What are the top 10 celebrity NFT portfolios?

Last month, CMC Markets ranked the celebrities with the most expensive NFT portfolios in the world. Based on the data from Rarible and DappRadar, CMC ranked the celebrities by the value of their most recent sale. Notably, 60% of the celebrities on the list are from the music industry. 

Unsurprisingly, Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs are the most popular among the A-listers. Indeed, as the top-grossing blue-chip collection, Bored Apes have often been the first choice of high net-worth individuals as they embark on their NFT journey.

Let’s take a closer look at the top 10 celebrity NFT portfolios based on the data from June 2022:
