Heyo ApeCoiners! SSP here (BAYC 3753) I'm a passionate member of and also a delegate candidate for the ApeCoin DAO. First a few bullet-points: • Have earned a Trust Level 3 in Discourse (Aficionado Badge - 1 of only 7) • Active member of ApeComms (go ApeComms!) • Co-Host in our AIP Roundup, Community Hour, AIP Ideas Twitter Spaces - more to come • Author of AIP-64 (IRL Events Feasibility Study) • One of only 13 recipients of DAO Grants in 2022 • Have had both approved and rejected AIPs 😆 Currently leading ApeCoinIRL, a Decentralized Events Network that supports and funds hundreds of local events across the globe, hosted by BAYC/MAYC Clubs and active in Working Group Zero, where I work tirelessly to improve the overall health of the network. ++ Okay, enough of that - if you're still reading, thanks for making it this far. Basically, ApeCoin DAO has SO MUCH promise. And personally, I'd like to see a thousand experiments shared, debated, and funded from the ground up versus creating some sort of mothership corporation that dictates what the DAO will work on. I am hopeful that at least a large % of the treasury will be set aside for this experimentation. I am committed to 24/7 contributions to the community, ensuring that ApeCoin remains at the forefront of innovation and pushing Web3 Culture forward. I believe that my dedication to the community and my active contribution and participation in ApeCoin make me a pretty decent candidate for the role of delegate. I would be honored to have your support, to continue to serve the ApeCoin community and to help shape the future of this exciting project as we slowly move to being a decentralized autonomous organization. Thanks for considering me as your delegate candidate. SSP SSPnft.eth PS - I'm an EPL Maxi ⚽️, a SuperFan of '70s Music (8-tracks anyone) & '70s Retro Fashion (flared jeans anyone) and live on that bridge between digital and analog, web2 and web3, and oh yeah, I'm on the board a major community foundation with $$M's AUM (non-profit/social good).

AIP-264: Resubmission of AIP-232 Building Apeverse: A Multi-language Information Hub for the Ape Ecosystem
ABSTRACT
The creation of Apeverse, a multi-language information hub, is aimed at streamlining the dissemination of information and promoting community engagement within the rapidly expanding Ape ecosystem. As the Ape community continues to grow, there is a growing need for a platform that offers readily accessible information on the latest developments, data, and activities within the ecosystem.
Beyond serving as an information resource, Apeverse also functions as a platform where community members can interact and collaborate, thereby fostering a sense of unity and facilitating growth. It keeps track of dynamic changes relating to Apecoin and Ape-associated NFTs, and provides data analysis to illustrate the ecosystem’s progress, thereby enhancing transparency and accountability within the community.
Apeverse surpasses language barriers to become an essential hub for information delivery, given the rich array of information the Ape community encounters daily but lacks a singular space to consolidate it efficiently. Therefore, Apeverse is seen as a key resource for the community, facilitating greater inclusivity and communication efficiency within the diverse global Ape ecosystem.

AIP-279: Bored Apes Storm Hollywood (BASH-AIP): Expanding the Ecosystem with Battle-tested IP Veteran and the Batman Producers
ABSTRACT
This proposal aims to expand the ApeCoin DAO ecosystem through the creation of an animated series pilot and three spin-off comic books, featuring characters owned by ApeCoin DAO holders. We envision a gritty, action-packed, and comedic, anime-inspired adaptation of the American Ape comic book series that prominently features ApeCoin as the primary currency of the Metaverse, reaching beyond the echo chamber of “Crypto Twitter” that is primed to be pitched directly to international streamers via our producing team’s existing development, production and distribution pipelines.
OVERALL COST
The team is requesting $300,000 USD in $APE to produce the animated series pilot and three (3) spin-off comics, expanding the ApeCoin DAO ecosystem’s lore and raising awareness of the ApeCoin ecosystem through an ongoing mainstream animated television show and secure an international distribution deal for the comic books.

AIP-273: ApeCoin to Co-Sponsor Encode’s upcoming University Hackathon!
ABSTRACT
On behalf of Encode Club 3, I’m excited to put forward this grant proposal for Apecoin to co-sponsor our upcoming four-week virtual Future of Blockchain University Hackathon. This global event aims to introduce sharp university students to leading blockchain protocols, providing the space for a four-week deep dive into the Apecoin ecosystem.
We anticipate driving greater engagement with Apecoin and promoting its adoption across an ever-expanding community. Apecoin’s involvement would include interaction with hackers during two 60-minute technical workshops and setting up to three challenges with accompanying prizes!
OVERALL COST
We kindly request Apecoin to sponsor our Gold-tier package, entailing a total commitment of $25,000. This sum is split between event organization, targeted marketing, hiring support, and other related costs ($12,500), and prizes to incentivise participants ($12,500). This carefully balanced investment in event logistics and participant motivation will help to ensure a successful, dynamic hackathon that champions innovation and brings the Apecoin community closer together.
