PALM BEACH, Fla., March 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Yuga Labs, the maker of the multimillion-dollar Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs, just raised a $450 million seed round at a $4 billion valuation.

Yuga Labs has also just launched ApeCoin, in which the founders and executives of the startup have a substantial stake.
