What Are BAYC And MAYC Shadow NFTs?

Bored Ape Yacht Club Shadow (BAYCS) and Mutant Ape Yacht Club Shadow (MAYCS) are non-fungible tokens (NFTs) that function as cross-chain ownership representations of their parent assets, the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) and Mutant Ape Yacht Club (MAYC) collections, which reside on the Ethereum blockchain.1 Developed by Yuga Labs, the creator of the BAYC ecosystem, these Shadow NFTs exist primarily on ApeChain, a dedicated blockchain for the ApeCoin community.2

The primary purpose of these Shadow NFTs is to facilitate the migration of the ApeCoin ($APE) staking mechanism from the high-fee environment of Ethereum to the more efficient ApeChain.3 This is achieved without requiring users to bridge their valuable and often culturally significant original NFTs, a process that traditionally introduces significant security risks. Instead, the system utilizes LayerZero’s lzRead protocol, an interoperability technology that allows for bridge-less verification of asset ownership across different blockchains.2 By serving as a “staking key” on ApeChain that mirrors the ownership of the original asset on Ethereum, the Shadow NFT enhances security for holders and improves the overall user experience for participating in the ApeCoin ecosystem.1

History and Development

Conceptual Origins in the ApeCoin DAO

The concept of a “Shadow NFT” originated not within Yuga Labs, but from within its decentralized community. In May 2022, a proposal titled “AIP Idea: Shadow NFTs: a path to adding new functionality to BAYC/MAYC/BAKC NFTs” was submitted to the ApeCoin DAO governance forum.4 The proposal identified two fundamental challenges facing owners of high-value legacy NFT collections like BAYC.

First, it addressed the significant security dilemma where owners had to choose between utility and safety. To participate in activities such as staking, airdrop claims, or other decentralized applications (dApps), holders were required to connect wallets containing assets worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars to various smart contracts, exposing them to phishing attacks and contract vulnerabilities.4 The proposed solution was a “shadow NFT” or “sNFT,” a copy of the original that could be held in a separate, less secure “hot” wallet for interactions, while the priceless original asset remained isolated in a secure “cold” storage wallet.4 If the sNFT were ever compromised, it could be recovered by the owner of the original, mitigating the risk of catastrophic loss.4

Second, the proposal tackled the issue of contract immutability. The original smart contracts for BAYC and MAYC were created before many modern blockchain functionalities were standardized and, being non-upgradable, could not have new features like staking added to them directly.4 The sNFT was envisioned as a proxy that could be imbued with new functionalities, effectively upgrading the capabilities available to NFT holders without altering the original, hardened contracts.4 The proposal explicitly suggested that these sNFTs could serve as a “key” to access NFT-specific staking pools for ApeCoin, a use case that would become their primary function.4

The author of the DAO proposal presciently noted the potential risks, including the necessity of an official endorsement from Yuga Labs. Without Yuga’s “blessing,” it was argued, any community-led effort could lead to market confusion and create opportunities for scammers to launch phishing sites, thereby undermining the security benefits the sNFT was meant to provide.4 This acknowledgment of the need for centralized support foreshadowed the project’s eventual development path, illustrating a sophisticated understanding within the community of the practical limitations of purely decentralized initiatives in a high-stakes ecosystem.

Development and Implementation by Yuga Labs

The community-generated concept was ultimately adopted and brought to fruition by Yuga Labs, marking a transition from decentralized ideation to centralized, professional execution. The technical development was spearheaded by the pseudonymous developer 0xQuit, a key figure at Yuga Labs frequently identified as the VP of Blockchain or a “smart contracts expert and security wizard extraordinaire”.3 His leadership signaled Yuga Labs’ official commitment to refining and implementing the Shadow NFT concept as a core component of its ecosystem strategy.2

The implementation of Shadow NFTs was inextricably linked to the strategic launch of ApeChain, an Arbitrum Orbit-based Layer-3 network designed to serve as the dedicated infrastructure for the ApeCoin ecosystem.8 ApeChain offered a high-throughput, low-cost environment ideal for gaming and other applications, but its success depended on integrating the ecosystem’s flagship Ethereum-based assets.2 Shadow NFTs provided the critical technological bridge to achieve this integration without compromising the security of the original assets.

The official rollout of the technology culminated on April 15, 2025, with the migration of the ApeCoin staking pools from Ethereum to ApeChain. On this date, BAYC and MAYC Shadow NFTs were formally activated as the “staking keys,” replacing the original NFTs for all staking-related functions on the new platform.3 This development trajectory, from a forum post to a core feature of a multi-billion dollar ecosystem, serves as a prominent example of the hybrid governance and development model emerging in mature Web3 projects, where community proposals can inform and guide the strategic initiatives of a central corporate entity.

Technical Architecture

The technical design of Shadow NFTs represents a significant evolution in cross-chain asset interoperability, prioritizing security for high-value, non-fungible assets over the conventional methods used for fungible tokens.

Core Concept: Cross-Chain Ownership Mirroring

At its core, a Shadow NFT is an ERC-721 token on a secondary chain (ApeChain) that is designed to mirror the ownership of a corresponding NFT on a primary chain (Ethereum).1 The defining innovation of this system is that it achieves this mirroring without resorting to traditional asset bridging mechanisms.

In a typical “lock-and-mint” bridge, an asset on a source chain is locked within a smart contract, and a synthetic or “wrapped” version of that asset is then minted on the destination chain. While functional, this model concentrates immense value within the bridge contract, creating a single, high-value target for exploits that have historically resulted in hundreds of millions of dollars in losses. The Shadow NFT architecture circumvents this vulnerability by allowing the original, high-value asset to remain in its owner’s wallet on Ethereum at all times for most interactions. Instead of locking the asset, the system employs a cross-chain messaging protocol to read the ownership status on Ethereum and replicate that status for the corresponding Shadow NFT on ApeChain.2

Role of LayerZero and lzRead

The technological backbone enabling this bridge-less ownership verification is LayerZero, a generic messaging protocol designed for cross-chain communication.1 The system specifically leverages a LayerZero function known as lzRead, which empowers a smart contract on one blockchain to query data from another blockchain in near real-time without altering the on-chain state of either network.2

The process works as follows: an application on ApeChain (e.g., the ApeCoin staking contract) needs to verify the owner of a specific BAYC NFT. It submits a request through lzRead to retrieve the ownership data from the BAYC contract on Ethereum. This request is routed through a “decentralized verifier network” (DVN), which fetches the relevant data, for instance, the result of an ownerOf(tokenId) call, directly from the Ethereum blockchain. The DVN then returns a cryptographically provable and trustless result to the contract on ApeChain. This allows the ApeChain application to confirm ownership and authorize subsequent actions, such as staking rewards, all while the actual BAYC NFT never leaves the security of its owner’s wallet on Ethereum.2 This design accepts a minor trade-off in transactional immediacy, as the cross-chain read introduces a delay of up to 60 seconds, in exchange for a monumental increase in security.1

The Beacon Contract

The entire Shadow NFT system is orchestrated by a central smart contract known as the Beacon contract.1 This contract serves as the command-and-control center for the lifecycle of all Shadow NFTs. Its key responsibilities include:

  • Coordinating Cross-Chain Messaging: It manages the configuration and execution of ownership reads across chains via the LayerZero protocol.1
  • Maintaining Mappings: It holds the official registry that maps the base NFT collections on Ethereum to their corresponding Shadow NFT collections on ApeChain.1
  • Managing Asset States: It handles the logic for the two operational states of a Shadow NFT, “Locked” and “Unlocked”, and serves as the sole authority permitted to update the state of a locked Shadow NFT.1
  • Handling Full Bridging: In the event a user chooses to perform a full asset bridge, the Beacon contract is responsible for locking the original NFT on Ethereum and unlocking its shadow counterpart on ApeChain, and vice-versa.1

Operational States: Locked and Unlocked

A crucial aspect of the Shadow NFT architecture is its two distinct operational modes, which define its behavior and transferability.1

  • Locked State (Default): By default, every BAYC and MAYC NFT on Ethereum has a corresponding Shadow NFT that exists on ApeChain in a “locked” state. This locked token is essentially soul-bound to the original; it is created at the same wallet address on ApeChain as the owner of the parent NFT on Ethereum and cannot be independently transferred by its owner. Its ownership is programmatically tied to the ownership of the original asset on the mainnet. Only the Beacon contract, upon receiving a verified ownership update from LayerZero, can alter the ownership of a locked Shadow NFT. This is the default state used for functionalities like ApeCoin staking, ensuring that the utility on ApeChain always reflects the true ownership on Ethereum.1
  • Unlocked State (Bridged): While the primary innovation is bridge-less interaction, the system still provides an option for a full, traditional bridge. A user can choose to lock their original NFT on Ethereum inside the Beacon contract. Upon doing so, the corresponding Shadow NFT on ApeChain transitions to an “unlocked” state. In this mode, the Shadow NFT behaves like a standard, freely transferable ERC-721 token. The owner of this unlocked Shadow NFT is considered the de-facto owner of the asset pair, as they hold the sole key required to unlock and retrieve the original NFT from the Beacon contract on Ethereum. This state makes the Shadow NFT the primary representation of the asset, suitable for use in protocols that require the asset to be present and transferable on ApeChain.1

Integration with the Ape Ecosystem

Shadow NFTs are not a standalone technology but a deeply integrated component of Yuga Labs’ and the ApeCoin DAO’s broader strategy to build a self-sustaining and engaging ecosystem around the Ape brand.

ApeChain: The Native Environment

The primary home for Shadow NFTs is ApeChain, a bespoke blockchain tailored for the Ape ecosystem.9 Architecturally, ApeChain is an Arbitrum Orbit chain, which functions as a Layer-3 network that settles its transactions on Arbitrum One (a Layer-2), which in turn settles on the Ethereum mainnet (Layer-1).8 This layered structure allows ApeChain to inherit the security of Ethereum while offering its own highly optimized execution environment.

Launched by the ApeCoin DAO, ApeChain was created to provide a solution to the high transaction costs and network congestion of Ethereum that had previously hindered user engagement.9 By using $APE as its native gas token, the chain is designed to create intrinsic utility for the ecosystem’s currency.8 With benefits like significantly lower transaction costs and rapid block times of approximately 0.25 seconds, ApeChain is well-suited for applications like gaming, social platforms, and the high-frequency transactions associated with an active staking program.10

Primary Use Case: ApeCoin Staking

The most immediate and impactful application of Shadow NFTs is the revamped ApeCoin staking system.

Migration from Ethereum

The original ApeCoin staking protocol, which launched on Ethereum in late 2022, allowed holders to stake $APE in pools tied to their BAYC, MAYC, or Bored Ape Kennel Club (BAKC) NFTs.5 However, its operation on the Ethereum mainnet was plagued by prohibitively high gas fees for staking, unstaking, and claiming rewards, creating a clunky and expensive user experience that limited participation.12 The migration of the staking infrastructure to ApeChain on April 15, 2025, was a direct response to these challenges, aiming to provide a “faster, cheaper, and more intuitive experience” for all participants.3 A notable benefit of this migration was the removal of the geo-blocking that had previously prevented users in the United States and other jurisdictions from accessing the official staking website due to regulatory uncertainty, thereby opening participation to the entire global community.3

Staking Mechanism on ApeChain

The new staking process on ApeChain requires users to perform a one-time migration: they must first unstake any assets from the old Ethereum-based contract, bridge their liquid $APE tokens to ApeChain, and then re-stake those tokens on the new, dedicated ApeChain staking portal.3

The critical innovation lies in how NFTs are incorporated. Instead of requiring users to interact with or commit their valuable original NFTs, the system automatically recognizes the user’s corresponding Shadow NFT on ApeChain. This Shadow NFT serves as the non-transferable key that grants access to the boosted rewards of the NFT-specific staking pools.3 This elegant solution allows the staking system to leverage the value and identity of the mainnet NFTs without ever requiring them to be bridged or put at risk.

Security and Asset Management

The implementation of Shadow NFTs directly addresses the security concerns first raised in the ApeCoin DAO forums. The architecture enables a clear separation of assets. An owner can secure their original BAYC or MAYC, potentially worth millions of dollars, in a hardware wallet or a multi-signature Gnosis Safe that is kept offline and never interacts directly with dApps.4

Simultaneously, they can use a separate “hot” wallet, such as a browser extension wallet, for their daily activities on ApeChain. Because the ownership of the Shadow NFT is programmatically linked to the original asset in cold storage, the user can engage with the staking contract and other ApeChain applications without exposing their primary asset to the heightened risks associated with hot wallets, such as malicious contract approvals or phishing scams.4

Delegation

The Shadow NFT system is also compatible with advanced delegation protocols like delegate.xyz.1 This feature allows an NFT owner to grant the utility of their Shadow NFT to a different wallet address while retaining full ownership of the original asset. For example, a user could delegate their Shadow NFT to a dedicated “staking wallet.” This delegated wallet would then gain the permissions to deposit and withdraw staked $APE from the pools associated with that NFT, but it would have no ability to sell or transfer the original BAYC or MAYC. This sophisticated separation of asset ownership from functional rights provides an additional layer of security and operational flexibility for advanced users, investment DAOs, and asset managers.1

Shadow NFT Collections

Bored Ape Yacht Club Shadow (BAYCS)

The Bored Ape Yacht Club Shadow collection represents the mirrored ownership of the original 10,000 BAYC NFTs on various blockchains. While their primary utility is on ApeChain, instances of the contract have been observed on other networks.

Reception and Impact

The introduction of Shadow NFTs and the accompanying migration of ApeCoin staking to ApeChain have been met with a mix of enthusiasm for the improved user experience and critical debate regarding the ecosystem’s long-term strategy and technical trade-offs.

Community Response to Staking Migration

The community’s reception of the staking migration has been largely positive, with many viewing it as a necessary and significant upgrade. The primary benefits cited by users and official communications include the elimination of high Ethereum gas fees, which made the previous system costly to use, and a more streamlined, intuitive user interface on the new ApeChain staking site.12 The removal of geo-blocking for users in the United States was another widely praised development, opening up participation to a key segment of the community that previously faced hurdles.3 Overall, the move was framed as a successful effort to improve operations and enhance user engagement within the Ape ecosystem.3

However, discussions on the ApeCoin DAO forums leading up to the migration reveal a more complex and critical perspective. Some community members questioned the fundamental value of the initiative, arguing that the goal of moving Total Value Locked (TVL) to ApeChain was an “artificial metric” that did not provide tangible value to the DAO or token holders.20 Concerns were raised about the development costs associated with redeploying the staking contracts, the friction introduced by requiring all users to unstake and restake their assets, and the potential for new security vulnerabilities inherent in any cross-chain solution.20 This debate reflects a fundamental tension within the community between those who prioritize consolidating all activity onto the new, branded chain and those who question the costs and strategic wisdom of such a move.

Criticisms and Technical Considerations

Despite the improved user experience, the new staking system inherits and introduces several risks and technical complexities. A persistent and critical risk, which also affected the original Ethereum-based system, is the potential for users to inadvertently lose their staked $APE when selling their parent NFT.21 Because the NFT (and now its Shadow counterpart) acts as the access key to the associated staked tokens, the ownership of the staked $APE transfers to the buyer along with the NFT. Official guides and community educators repeatedly warn users to unstake all tokens before listing an NFT for sale to avoid this outcome.12

From a technical standpoint, the reliance on the lzRead mechanism introduces asynchronicity. When claiming rewards, the system must perform a cross-chain check to verify ownership on Ethereum, a process that can take up to 60 seconds and incurs an additional LayerZero processing fee.1 This delay is a deliberate security trade-off, but it contrasts with the instant claims possible on a single-chain system. The official developer documentation explicitly warns protocol builders about this lag, advising them to avoid designing atomic “claim and transfer” functions, as the claim will not resolve in the same transaction.1

Broader criticisms have been leveled at the ApeChain ecosystem as a whole. Some analysts and community members express concern over its long-term sustainability, labeling the use of $APE for gas as a “fake utility” and noting that the native yield offered is too low to attract capital from profit-seeking DeFi users.22 There are also fears that the “isolationist,” Ape-centric branding may prevent the chain from attracting the diverse developer community needed for robust growth, potentially echoing the decline of other niche blockchain projects.20 Furthermore, security researchers have pointed to potential centralization risks in ApeChain’s architecture, such as its initial reliance on a permissioned Data Availability Committee (DAC) and the lack of a fully permissionless fraud-proof system at its launch.23 These critiques highlight the significant challenges the ecosystem faces in balancing a curated, brand-centric experience with the Web3 principles of decentralization and open participation.
