Some news to share:
After serving as CEO the past couple years, I’m moving into the role of Chairman of the Board, and @mfigge will become Yuga’s next CEO.
Figge is the absolute best person for the job. There’s no one I trust more to lead Yuga through this next chapter.
He’s relentless about product quality, he thinks longterm, and he knows how to take a vision and make it real. His work on Otherside the past year is proof of that, and you haven’t seen the half of it.
And I’ve loved watching Figge get his hands dirty in the world of BAYC over the last few weeks. The club is better for it.
Creative direction, writing, and figuring out insane ideas is still where I do my best work. And with Figge taking over the CEO role, I get to go back to it. I can’t wait for what Yuga builds next.
It’s pretty dope to work w/ @mfigge on @MnemeFoundation and @LACMA bc we learn so much about how he sees culture, product and production. He’s so committed to the world of digital art and I’m sure that others will be inspired to get off the sidelines and join the movement as he has!
Bored Ape Yacht Club is joining @LACMA as part of a landmark gift of 200+ works spanning the history of digital art.
Eight BAYC and MAYC NFTs were donated through @DigitalArtMove, an initiative originally approved and funded by the ApeCoin DAO.
Congrats to everyone involved.
now that apefest is over. We've enabled ripping on the Mudwater site.
Every digital pack is backed by a physical - your digital rip surfaces contents of a physical pack stored securely with our warehouse partner.
Go ahead and see what you got!
I’m so happy to acquire this golden grail, especially tonight during Apefest!! My conviction in the club has never been stronger, and I’m super grateful to @machibigbrother for making this deal!! BAYC for life!!!!!
The Mudwater TCG from @yugalabs is now live on Solana.
Mudwater: 120 BAYC art pieces, plus foils, serialized and cracked-ice grails, physical and digital.
Heads up because I'm seeing that question a lot: OpenSea will NOT show your totem in your wallet, because it's not there!
Each ape was given a 6551 wallet and the token is in that wallet.
Connect to https://t.co/AnJI6Z4D73 and you should see it. If you've issued a shadow delegation, connect the delegate wallet. It's there.
I’m really excited to see what the 8 1/1s from mudwater go for, probably less than half will ever be opened.
When we designed the collectibility of this set, these 1/1s and serialized cards where a big focus.
Mudwater is an old game played deep in the Everglades.
Instead of dice in alleys, we play Mudwater on the docks.
The game is simple, but the skill ceiling is high.
And we play for keeps.
We've just airdropped this 6551 Totem, paired to all BAYC & MAYC, enabling pack claims.
