Six days to Charleston.

ApeCo just brought 5M+ new active users into $APE / ApeCoin in the last 30 days.

Now live on Ethereum, ApeChain, Arbitrum, Solana, and HyperLiquid with BNB next.

No dilution.
No shortcuts.
Just pure expansion.

$APE is scaling where others stall.

My son asked me, “Before you had me, did you want a girl or a boy?”

I told him, “Man, I just wanted some pussy… now we here.” 😭😂

The best things in the Club start with someone bringing their own thing to it.

That’s the idea behind Anchor Drops. An ongoing series bringing artists from different cities, scenes and corners of the world into BAYC and giving them room to show us what the Club looks like through their eyes.

We want these artists to leave something behind. Their perspective, their style, their community. Each one adds another layer to the Club and another doorway into it for someone who wasn’t here before. That’s how the world around BAYC gets bigger.

For our next Anchor Drop, that doorway is in Seoul. Stonrok has spent years building a world and visual language of his own. Now, for five days in Seongsu, that world collides with ours.

BAYC x Stonrok. More details soon.

Meet the Starpod.

Part home, part lander, part exploration vehicle.

It is fast, nimble, and always with you. The Starpod is how you launch, travel, return, and touch down across the world.

I see BAYC

I say YES

[Peter Fang @peterjfang]

Been here long enough to know that a lot of what drove @BoredApeYC in 2021 came from the culture and value created by the community members purely taking initiative.

I remember being @Swickie’s +1 at the first community-led BAYC irl meetup hosted by @beijingdou , where @NFTBA_ was born over a smoke sesh with @TheeHustleHouse and @seanana, and later met Mr. Community Utility himself @17ikoola on the courts.

It was also there Josh Ong and I decided to pitch the founders on supporting a yacht party we wanted to throw for Apes at NFT NYC, which we then watched that Yuga support turn that into the first ApeFest.

I watched Swickie work that ApeFest line for 8 hours verifying wallet addresses on a spreadsheet while handing out the very first and very last wristbands to a line that stretched for BLOCKS just to make sure no apes were left behind.

And before that, I remember @mfigge making custom BAYC sneaker concepts for holders before eventually blessing the space with @10KTFshop, still imo one of the most community-centric and creative projects with some of the most inspiring story telling that brought this space together like no other.

All of this helped establish the club DNA and most of this was before MAYC, Otherside, Kodas, ApeCoin, HVY MTL, etc.

Those came later that were rewards for a community that had helped create this cultural phenomenon.

But somewhere along the way, it feels like we lost the plot of where value came from got conflated with rewards given.

Floor price and volume measure market activity and demand. Airdrops are rewards and incentives. But that demand existed because the culture was strong, people wanted in, and Apes were out here building shit because it brought us together as a community which then created value in the form of opportunities not unlike stonkbrokers.

These are GOOD things because it’s creating opportunities regardless and it happened because WE said so. No official collab. No Yuga shill. No permission needed.

We believed back then that evolution of BAYC should be to take this club beyond Web3 and by proxy this space. But that isn’t happening if we think only Yuga led initiatives, proper merch drop mechanics, more airdrops, web3 rewards, or party access are what made this the best club in the world. And vice versa for Yuga themselves to assume they can come close to replicating the culture without truly understanding what it means to be an ape.

Don’t lose the plot fam. Stay bored 🍌

really grateful to have just acquired bored ape #29, which will stay in my vault forever

i’ve been in and out of the clubhouse a few times over the years, and have always loved so many of the apes ive met. i just never found one that really felt like mine

this one instantly did

i wanted something super clean, and 4t (four traits only) was perfect. fun fact, it was actually the first 4t ever minted in the collection

then the robot eyes matching my eyeband made it feel almost too perfect

it’s the one

when i first entered this space, owning a bored ape felt like something meant for people way further ahead than me, impossible to catch up to tbh

i had like $1,700, was trying to figure everything out, and just wanted to somehow make a good life on the internet

so moments like this still hit me very much even i manifested id be desensitized and it'd feel "normal"

through every chapter since, nfts, digital art, internet communities have always felt like home to me

really thankful to finally own a piece i genuinely love, and to call the swamp home

ape #29 forever 🤖
