Founded in 2021, Yuga Labs is a digital asset incubation studio focused on shaping the future of Web3 through storytelling, experiences, and community. Yuga Labs is home to some of the most successful non-fungible token collections including Bored Ape Yacht Club, Mutant Ape Yacht Club, Bored Ape Kennel Club, Twelvefold, Otherdeeds, and more.
Last week, Yuga Labs teamed up with Nina Chanel Abney, the digital artist behind the Super Cool World non-fungible token collection, to launch an airdrop to its holders.

The crypto and NFT community on X (formerly Twitter) has questioned his artistry, conceptual orientation, and perspectives on social issues related to racial and gender discourses.
