Also working with @AllCityBAYC for Asian Blockchain Summit, in Taipei for side events & more apecoin branding activation.

5. Your proposal would establish an ā€œF1 Fantasy League, where participation requires apecoin for fantasy participation.ā€
a.) The ApeCoin DAO will not support gambling in any form. If participation in the fantasy league requires a buy-in from its participants (with the prospect of winning money or money-equivalent), please modify your proposal to align with DAO guidelines.
b.) With respect to the point above, 50k of the requested 165k $APE in your Overall Cost section would be used toward a tiered F1 Fantasy League prize pool. Please clarify the requirements for participation in your proposed F1 Fantasy League.

Funneling all participants into a single f1 fantasy league, which currently will be using the official site, in future, will make plans to have our own platform on apechain with an estimated target of minimum 300++ active participants.

Participation will be free to join & get them onboarded to the ecosystem

Please note that there isnt betting element in the fantasy, users who join the fantasy will be able to select their favourite players to join the league, points rewarded based on the race outcome, end of the year we will check the leaderboard to determine the winner.

8. Some of your requested funding would go toward an ā€œIRL sim racing event during Malaysia Blockchain Weekā€ and an IRL F1 watch party at Token2049 in Singapore.ā€ Would either of these events feature any costs for attendees (admission, concessions, etc.)?

The event that we hosted will be free for the public, and intended for motorsport lovers to join and get to know about apecoin, our events from Malaysia, Taipei to Singapore will be working together with sim racing centre where we get web3 fans, and also existing community from the sim racing centre to join and get a mixture of audience.

9. Your proposal states that participation in The WEB3 F1 Fantasy League will be charged in APE, do you have any estimated costs for users to use the platform or any premium features?

The F1 Fantasy will be will be free for participate to join

10. Do you have plans to protect any collected user data? Please elaborate.

The platform that we are using will be the official F1 website, hence all data are protected from the main F1 Brand itself with their privacy policy

11. Since the budget is requested in ApeCoin, would the success of this initiative depend on the price of ApeCoin at the time of disbursement?

We will be changing to requesting the budget in USD, as most of the payment to third party vendors are dealt in USD

12. Do you anticipate raising any third-party capital? If so, please clarify, including who these anticipated third parties are, the fundraising period and any decks.

Yes, as the Malaysia Blockchain event is happening on the 28th, we went ahead and secure partnership with brands like:
