Bored Ape Yacht Club Launches Sticker Pack on Telegram

The Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) has expanded its presence into the Telegram platform, introducing its first-ever sticker pack. This new development allows both collectors and traders to engage with BAYC Originals, offering a unique opportunity to participate in the digital collectibles market. The process involves several steps, starting with joining the official BAYC Telegram community, where all updates and sticker announcements are posted.

Once part of the community, users can access and purchase BAYC stickers through Telegram’s dedicated sticker bot. This bot acts as the central marketplace for sticker packs, allowing users to search for the BAYC sticker drop and choose their preferred payment method. The payment options include Telegram Stars and various cryptocurrencies such as TON, USDT, NOTCOIN, DOGS, and PX.

For those opting to use Telegram Stars, the process involves buying Stars directly from Telegram by navigating to Settings, selecting My Stars, and choosing the Buy Stars option. Alternatively, users can purchase Stars from third-party Telegram partners like fragment.com or split.tg for better rates. It is important to note that stickers bought with Stars are locked from being transferred or resold for 21 days.

Users who prefer to use cryptocurrency can do so by ensuring they have a TON-compatible wallet like @tonkeeper or @wallet_tg, which is Telegram’s built-in wallet. When viewing the sticker pack, users can tap “Open Web” to access the crypto checkout option.

After purchasing the BAYC stickers, users can engage in trading them on Telegram’s secondary marketplace. To trade, users need to add the bot @PalaceNFTbot and type /start. To list a sticker, users go to their sticker pack via @sticker_bot, select the sticker, tap Send, and transfer it to the specified Telegram ID. For selling, users need to deposit $TON to the marketplace wallet for trading and can withdraw their proceeds by sending their TON wallet address and the amount they wish to withdraw.

Additionally, alternative marketplaces like the Mrkt App allow users to connect their TON wallet and manage listings in a more streamlined interface. This process of buying, collecting, and flipping BAYC stickers on Telegram using cryptocurrency or Telegram Stars highlights the growing intersection of digital assets and social media platforms, where users can engage in transactions using both traditional and emerging forms of currency.
