- Would the Ape Foundation be expected to engage in any of the steps of the AIP implementation? If so, please specify the steps and elaborate on how it would be expected to work.
A: No, nothing is required of the DAO, and I will execute on all steps.
a. Regarding any granted permission to use ApeCoin trademarks by the Ape Foundation, do you expect to maintain full ownership rights to the content and/or IP which may be created as a result of the approval of your proposal?
A: Yes, because my products and brand are based on the IP of my Ape. All rights will be reserved by Bored Labs, LLC. which my products will be registered under.
b. Would your expectation be to keep complete ownership of all content produced from this proposal?
A: Yes. I will retain complete ownership of everything produced under this AIP.

Please provide a more thorough description of your other team members including any relevant professional and academic history.
A: The only other team member I have is Jack @idrawanimation which is my illustrator for my children’s book. I wrote the book and will publish it. I created the e-commerce site and will build the shopify and apecoin payment system. I will order the plush and nfc chips from IYK. I will install them and customize myself. I will handle shipping and marketing as well. -
Please provide a schedule which you will commit to for sharing progress reports to the community.
A: I will share an official quarterly report of my progress. Reports will list out details of completed, pending and future tasks, quarterly budget analysis, and overall progress. I plan on sharing many updates through x along with released articles and blogs of this experience with the community. -
Are there any estimated costs for users to use the platform’s features, or any premium features that may be present on the platform?
A: There are no user costs or premium features with anything I’m doing. Even with apechain interactions, fees are covered. -
Please provide a revision of your Steps to Implement and Timeline section.
A:
Q2 - Begin illustrations and editing the children’s book. Begin The Happy Ape plush creation by ordering a prototype. Continue building e-commerce site and shopify. Place order for 10,000 nfc tags from IYK. Begin integrating ApeChain into IYK platform.
Q3 - Make revisions to The Happy Ape plush prototype. Manufacture The Happy Ape plushies by placing an order of 5,000 on a finalized prototype. Publication of the children’s book. Order 5,000 books. IYK adds support for ApeChain to their app with official testing. Begin Integrating NFC tags into children’s books. Audit ApeChain DApp and IYK. Integrate the ability to accept apecoin into the e-commerce site and test it. Look into shipping and handling arrangements and decide to offload or handle myself. Ask the apecoin community to vote on a few schools and hospitals to deliver books and plushies to.
Q4 - Receive order of 5,000 plushies and install nfc tags into them. Finish IYK nfc tag customizing. Finish up any final tests between the app, apechain, IYK, and e-commerce site. Once everything is tested and ready launch the thehappyape.io e-commerce site with products for sale. The launch of products for sale is the final executable step in this AIP outside of gross revenue payments back to the dao. If plushies arrive on time from manufacture I will feature both products at apefest in Lisbon. I will deliver products to the apecoin community voted schools and hospitals.
2025 - Pay 20% of gross revenue back to ApeCoin DAO Monthly or until products sell out.
- Are there any particular key performance indicators that the community should be aware of for each of your milestones?
- The manufacturing of the plushies takes a long time and this will be the only thing to possibly delay the q4 launch.
- Include a date which the community may consider your proposal as having been fully implemented.
- The goal is to launch the e-commerce site and make products available for purchase which marks this AIP as fully implemented. The delivery of products to schools and hospitals is a personal promise I would consider a fulfillment of this AIP as well.
- Detail the associated costs, any personnel, and the platforms to be used for each of the steps.
- Personal costs will range from handling marketing, additional development infrastructure and testing, any charges for publication or registration fees, monthly service charges like shopify, adobe photoshop, manual labor for nfc tag installation and customizing. If I travel to hospitals or schools then it will be on my own dime.
- State any specific requests directed to the APE Foundation for each step, if there are any.
- There are no specific steps needed by the foundation.
- Do you provide consent to apply updates to the relevant areas of your proposal based on your responses to the questions above including any formatting updates to match the most recent version of the AIP Draft Template?
A: Yes - Do you provide consent to share these questions and answers with the community in this forum?
A: Yes
