Simkins said his firm contacted the owner of the non-fungible token (NFT) via Discord. "At first they were hesitant to sell, but after some back and forth we were able to come to a mutual agreement," he said.

Simkins added E11EVEN is “excited about exploring marketing opportunities” with BAYC #11. This is its first purchase of an NFT.
