This is the opening chapter in a new tale that will offer a first-of-its-kind experience for all BAYC and MAYC holders

Yuga Labs has finally launched the "Trial of Jimmy the Monkey" after several weeks of anticipation. A month ago, toward the end of the month, the event was first publicized. But it started on December 21 after a brief video teaser was released. The story is a new BAYC installment that demonstrates the approach Yuga Labs is adopting with its works.

"This is the opening chapter in a new tale that will offer a first-of-its-kind experience for all BAYC and MAYC holders," the firm said in a statement. Along the journey, bits of the story will be revealed; pay attention to the signals because certain information may be crucial later on. Late January will see the culmination of everything with a free, interactive, playable mint experience for BAYC and MAYC holders.

Once you've minted your NFTs, keep an eye out for theft so you don't lose them when you need them. The trial, which will happen in 2023, "is a prelude to a series of activations."

"The Past, Present, Future," which begins on December 28, is one of the activities you may look forward to. Then "Prepare for the Mint" will begin on January 11. On January 18, one week later, the "Multi-week Interactive Mint" will start. Additionally, there will be a "Mint Reveal" on February 8. After that, "The Story Continues" on a future date that has not yet been determined.

Jimmy The Monkey's Trial by Yuga Labs Has Different Tiers

Having stated that, each participant will receive a different amount of mint. Different tiers apply to those who possess Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) or Mutant Yacht Club (MAYC) or Bored Ape Kennel Club (BAKC) items. There will also be an optional $APE spend mechanic, the business continues, "for those wishing to enhance their minting experience."

A chart posted on the official website indicates that Tire 1 is made up of a Mutant Ape and Tire 2 is made up of a Mutant Ape and a BAKC. There is a bored ape at Tier 3 and one in Tier 4 as well as a BACK dog. You rise in rank in direct proportion to the level of the tier.
