just this past summer, has just been sold for a mere $115. The same seller seemingly sold Mutant Ape #11670 for $25 to the same buyer as the BAYC. 

It seems the whole situation could be a hack, due to the seller known as cchan not having been aware of any transactions. 

According to The Block, “Since the purchase, the new buyer has claimed the Ape tokens from the ApeCoin airdrop. They received 12,136 Ape tokens ($180,000).”

Looking at blockchain history, it appears to be that the buyer has been placing bids on multiple Bored Apes in DAI, perhaps hoping to bait someone into thinking the transaction is in ETH and accepting the sale. The seller in this situation just may have fallen for this scheme.
