Yuga Labs, the company that created the wildly popular Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT collection, is hoping to make hundreds of millions of dollars by selling off virtual plots of land. According to a leaked pitch deck obtained by The Block, the company also plans to launch a sweeping new metaverse initiative, as well as its own token.
Yuga's revenue last year reached a whopping $127 million, a figure it anticipates will reach $455 million by 2022 — largely from the sale of virtual land. This 90-slide presentation was leaked just before Yuga Labs announced a $450M round from Andreesen Horowitz, at a reported $4B valuation .
This comes after a flurry of activity in the blue-chip corner of the NFT sector: most notably, Yuga Labs announced the acquisition of the CryptoPunks and Meebits NFT projects’ intellectual property from Larva Labs just days prior. As of today, Yuga Labs owns two of the most valuable NFT projects on the market: BAYC and CryptoPunks projects have a combined trading volume of more than US$3 billion.
