Bored Ape owner

Jimmy Fallon, host of The Tonight Show, proudly displayed his acquisition of a pricey digital collectible – a Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT – during an interview with Paris Hilton on Monday. The monkey, one of 10,000 from the Bored Ape collection, reminded Fallon of himself, and he shared his purchase with her and the audience. An NBC spokesperson confirmed that Fallon did not violate the company's conflict of interest policy, but critics argue that using show time to promote a financial asset like an NFT could be problematic.
