gm gm Last week, we introduced "The PunkApepen Trinity" and today we want to delve a bit deeper into the details. - What is "The PunkApepen Trinity"? - What are the next steps? - How can you support us? First, a quick recap of last week: As you all know, this started as a pure art project by myself and has grown much larger than we expected. So, the core team sat down together to discuss what PunkApepen means to us and what we would like to do with it. Thus, we came up with "The Papp Trinity." Trinity, because we all agreed on three major pillars on which we would like to build: WE PAPP’IN (Incubator / Support) One of the main aspects we all had, and which is very important to me, is to support and build with the community. And this cannot be rushed; it needs time to really think about it and exchange ideas with you, the community. So, what does this mean? Do we have a plan for how this will look like? NO! There is no blueprint for this, and we all should think about how this could look. What support can we give you as an artist, creator, developer, …? What's your idea for a product, for example, and where do you struggle? Can we support with our knowledge and experience? We believe this will be a longer journey. We need to talk a lot, discuss things, and maybe even build small workgroups depending on the idea and so on. Sometimes, this would be some sort of mentorship; sometimes, it needs more. I think you know what I mean. This should be a community effort with substance! PAPP THE WORLD (Dope stuff with a dope community) This is more the classic Degen/Web3-Project part where we will have contests, meet-ups, raffles, a meme generator, etc., to have fun and inspire community engagement. PAPP LEGACY (Brand building) This is perhaps the pillar where we, the core team, can do the most for the community. We are here to stay, so building a brand and getting more income streams for PunkApepen is key to supporting the community and embarking on a new era of PunkApepen as a brand. So, what will happen next? We definitely see that we need more "action" on Discord and our socials, and there will be another announcement on this tomorrow. We are thinking a lot about the incubator and would like to hear your ideas on how this could look like (there will be a first idea to talk about from our side, coming in the next few days…). Of course, we are already collecting some initial ideas for merch, and we will be in touch with some manufacturers to find good and fair-quality products. I hope this gives you a nice little roundup and something to look out for. Stay tuned for the next announcements and make it PAPP!
