On January 20, Neymar updated his profile photo and avatar to the Bored Ape 6633. The soccer player spent 159.99 ETH for the monkey, according to OpenSea’s history. Using the current ETH pricing as a guide, the price would be roughly $481.6K USD. This implies a gain of more than 66 percent in less than a month after the identical ape sold for 96 ETH.
However, Ape 6633 is not Neymar’s only NFT. The soccer player also owns an even more pricey ape, Ape 5269, which he purchased for 189.69 ETH, or more than $570K at current pricing.
Neymar’s most precious monkey has laser eyes, a common trend among maximalist bitcoiners who believe that the price of Bitcoin will rise.
The Apes were later transferred from Neymar’s “EneJay” account to another called “EneJayVault,” most likely for security reasons.
In addition to the costly Apes, Neymar possesses NFTs from the ACESnikers fashion line, as well as others from the Flipped BAYC, flipped CryptoPunks, and flipped Doodles.
Neymar is also the owner of the ENS Neymar-loves-rarepepes.eth so If anyone wants to give him any NFTs concerning.

NFTs and their grown popularity
NFTs have grown in popularity in recent months, thanks to the involvement of large corporations, celebrities, athletes, and well-known musicians.
BAYC NFTs serve as avatars and membership tokens for an online social club. They were founded in April 2021 with a starting price of 0.08ETH and have since grown in popularity to become the most valuable collection, exceeding the floor price of the extremely popular Crypto Punks.
Twitter has announced an NFT verification service, allowing users to show their NFTs in a specific frame to establish that they are the true owners of a certain Avatar. In this approach, they refute the narrative of some detractors who say that simply keeping a copy of an NFT picture is sufficient to own it.
For the time being, NFTs are mostly used for speculative and aesthetic purposes, although they may become more widely used in the future. NFTs will be used in-game and software development to represent items in the metaverse, and prospective use cases in the supply chain, politics, and identity verification are currently being investigated.
