Hey everyone, thanks for joining us on this fine Sunday for the just a community call update. Have some pretty big updates today. If you have to jump off early or if you missed this, these are all recorded so you can come and reference this any time.
the future. Before we actually get to the updates, I want to go ahead and say a few words in terms of the current state of just everything that we're doing with Apes Cross Rolls did the potential expansion to polygon, so on and so forth. I really just want to
We've tried some pretty unique things on the chain. We've partnered with the official organization through Solana Spaces. Taking on a pretty hefty contract there with the
of growing the ecosystem, on-boarding more to the ecosystem, not just on-boarding more, on-boarding not in crypto-natives. As a, what some people would call PFP collection, we more or less recognize the potential PFP projects of NFTs themselves.
want to be on the forefront of that movement, right? We've been on Solana for about a year. We've constantly tried to push ourselves to improve and innovate in different areas. And ultimately, one of the things we learned through everything that we've done, whether it be like I mentioned, the official partnership with Solana Spaces by having these stories
in New York City and Miami coming out with this unique staking solution where we gave out just so many tangible prizes worldwide whether you're in Asia, whether you're in Europe, whether you're in Africa, it didn't matter where you were. We basically came out with this way to reward holders across the board with different tangible items.
as well as digital awards, right? You know, we basically just kind of looked and learned, you know, after spending all this time, after spending this last year, and you know, one of the biggest lessons is, ultimately, we learn that, you know, just focusing on Solana is not enough to achieve our vision, right? We have
broader aspirations we have, you know, you want to do more and for everything that we've done on Solana, you know, the reception just it hasn't been to what we wanted. Hence, you know, this is what we're constantly working on, you know, how can we explore opportunities beyond Solana into other blockchain ecosystems and just in general into the broad
how can we grow, how can we create a larger network, a larger ecosystem that will help us scale and grow in a more sustainable and effective way. All that being said, one of the biggest complaints we've heard recently is floor price. The floor price sucks. It is just so low. That's something that I personally
taking you know head on right like how can we how can we grow the the floor price right we've delivered on all their aspects you know whether it be the multiple product lines we came out whether it be the fashion the pearl the coffee the rewards the tangible benefits back the holders you know the unique rewards system all that stuff right so now we're essentially
just how can we do things differently that's going to actually leave us sustainable impact on us where we're growing at a rate that we're happy with, right? You know, with that being said, you know, our mission goes beyond just April, right? We again, you know, we understand we launched on so on up. So with that being said,
We're not going to just forget our roots. We want to bring the entire salon community with us. Those who have stuck with us, who are still here, who are still holding, who are waiting for the next release, who understand it does take time to build, who are being patient with us, who are led in this test, these different strategic initiatives to see how they
land, you know, if they don't work, we'll look at something else, we'll adapt, we'll be agile, we'll kind of move forward in a way that allows us to be flexible, right? That's the most important thing for us, right? And that kind of goes on to what we're looking to build with Aves Across Worlds, right? We've released, you know, a little bit of information. We haven't really given out#
And that's that's intentional right we're we're not ready to fully release everything. I can't say and I think I've said this on more than a few spaces before, you know, it apes across worlds. We really want to look at what it means to be a community driven project. What it means to to have something that's, you know, completely community driven and how can
Can we help facilitate that kind of action? How can we fully empower the community to make decisions to contribute to the growth of the ecosystem in general? Not just Paul Igan, not just Salona, Web 3 in general. That's really where we're looking. That's really how we want to shine. We ultimately believe what we're doing with Apes Cross World.
will be a game changer for the Selon community and will further enable us to achieve our vision of growth and expansion. Just because we're building out in Apes Cross World, it doesn't mean we're necessarily forgetting about just tape. What we've said is on the horizon for just tape in general is we have season two, we have season three, we have gen two, right? And those kinds of things
They do take time to build, especially when you look at Gen 2, right? I've mentioned this before, and we've also released details on essentially how we'll be doing Gen 2. We'll be a freed Mint for Gen 1 holders. So as long as you hold your Gen 1 just ape and all the items you receive through Staking, I mean,
going to get through season 2 as well as the medallion drop that's coming soon you will be eligible to mint your gen 2 for free right. And as time goes on you know we'll kind of go on into details of what gen 2 means for you know the whole reward system in general we're doing something pretty unique in essence how we want to build out the platform.
continue to scale up the platform, right? We don't want to just cater to salon anymore. We want to look at how can we integrate more blockchains within our reward system? How can we build something that's chandagnostic? How can we follow the examples of some of the big titans in the space, the Web2 titans, you know, platforms like Reddit who were able to kind of essentially onboard masses to
two NFTs without them realizing that they were actually using NFTs, right? That's where we see our platform going. That's how we want to scale out and that's how we want to build it out. With that being said, you know, we're always actively partnering with their projects and that's something we're definitely doing with Apes Cross worlds, looking at these collaborations on how exactly can we expand our reach? How can we bring
more people into the just a beacons just now can we bring that more that tangible value in terms of floor price right more to our holders right we we essentially want to look at these kind of partnership opportunities as a way to create these synergies with these other projects and communities obviously you know the the prime the the real value is you know cross-pollination we we want to cross
as much as we can to really just grow and scale up as I've mentioned drive even greater awareness and adoption of just ape in general the whole ecosystem and everything that we're doing. So just to kind of sum that all up, you know, we're we are obviously focused on bringing more attention to the salon ecosystem because that's where just ape lives right now. We want to grow and scale and we want to power the community.
community to be a part of it all right. We're fully committed to achieving our vision. If you look at our mission, we've delivered on all aspects of our mission up to this point. So now it just comes into what else can we do to continue to grow and scale. With that being said, again, thanks for joining us today for this community update. Let's go
ahead and jump right into it. So, you know, the biggest, I guess, the biggest piece, things that we've been waiting on for the past, you know, the past couple of weeks is the PNFT migration. As many of you know, you know, we ran into some issues with our current stake and solution, part of the issues of, you know, building out what we build out is, you know, a lot of our solutions are
very custom. There's no out of the box solution tailored to what we build. You know, with that being said, whenever these big kind of bleednedge tech comes out like the meta plaques, you know, royalty enforcement standard for program will NFTs that cause quite a few, you know, hiccups with everything in terms of how we thought it would work going forward. Finally, today we
We finally completed the migration for all the air drop to assets. Everything in your wallet, every just-ape asset that you own, every just-ape asset that exists now is finally a PNFT. The migration is finally completed as well. With that being said, we finally pushed staking back up onto the website. You can go ahead and go take your assets.
that's again, as we mentioned, the past couple of weeks, one of the big improvements that we've gotten requested, ever since we released Stake and is, why are we doing escrow based staking? And with that said, we finally, with this change, we're finally moving towards escrow is staking. So when you stake and you start accumulating experience, your assets still
continue to remain in your wallet. If you list your assets, your XP, a cruel wallet will obviously stop. So just something to keep in mind. But moving forward, we will never have again control of your assets, your assets, your wallet that will all stay with you, moving forward with the reward system in general. So yeah, it's a big improvement for us. And I'm finally
I'm not sure if you're going to be able to do that.
Create our job looks to go out in the next week. In order to be eligible, you will have to restake. And how that will look like is one one trait per wall that is staked. We figured this would be the various way possible, right? We have upwards of around three K wallets that stake. That's how much around how many we had last time. So whenever we're doing
doing a trade drop this big, we didn't want to drop too many trades more than one because that we're essentially adding 3k extra trades right for doing one trade per wall. So you'll have one week to stake after that one week we'll take a snapshot as long as your wall is in that snapshot you'll be eligible for the trades.
We'll go ahead and be dropping a pretty big teaser on Twitter today. But yeah, super excited for these traits. The creative team just absolutely crushed it. There's about 59 different traits. So yeah, super excited to see all the different combinations that everyone comes up with. You know, the whole thing we went with was a survivor based. But obviously,
still kind of adheres to the just a aesthetic. So that that'll that preview will be out today shortly. Keep an eye on that. Super excited for that. Other than that, you know, we've had these, you know, this discussion about this animation that we've been working on to start ramping up towards season two. That is nearly complete. We only have the final
renderings left, so super excited to get that out as well. An animation more than likely won't drop until the prior, prior right to the start of season two. With all these issues we've experienced with, you know, the PNFT stuff, we're pushing back that launch about two weeks, so we'll be having an update in the next week about, you know, official timelines when you can actually start expecting
So, I'm super excited to finally get that out so the community can actually see where the story is going, where just ape is going, where gen 2 is going, where just ape is going, where just ape is going, where just ape is going, where just ape is going, where just ape is going, where just ape is going, where just ape is going, where just ape is going, where just ape is going, where just ape is going, where#
what is happening with Gen 2 and how that story actually makes sense for the entirety of the timeline. With that being said, next, yeah, eight across worlds updates, what have we been working on with eight across worlds. Last week we mentioned that we were starting on the front end development for the application site, happened a report that is about 95% done
We got that up this past week and started passing that around internally, mostly, to kind of get an idea for certain feedback things that, you know, team had, you know, certain suggestions on certain things. And we've also dropped some of those sneak peeks in Discord. So if you go search the Discord messages,
We'll see some previews of that front end and what that looks like. Super excited for the finished project or finished product. We've been working on this for quite a while. We had the application running up and running and it's been more than a few weeks and then we're going back and forth on design. So that's finally done. That'll be rolling out soon. Ideally, we're looking at this week, but I don't want to
to get a firm deadline out just yet. Just a reminder, you know, one of the ways to participate in AIDS Cross Rolls is you can fill out an application and then you can go ahead and hopefully be accepted. We haven't really released exact numbers on that yet, but just, you know, just to reaffirm, put it back out there, total collection size for AIDS Cross Rolls is only 220
So it will be very limited, but there will be very many ways to participate, whether you're an existing holder by staking or whether you go out in application through both of those portals. We're prioritizing just a pollers before anything, right? And that kind of goes back into, you know, how can we drive more attention in just ape is, you know, that that's one of those key components of, you know, that the
little things that we're doing to kind of contribute towards the growth of just ape in general. With that being said, this past week we also started teasing some of the arts for, you know, eights across worlds and one of the worlds on this next week will also be deteasing more super excited roll that out. We'll also be doing our first partnership announcement. We're still waiting on one of our other
partners, we've been waiting with their legal team for more than a few weeks now. So hopefully you're here from here back from that soon so we can get that announcement out, you know, after, but regardless, we'll have will be doing to more world announcements this week as well as, you know, dropping some more sneak peeks of the art. Super excited for that. Other than that, you know, we
We've been looking at everything we want to do with Apes Crossworlds and different platforms. How can we build out different platforms that support that initiative? How can we essentially facilitate this community contribution in a way that allows it to be essentially frictionless that allows the community to have everything done in transparent manner in our solution of this way?
be to build out a governance platform that supported on polygon. We essentially want to use this platform, eventually scale it out again, you know, aside from this polygon, we look at these chain agnostic approaches. How can we, you know, potentially use this platform to apply to just eight to not necessarily be a governance platform, but a way where, you know, just a
When you go to Stakes, you want to potentially add suggestions or add some feedback, you'll use this platform to do that same thing. We want to take it a step further because essentially we want to use this platform to white label it, our potentially open source and offer to other projects as well. So super excited about that.
We finally this week we started on the tech specs for the platform, started looking at different kind of features that we could kind of push forward with the platform to kind of really kind of push forward what we want to do. So obviously it'll make it debut with Apes Cross Rolls. That'll be one of the first things that we build there. So yeah, I'd say we should
have kind of previews for that platform within them, maybe the first to two week that Apes Across World launches. Other than that, yeah, that's, that's, it'll be something that's, I'd say, pretty unique in the ecosystem, especially on polygon. You know, there's, there's just kind of this big niche on polygon to kind of really hit the ground running and that's something that we want
want to do with everything that we're building there with Apes Cross World potentially bringing our award system over to PauliGon as well. But yeah, those are the majority of the Apes Cross World's updates moving on. We've been talking for a couple weeks now about potentially doing something in FTNYC. So happy to report that we finally secured one of our sponsors and our
I'd call them a co-host and at this point in time we're currently pushing out the partnership deck to more projects. We push it out to Magic Aid and we push it out to Polygon. We push it out to a lot of Polygon projects as well as some you know Ethereum projects as well as some Solana projects. So super excited to see where that leads at this time.
I'm currently I am April 13th for the event. So we'll hopefully have more details on that soon as well and announcement. But in conclusion, these are the majority of the updates this past week for just April across the world and the larger community itself. Keep an eye out for that. The sneak peeks of the traits that are dropping soon.
I do want to say, you know, I was reading some feedback the other day and discord about, you know, trade swaps and trade drops. And, you know, the feedback was essentially that, you know, nobody really cares about trade swaps and that's this is tech that we've already built. So we want to continue to kind of utilize this, continue to provide that value out for the community, continue to
these new interesting traits that kind of do it adhere to the just-apestetics and also kind of continue on that mission of, you know, if you don't want to use the traits you can always throw it on the trait marketplace, completely up to the community. But aside from that, definitely want to leave some time on the floor if anyone had any questions, anyone had any concerns, any feedback, feel free to raise your hand, happy to
bring it bring you up and you know come answer these questions come answer any kind of concerns yeah we'll leave about two minutes but yeah aside from that you know feel free to go ahead and just raise your hand I'll just keep talking you know aside from that I will say you know we're at this unique time for aves across worlds to tie you
and this really big spotlight on just Ape in general. I personally think it will do a lot of good in terms of everything down to what we're doing with the application, down to the platform that we want to build for governance, down to potential partners that we're bringing on. I will say right now we're currently speaking to Magic
to use that as a potential launch partner simply because of all the benefits that will provide for the project, for the business, for the for just a general. And we're more than likely to go that route, but we're at this unique time to really shine a light on everything that we've done and we built on Solana for just a so we want to continue pushing in that direction. How can we continue
to look at these different things that we built. How can we continue to make these things change, agnostic? How can we continue to scout this software as a service and potentially not only offered on Solana, but also offered on Polaragon, right? We want to continue building in a way that's meaningful for not only us, but also for the community. And I think we know the idea is in everything that we've been
Discussing internally with with a cross-rewardals really fits into that idea and pushing that you know pushing that project forward pushing just eight forward and really kind of attracting this this native audience that wants to ultimately contribute for better ecosystem But yeah aside from that, you know, those are the bulk majority of the updates. I see nobody raised their hands so
We'll go ahead and end it here. If you have any questions, any kind of concerns for you dropping discord, we'll be dropping that tweet preview of all the traits that are dropping this next week. We'll be dropping that shortly after this ends as well as the medium article that keeps in line everything.
thing, everything that I pretty much discussed today. Aside from that, again, thanks to all for joining. I know it's a Sunday, some people like taking it off, but yeah, appreciate all joining and taking the time of coming out with us. As always, if you have any kind of comments, questions, suggestions, feedback, go ahead and drop in Discord. It was great chatting with everyone. Stay with everyone.
