@franklinisbored@BoredApeYC congratulations! Yes this is legit and we'll be getting in touch with you in the next couple weeks with details to claim the tickets.
@BoredClint@OGDfarmer@guyoseary Totally understand where you're coming from. We originally had in the proposal that the DAO would participate in profit sharing as an equal partner but it got really complicated from a legal standpoint. If we figured out a way to do that would that ease some of your concerns?
@NFTBeliever Yeah if you don't think generally these types of projects should be attached to DAO funds then that makes sense. Appreciate the honest but respectful feedback!
@BoredApe1000 Totally understand where you're coming from. We originally had in the proposal that the DAO would participate in profit sharing as an equal partner but were told that we couldn't do that for legal reasons. We might need to revisit that.
The first proposal is AIP-29, which is seeking to become a curated NFT platform for the ApeCoin community.
The full proposal can be found here: https://t.co/fM3co5OExf
If approved, we would only receive funds if we achieve concrete milestones. Our goal is to use this grant to build up a team of 6-8 people so we can regularly launch NFT projects powered by $APE. Until we get commitments from new hires, no funds are given to us.
We wrote this AIP because we'd like to scale up our operations and marketing team. We're currently a few people working part time but believe this is a platform that will add utility to $APE as well as bring new communities into the $APE ecosystem.
Our tech stack is built by @manifoldxyz. They're committed to maintaining and improving it over time but it is already in a pretty mature state. We can launch new projects on our site in less than a day.
You can find our website here: https://t.co/KEDgrI4URG. We know it's a little bare bones looking but don't worry, site is currently getting a makeover and will be updated very soon.
We were the first $APE NFT marketplace, having launched 2 days after @apecoin went live. We're a curated marketplace (think @niftygateway for $APE) that's launched 7 drops to date with a mix of up and coming artists and established artists.
Elevating the $APE community will always be the foundation of Ape Drops. We're so glad we got to work with @redapes! Helping your fellow Apes is a great way to combat the FUD. If you have anything to spare please donate to Orangutan Outreach here: https://t.co/3syfjb71gZ
gm. It's been a rough week but we want ya'll to know we're not going anywhere. We love the $APE and @yugalabs communities and will continue to build together. We wanted to showcase another amazing Ape Drops partner today: @redapes ๐งต
We got to partner with Orangutan Outreach when we auctioned two tickets to Ape Fest 2022 for charity. It was a fun bidding war between @tropoFarmer and @franklinisbored with the winning bid coming at a cool...669.6969 APE.
