ABSTRACT
This proposal presents the idea of creating an ecomm site where customers can customize items like mouse pads for gaming, wall art, t-shirts, and more - and checkout with crypto.
A customer will be able to create and purchase a custom item by uploading any .PNG, .JPG, or .PDF images. They will then check out with Bitpay, a checkout tool that accepts Bitcoin, Ethereum, ApeCoin, and more cryptocurrencies in exchange for goods and services. To bring more exposure to $APE, a custome…
Abstract:
I’m proposing the DAO fund a service that orders, packages & ships custom merch kits based on the buyer’s NFT & social media handles. The kits will include an assortment of custom items such as: Ball Cap, Conference Badge, Pins & Stickers. The box itself would be a custom collectible for the buyer to store conference materials or memories in.

I think there is a generally favorable opinion among pretty much the entire Yuga ecosystem that we want high quality, interesting, inclusive and wide assortment of cool merch, specifically coming out of the DAO.
While others have tried to tackle this issue with some designs or ideas for a merch shop/marketplace - it feels like a very tough lift at once, considering all the moving parts where you need a big team consisting of people who are experts in designing, sourcing, online ship building, shipping and all the other supply chain logistical costs that come with it as well.
One of my ideas is that we have a discussion as a community to see what type of designers or people in the fashion world we want to reach out to and at the very least get started on step 1
Title:
Official ApeCoin DAO Merch, SWAG & Promotional Items Store
NOTE: Zero funds or revenues are given back to the DAO, this is an independent and sustainable endeavour managed and operated by members of the community for the community.
One-sentence summary:
This proposal suggests creating an eCommerce merch store for ApeCoin DAO community members to purchase high-quality ApeCoin DAO gear and IRL event supplies with unique and attractive designs that embody the spirit of the ApeCoin DAO community. Cost+ pricing for payment in $APE
As you can see, lots of like-minded members in the DAO that together could be a mighty collective.
Also, AIP-246 Marketing & Communications Working Group may also be a good place to integrate your ideas, etc.
Good luck - see you in the Discords and ApeComms Spaces
