Bored Ape Yacht Club's Instagram account and Discord server were both hacked on Monday, with an unofficial "mint" link being sent out to followers. From a report: "There is no mint going on today. It looks like BAYC Instagram was hacked. Do not mint anything, click links, or link your wallet to anything," the NFT project wrote on Twitter. At the time of writing, it is estimated that around 24 Bored Apes and 30 Mutant Apes have been stolen according to recent OpenSea transfers, although some of these may be holders transferring their NFTs for security purposes. The value of the 54 NFTs calculated by floor price is $13.7 million.
