Where the floor price comes from
ApePredictor takes the lowest asking price from the listings it tracks. The figure above includes the time those listings were last checked. If the data is delayed, the page says so beside the price.
You may see a different floor on a marketplace. The two services might cover different venues or have checked at different times. The cheapest listing could also have been withdrawn since our last check. Open the listing to confirm that you can still buy at the quoted ask.
You can read the public market summary without a membership. Individual listing details are available through the member Floor Apes view. Collector has a listing delay; see the membership plans for details.
Floor price, sale price and fair value
| Question | Useful evidence |
|---|---|
| What is the lowest tracked asking price? | Collection floor, with its observation time |
| What did a buyer actually pay? | A completed sale and its transaction evidence |
| How does this particular Ape compare? | Individual estimate, uncertainty and relevant sales |
| Is this listing below its model estimate? | Ask-to-estimate gap for the same Ape |
Different traits and combinations can move an Ape's market value away from the floor. The valuation guide explains how to interpret an individual estimate, while Deal Radar compares listings with those estimates.
Why the floor can move without a sale
Suppose the cheapest seller withdraws their listing. The next-lowest ask becomes the floor, even though nobody bought anything. A new listing below the current floor can push it down just as quickly. A change in the floor alone tells you little about what holders have earned.
Keep the currency consistent when comparing prices over time. The floor can stay flat in ETH while its dollar value changes with the ETH exchange rate. This page quotes prices in ETH.
How to compare floor-priced Apes
Check the observation time
Use the timestamp beside the market summary. If the update is delayed or unavailable, use the app and recheck the marketplace.
Open the Floor Apes tab
Members can browse the lowest tracked asking prices and open the corresponding Ape pages.
Compare the specific Ape
Open the Ape's valuation and sales history. Compare the asking price with the model range and look for recent sales of similar Apes. The cheapest listing may still be expensive for what it is.
BAYC floor-price questions
Can I sell my Ape instantly at the floor?
You would still need a buyer willing to pay your asking price. Listing at the floor puts you among the cheapest sellers, but it doesn't ensure an immediate sale.
Does this include Mutant Apes?
No. These prices cover the original Bored Ape Yacht Club collection. Mutant Apes have a separate market and floor price.
Why might the number differ from a marketplace?
Check when each price was updated and which listings it covers. The marketplace can also show changes that happened after our last check.
