Tate, did you end up buying those NFTs from this morning?
Dude, I was going to ask you the same thing.
We would have been up, dude.
No, I haven't bought anything for a few days.
I'm still thinking about it.
I was looking at the mutants, man.
They had some fucking clean ones.
There's like three or four mutants in the whole collection
that are truly clean, clean.
I have the rarest mutant in the collection.
I think yours matches you pretty well.
But if you want one to flip down the road
you might want to snag one, I guess.
They're up like half the ETH from this morning.
Kind of annoying, but it is what it is.
My favorite influencer keeps telling me
We'll just have fun going to zero with them.
You want to do a little duet?
Yeah, that was the wrong melody.
You might have to actually play something, dude.
I still have the casino in the background.
It's Friday, motherfucker.
Tell me what do you see when you looking at me?
See me come up from nothing.
I done been to the bottom.
I done served to be rich.
Heading straight to the top.
Look how I run for the block.
Look how I run for the hood.
Getting this fortunate thing.
Running in all the machines.
The new business all white calling Charm again.
How the hell did you stop me?
Why the world did you try?
That's just how I'm designed.
That's just how I was built.
You take on and it's funny.
And I still won't survive.
But these brothers gon' lie.
I've been pulling these streets.
I've been part of the head.
It's running like my man and baby.
I'm dancing for breakfast.
There might be nothing to eat.
I hope makes it be clear.
I want to guess who you're in.
Fellow task or tastemakers and I, along with the community,
will decide how to execute the selection and the curation of the NFTs.
I immediately go in there.
Probably the most liked response.
How will you be deciding 1,000 board apes?
He wants 1,000 board apes yacht clubs.
He wants to buy 1,000 board apes yacht clubs.
Not 100, not 200, not 300, not 1,000 fucking board apes.
He wants to buy 2,000 mutant apes.
There's not even 1,000 fucking listed.
Ask him, how will you be picking these for purchase?
Regardless, I do believe this is the best use of the ApeCoin treasury.
Most, if not all, AIPs I've read do not have any type of quantifiable price impact
into the Yuga ecosystem, which is completely true, by the way.
All of them are, how can they fatten their back pocket, which is fine.
And that treasury has been bent over more than enough for me to say,
fuck it, that treasury's fucked.
And how about it, anyone that wants it?
They had a proposal that probably would have went through
had it not get taken down by the author.
Paying everyone that was in ApeCoin Dow for one year,
if you signed up a year ago, you get $10,000.
And it was getting tons of traction.
I think it would have made it through, but the author actually took it down.
So, unfortunate for everyone, I might go put it up myself.
No one else seems to give a fuck about ApeCoin.
The people that do give a fuck about ApeCoin get shit on.
So, the people that signed up for the forums like one day ago
are running for the biggest, like, Dow.
Like, they know what it's been through.
They don't have a single fucking comment,
but they think they're great for the Dow.
They know exactly what the Dow needs or wants.
I'm reading through this.
Dude, there's so many responses.
It's all pretty positive.
No one's really pushing back on this idea.
So, a couple people say we need more details.
Original poster, I propose that you rewrite the AIP idea
to focus on a smaller scale.
So, pretty much a yes as well.
From artist's perspective, I find this idea interesting.
But a Dow member, I have concerns.
There needs to be more information on implementation.
So, a lot of people like this idea,
Buy Board 8 God Club with the ApeCoinDow treasury.
Send that treasury to zero faster, please.
He wants to spend $60 million on buying NFTs.
Bogfight, you don't like the idea?
Yeah, I don't think there's enough liquidity
to even make that idea possible.
There's $800 million in the treasury, bro.
That's $800 million in ApeCoin, right?
You have to have Ethereum.
Yeah, with the ApeCoin...
With the ApeCoin, you could buy...
It's $800 million worth of ApeCoin, bro.
You don't go and sweep up one day
to pump Bakfai's bags, bro.
I'm trying to make a point here.
It would slowly happen, fam.
one shot, pump the floor from fucking
and overnight turn the fucking project
of injecting liquidity, dude, into things.
He gets approved for that,
They have an allocation of,
They slowly make it happen.
Whether it's a million dollars a month,
whether it's a five-year thing.
but it needs more details.
The people asking for more details are right.
You following now, Bakfai?
I mean, it's your opinion, Books.
I mean, I'm looking at the...
There's no one looking to take
if you just look at the market cap of ApeCoin,
So I don't even know where you get
your $800 million figure from.
So you're saying that the DAO
has more tokens in supply
than the whole entire market cap?
It makes no sense, Books.
And you know it makes no sense.
Because to convert that money to Ethereum,
somebody's going to have to...
Dude, no one's converting it one shot, bro.
Look at the volume this token does.
it takes you six months to do it
And the money's in Coinbase custody, too, bro.
Liquidity pool that's showing
I know, it's an order book on Coinbase.
There's liquidity all over the place.
It's order book liquidity.
It's not just on DexTools.
It's order book liquidity.
You and I both understand how order book...
What's the total liquidity on ApeCoin?
Well, you can quantify it on the Dex
and then on the order books,
you have to look at the order books.
how much liquidity is on Binance,
No, it shows you how much liquidity
But what I'm telling you...
Yeah, how much is on all the Dexes?
I think less than a million.
Dude, look at how many...
Are you talking about real liquidity
Yeah, less than a million.
V3 just doesn't show you pooled ETH.
You've got to use Dex.guru
If you're talking about real liquidity
is less than half a million.
How many pairs are you basing that on?
that has the most amount,
All the liquidity is on one side.
The real liquidity is like 175 ETH.
I actually never understood.
Maybe you could help me with this.
that's not ApeCoin's liquidity, bro.
They've got a lot of liquidity, bro.
But I've never seen a token set up
there was like four or five million dollars
And he sold 14, 15 million in one day.
And it barely dented that fucking price.
And where the fuck did that money come from?
Well, it's not just Coinbase.
It's any centralized exchange
that Ape is trading with.
And where do we see that money?
You have to literally look at the order book
and see how many bidders are...
that looks at all the order books
I don't know about Coinbase.
How much money is on all those order books?
It's like order book debt.
The point I'm trying to make
that are putting in these order books,
they can easily remove it.
It takes like one button.
I don't think it's a good idea.
It's not going to be one shot.
I know it's not going to be
there's this much ApeCoin
that needs to be liquidated
to eat to buy all these NFTs.
and see a million holders
and not buy ApeCoin, bro.
this is like hypothetically speaking.
the first page of ApeCoin
Sam, if I was an investor,
unless they took that away.
Like, ask for less money?
Ask for something reasonable
Machi wants to handle it, bro,
Dude, here's my thing, okay?
it sounds like a great idea,
and start sweeping floors.
when you have $60 million
and doing stuff like that,
You can't just go and dump
also comes to mind, right?
Like, is this so you could
to them for $1.5 million,
There are way more details.
actually did a test case,
That'll be absolutely amazing.
Yeah, but these connections,
hey, I'm in New York today.
maybe through the grapevine.
I think it's a great idea,
You can go to the colleges,
Like, put something out there
where you put your own capital,
for people to agree, right?
it looks like he's trying
It just doesn't look good.
ApeCoin's dumping anyway.
Because of staking alone.
worrying about ApeCoin's price,
I see it being a disaster
It's going to go down regardless.
So, I don't care too much
The only reason I disagree
I think with the heavy metal,
they're really disappointed.
But I think if the other side
we all have 3D characters,
one of the most successful
distributed from one wallet
starts accepting ApeCoin,
ain't gonna let it bleed.
I think it's a custody thing.
if they're custodying it,
I think people are holding.
fucking pink ape remember
consistently dropping and
like it might be you know
metaverse is the solution
shit what are you talking
not and you fractionalize
the metaverse right let's
market strategy give it to
how many people lost money
not the other side of the
motherfuckers walk out of
trying to act like that's
gun it's totally different
because the speculation is
box five you had a problem
with machi's aip proposal
liquidity issues now let's
takes in a hundred million
dollars in ape coin are you
prepared for the dumps like
turned into cash to be put
profitable and sustainable
there's there's people on
the other side have to go
demand then it can support
that because they came out
looked at dookie dash that
losing money it's just you
spending like how you know
like spending a dollar or
coin operated machines to
people essentially did you
twenty seven dollars yeah
in the early beginnings yeah
it pumped to that all-time
was just market hype people
everyone expecting to mint
I don't know when they said
it was an ape coin it was
no but it's still minted an
ape coin though I think it
was like six hundred eight
coin or something no it was
ETH or ape coin or just ETH I
forget actually but it was
definitely ETH because Saul you
said the board Ape Yacht Club
was the main supporter of the
other side which was also I
think incorrect I think it
was the whole entire NFT and
web three space yeah it was
participate in Yuga for a low
didn't even have enough money
everyone was minting that
project they're trying to and
five are they gonna do it
where you could mint or you
could play this game with ETH
ape coin I doubt many people
are gonna choose the ape coin
option that's another problem I
hope they don't do that so
bro imagine if people have
bought real land that day bro
like people could could have
bought all right so let's
settle down a little bit man
the Adderall whatever you take
it's hitting heavy right now you
uh jams jams here jams here
yo I didn't take any Adderall
but I did take a couple Viagra so
I'll be quick before that starts
showing too uh books brother
you're looking so damn good
today I just wanted to tell you
that that's all I wanted to
fucking say bro I motherfucking
miss you man I wish that post you
made was you I would have I would
oh I see Craig up here too
yeah uh FYI books though it it
minted an ape coin I think it was
305 ape coin per per per land
bro it was ETH it was not just
they no one was using jams did
you mint other side with ape coin
or with ethereum sir uh way too
much ethereum I think I'd pay I
bought two lands and it cost me
something like 24 grand or some
shit like that that was the
that was the transaction theme
uh because people were mad yeah
yeah yeah I paid I paid I think
something like I gassed it because
I was I was on vacation I think I
gassed it with two ETH per per unit
and I minted two I tried to get
five a couple of mine failed on
shittier gas but I think I spent two
on my successful transactions and
ETH was what ETH was what 3500 at
the time 4k I don't remember it was
like 3k around 3k so so I think just
the gas alone I spent like with my
failed transactions and my good ones
something like 12 or 13 grand
yeah because I'm looking at the ones
that were not for a free claim right
if you didn't have a board ape or
whatever you just wanted to come in
it was 305 ape coins per per land
yeah yeah I remember they did
ape coin and ETH options I think that
dude I might I might be able to go
back on my on my timeline I might have
a graph I think something like 1% of
people used ape coin or less than 1% if
I'm not mistaken it was really low
no that's that's wrong because I'm
literally looking at the ETH scan
there's I can I can throw you like
hundreds of token IDs that were
minted with and I've been hundreds
like thousands actually of token IDs
that were minted with with ape coin
yo so I want to know then if you guys
gonna let us mint girlfriends with
ape coin because I just spent about
a thousand ape on this new farm bill
game where I literally log in once per
day I speed boost all of my all of my
tiles with all the energy I have then
I leave but I want to know if I can
get a girlfriend is that is that
coming that's why I got kicking in now
jump I gotta go yeah back it was the
problem with the minting was the gas
everyone was spreading rumors that it
was going to be more and more gases the
day went on so it was going yeah I'm
looking at the gas I mean people
going up the gas time was at 5,000
wait so yeah you have to you have to
know how to mint from contract and you
have to know how we were just great to
get going first so how much did it cost
for the average person to mint one other
side to eat just to eat plus gas
around three yeah around three so like nine
grand per fucking nft almost how much was
eat that that's including gas including
gas including 10,000 for one plot nine
grand year around nine grand but if you are
good but if you are good and you are
doing it a flip it it was a great it was a
great opportunity because the the network
went down so I had my laptop and four
backfire go look at the first sales on
other side land go look at the first I
think I was like seventh or eighth I
thought I would win it but there was some
fucking crazy fucked up people there it was
mad and there was a lot of people you
know there was people getting their
family their friends everyone the KYC
wallet so they could mint like everyone
wanted other side land I claimed two
codas and minted a total of like eight
lands though yo there was people got like
ten lands and got no codas what are
codas at right now someone check
four three to between three and four
each or some shit like that I forget man
a coda was worth $100,000 bro 30 east
coda's not a bad buyer right now I'd say
I flipped lands unrevealed and one of them
had a coda and then I had another coda
that I wish I'd sold I got like a bid for
44 east on it and I held it all the way
down I think I sold it for 18 or 19 east
they fucked up too so what they did was
the the codas the metadata wasn't
updating on the codas though you had like
some circle that said something like
other side I forget what it said but
the coda ones had like a circle in the
middle like it was some like error
message with a circle for codas it was
some weird shit man really really weird
shit and those were all selling the if
you had that error message your plot was
selling for like 30 over 30 east
it was the weapon it ended up being the
coda with weapons it ended up being the
coda with weapons books coda what does
the coda do yeah so the ape the ape yeah
the ape would be dr evil and the coda
would be like mini me like his little
friend well maybe not even so little but
you get the picture a companion
everyone was spectating that it was
going to generate ape coin weren't
that that was why they were saying
what the fuck is a coda so they could
get around the securities laws
a bunch of idiots could have just
googled what coda means and it means
ally friend companion little bear
blessing a modern short form for the
native american name dakota which
translates to ally friend and little
and it ushered in the bear market
thank you finally somebody to come up
here and stop the nonsense go ahead b
bro the bag of titus backfire you
sometimes you gotta really try bro the
bag of titus no good fam it's not
healthy it's not bag of titus books i'm
i'm telling you like there is a great
it's a good company bro i i agree it's a
good company bro no one's saying it's
not a good company bro but good
companies don't always win i'm saying
it's a bad good companies with billions
of dollars fail and lose it dude and
like not for nothing even like you
mentioned the activision blizzard like
all all the hires and dude that don't
always mean something good man
yeah but normally doesn't mean something
correct correct 100% agree but we can't
just say oh they hired the ex-fucking
accountant for instacart and it's gonna
okay books let's say let's say okay
let's include uh the board apes right
tell me another another web3 brand
another web3 nft that's doing anything
reasonable like there's a i cannot i
my point exactly yeah i cannot like
what azuki all i know is azuki it's an
but that's that's not a good thing yo
like the fact that i cannot it's not a
the fact that you have to ask tell me
yo that's not good are they creating an
like yo dude i think azuki
rip off shit so i mean i was just
wondering if like that's what they were
doing i think azuki is gonna be good
i don't know why i just got a good
do brands have a responsibility to do
anything other than put out products
and and develop a brand and make more
like can people just be i don't know
can can companies just be a supreme
and just make a great cool brand and
like the fact that the numbers go up
the expectations just get so inflated
look at the network token with zero
how many expectations were layered on
when you actually have a real product
and they deliver a little bit of
expectations the community just takes
runs with it but our brand's just not
allowed to build out ip and and
launch product is that not allowed
are they required to deliver
saying that we like layering our own
is what's wrong there's just a
difference in expectations
when a girl asks what are we it's
like girl asks what are we
all of a sudden you gotta lay
expectations i mean can they just
but but bart what's what's the
expectation with a network token
yeah and that's why it's performing
the way it is because there's no
well i would disagree with that i
would highly disagree with that i
would say it's performing the way
it is because there is conviction
otherwise blackjack what do you
think would happen to that price
wouldn't we be at zero by now
what's the price i don't even i
do you do you look blackjack because
i don't me personally i don't even
i know my 40 dollars is not a lot but
you give it more time where where
if the team doesn't communicate
excellent i can't wait because i'm
loading the bag for that moment
and maybe that's the plan of the
team i don't know bro but i don't
think that's that's the right way of
of managing stuff like this you know
you you end up just wrecking
maybe you should lost your own
and you own 40 and i don't agree
we don't know that's not us
we're just we're marketing
you control the token the
your address is on the multi-state
you can try to confound it and say
lebron wears nike is he the one
creating the sweatshops now
yeah but he's a paid representative
well and we're unpaid so we
see i don't know dude this is
this is the point right no one
knows what the fuck is going on
no one knows who's part of the
yeah yeah man so what's going on
yeah hanging out we're just
it's not hard to break down
yeah you know some people are
all i'm saying is this you know
this is not the best way to
manage a token in my opinion
what was it what was its launch
price and what is that now
i could tell you in price
can we get dr hoddle up here
a lot more than anyone else
and right now one crow gets
oh that's what it opened up at
one crow gave you 41 buck
okay and when did you launch it
i launched it nearly a year
okay so look we've been at
the gym now for three weeks
you've been going to the gym
for one year and nine months
we're doing all the things
muscle the right way dude
you're gonna get a little
i think the gestation period
for a baby elephant in the
yeah and i got a question
yeah so you guys never put
so you're down 25 percent
fucking bouquets of flowers
we're gonna youtube video it
and you just have to run down
and give everybody a flower
you're pretty good at that
what would you rather have
what would you be leaning
you could hear one another
you're trying to get taxed
new york is not the place
dude if we're in new york too
we can just piss right on the street as well
books would you feel good
imagine just take this stage
but things got in the way
do you have any net token
