Singapore / April 12 / – APENFT Marketplace announces the debut of Chinese Digital Zodiac Heads, the revolutionary rare NFT art collection that will showcase digital modernity with Chinese traditional heritage. Justin Sun released exclusive details about the headpieces soon to be launched on April 15 at 8 p.m. SGT.
H.E. Justin Sun recently purchased the complete set of “Twelve Digital Zodiac Heads” on March 31 for over $1.5 million at the Twelve Digital Zodiac Heads Special Auction hosted by Metapoly XM, a brand under Poly Auction (Xiamen).
For the first time, a rare art piece in the digital form will debut in an auction hall of the decentralized world.
In partnership with APENFT Marketplace, Sun will list the Monkey Head NFT from the “Twelve Digital Zodiac Heads” collection as the first NFT collectible for sale following the APENFT Marketplace Mainnet launch on April 15 at 8 p.m. SGT.
APENFT plans to set the starting price at 666 WTRX. The highest bidder will take home the valuable Monkey Head NFT.
During the auction, the top three highest bidders on each day will also be rewarded with a Regular Genesis NFT. Bidders stand a chance to receive extra bonuses offered by APENFT Marketplace.
The highest bidder will be awarded a Legendary Genesis NFT; the second-highest bidder recorded when the auction concludes will receive an exclusive Monkey Head-themed Epic Genesis NFT; the third-highest bidder will earn a WIN NFT HORSE NFT-themed Zodiac Animal Head.
One of the animal heads will also be introduced as a rare, special-breed horse in WIN NFT HORSE, a horse racing game co-launched by the APENFT Foundation and WINkLink on the TRON blockchain.
The Monkey Head NFT has significant symbolic value in Chinese culture, as monkeys represent intelligence and rebellion. The combination of the Monkey Head NFT and APENFT Marketplace marks the debut of ancient artworks in the decentralized world.
“Twelve Digital Zodiac Heads” NFT collection is inspired by the twelve zodiac animals, an important symbol of Chinese culture and its mythology. Every newborn is assigned an auspicious animal based on their birth year. These animals are unchangeable marks that follow each Chinese throughout their life.
The zodiac animal marks serve as a bond to maintain national pride and connection to their shared Chinese heritage. The twelve Old Summer Palace bronze heads are the rarest amongst all the physical embodiments of these symbols.
The NFT collection will showcase the harmony of Chinese culture and the decentralized world. Sun hopes that this auction will revolutionize the way the world keeps its heritage alive.
