Alien Punk mfers are the most wild humans in the world
Mfers see every NFT dumping to 2 year lows
First guy gets a 4,200 eth bid (14 mil) and decides to not accept and lower his listing to 4720 eth
Bidder withdraws places on the other alien listed at 5k
24 hrs not accepted
Crypto goes up, crypto goes down
Floor price goes up, floor price goes down
It’s the nature of the game
Tbh. As long as my people are happy and see the vision I’m happy.
We’re building, we will deliver time and time again in many different ways.
I’m focused on building a legacy my Son will be proud of , his kids will be proud of and on and on.
Grateful for everyone who’s coming along for the ride 💯❤️
You got a guy who is going after it in the biggest way, EVERY SINGLE DAY 🤝🏻💯
Yuga buys 10KTF
One year later they fire most of the team because it didn’t go to plan
Yuga buys Meebits
One year later they fire most of the team because it didn’t go to plan
Yuga buys Moonbirds
What do you think happens next?
@apeuniverse_eth@MeebitsNFTs the biggest failure in nft history, back in 2021 bayc was a dream, the project was creating a culture big people were joining for me was litterly a dream to be a part of it. now just don’t know i don’t think the club is the same
Today marks the end of an era for me. Today I have decided to liquidate my ape bag at some point. I will no longer be an Yuga advocate anymore. They lost me. The only collection I am bullish on is @MeebitsNFTs as it can survive a Yuga collapse in the future. Good bye 👋
Regarding the Yuga acquisition of Proof.
I don't hold a BAYC anymore (Plague has a Mutant in the Treasury though), and I typically don't find it appropriate to comment on business decisions of other (especially more successful) NFT projects.
But I have a few thoughts on this one.
1.) RE: Insider trading. No doubt it happened. More likely it came from the Proof side than the Yuga side. In my experience, typically the "acquirer" is more tight lipped than the "acquired." Ironically, many of the people complaining on the timeline do it daily and are really just pissed their cabal didn't get the tip-off.
2.) It irritates me when people win that do no deserve to. But such is the way of the world. No use complaining. Web3 is NOT different. I have been saying that for years now.
3.) Yuga might have actually gotten a decent deal. It would depend on the amount of equity they gave him.
Why? They acquired thousands of bag holders. Likely high net worth individuals. Who now have a vested interest in the success of Yuga products. From a VC perspective, having wallets tied to high-net worth individuals is worth something.
They have a perfect excuse to migrate contracts and change the art. Ditch the old CCO artwork and create a new Moonbird that I am sure will be featured in the Otherside.... and will have royalties.
Moonbirds will never be 40 ETH again. But nobody has ever explained to me why they were 40 ETH to begin with.
Or why they were 1 ETH before the insiders drove the price up.
All that being said. I can understand why the majority of Apes are irritated and confused.
Because the biggest risk YUGA has (all NFT projects for that matter) is that they lose their culture. I don't see how acquiring another (failed) NFT project helps with this.
I'm honestly just sad right now.
Put aside all of the business reasons why this acquisition might or might not make sense.
Yuga acquiring Moonbirds and bringing Kevin on as an advisor is essentially putting a stamp of approval on what they did as a project.
That's the most offensive and tone deaf thing I could have imagined Yuga doing in this moment.
Yuga is a leader in the space. I believe they should be condemning the types of decisions Moonbirds made over the last two years. Not rewarding them.
I've been critical of many of Yuga's decisions - but that criticism always came from a place of genuine love and admiration for the club. It was because I wanted them to be successful. I wanted to help.
This is the first time it's felt different. Because this feels like a betrayal of values. Going to take some real time to reflect, but not sure there's any coming back from this one for me.
The biggest advantage Pudgy Pengus have is being able to go to sleep knowing the team isnt going to make terrible decisions and announcements
Its the biggest relief and the only current team to be able to do that
Damn proud to be a Pengu
So $APE is like $1 down 95%. Hasn't pumped not one bit while every other coin is up 2-3x from the bottom.
Apes, Mutants, Otherdeeds are all down horrendously with no signs of recovering.
And yuga acquires Moonbirds. A rugged NFT collection with cc0 art.
Make it make sense.
