You, Me, & Web3 LIVE with JBond

This week we welcomed JBond yet again, this time for a live discussion on how to grow a Web3 business using decentralised IP.

It’s a particularly relevant topic as we celebrate the ApeCoin DAO’s approval for our Ape Accelerator, which will eventually become an engine for growth for the BAYC ecosystem through projects just like the ones JBond has founded.

Animoca Brands subsidiary, Forj, receives ApeCoin DAO approval to build first Bored Ape Yacht Club ecosystem accelerator

Posted on by super super

Ape Accelerator will incubate and launch new projects that strengthen the Bored Ape Yacht Club and ApeCoin ecosystems

18 May 2023 – Forj, an Animoca Brands subsidiary and a Web3 technology leader, has been granted approval from the ApeCoin DAO to launch Ape Accelerator, an incubation platform for the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) community. 

This new initiative, which was submitted and approved via ApeCoin DAO’s Idea Proposal system (see AIP-209), will incubate and launch projects that strengthen the BAYC community and ApeCoin ecosystem, and will be powered by ApeCoin tokens (APE). A grant of APE tokens was approved by the ApeCoin DAO community for the purpose of building and launching Ape Accelerator.

Ape Accelerator aims to engage the ApeCoin community as Initiators, Voters, and Participants. Initiators can submit proposals for projects to be incubated, while Voters can use their APE tokens to vote on whether the proposed projects should be launched. Participants will be able to support approved projects by purchasing NFTs and other tokens.

The launchpad within Ape Accelerator will initially operate on the Ethereum network and feature a tiered structure for participation, based on users’ APE stakes and qualifying NFT holdings. User tiers will determine benefits such as priority sales, higher purchase limits, and better allocations of rare NFTs. Tier requirements can be defined through an ApeCoin DAO voting process.

Harry Liu, CEO of Forj, said of the new initiative: “We are thrilled to have the support of the ApeCoin DAO community to bring Ape Accelerator to life. Our goal is to create new opportunities for builders and creators within the Bored Ape Yacht Club ecosystem, and with Ape Accelerator we can empower projects that will achieve just that.“

Yat Siu, the co-founder and executive chairman of Animoca Brands, said: “Ape Accelerator is an innovative approach to leverage the democratic potential of the BAYC and ApeCoin ecosystem, and to empower creators and showcase the power of community governance in Web3. We’re looking forward to the incredible projects that will emerge from this initiative.”

Forj has been a BAYC holder since May 2022 and has consistently sought to empower BAYC intellectual property and foster community growth. In a recent partnership with The Sandbox, Forj built a Bored Ape-themed metaverse experience, Monkeying Around, which attracted 46,000 unique players.
Ape Accelerator will launch later this year. Projects interested in being incubated on the Ape Accelerator can contact Forj at ApeAccelerator@Forj.Network.

Bondly Finance is now Forj

Our eagle-eyed Bondly community members may have noticed something strange going on over the last seven days, with a breadcrumb campaign designed to drop a series of clues, which revealed that Bondly has now become Forj!

The name Forj – the phonetic spelling of ‘Forge’ – was selected for its association with creativity and partnership, two things that perfectly encapsulate why we’re here, and how we want to revolutionalize fan and creator engagement. 

This move begins with a complete overhaul of our brand look-and-feel, alongside a sparkly new website, as we set ourselves up for the next adoption wave of Web3 technologies, which as you’ll see over the coming weeks and months, is just the start.

There will be plenty more to come about our brand values, ambitions, and how our business will be changing to meet the demands of tomorrow’s consumer, but for now, take a look at our launch video, for a quick overview of what our new Forj brand looks like.
