Proposal Description:
We aim to materialize IPs and provide community members the opportunity to own their 3D models for free. We would also like to provide income for APE community members by offering booths for 3D IP model display and sale, with all net profits going back to the APE community members. Apecoin will be used for transactions throughout the process.
We will print 3D models for APE community members, such as KODA, BAYC, MAYC, Mocaverse, etc. For IPs without 3D modeling, we will provide 3D modeling diagram for up to 100 NFTs. For those with 3D models, we will print it for members directly. Each KODA, BAYC, MAYC, and Mocaverse holder can print their model once and choose to sell or keep it. Each model will have the “Powered by Apecoin” logo printed on the back.
Benefit to Apecoin Ecosystem:
- Providing Income for APE Community Members:
- We will offer 3D printing opportunities for KODA, BAYC, MAYC, and Mocaverse. Members can choose to sell or display their models at the 3D IP model booths. Pricing will be determined by the IP holders, and all net profits will go to the APE community members.
- Maximizing Brand Exposure:
- Each 3D model will feature the “Powered by Apecoin” logo, increasing community cohesion and enhancing meaningful engagement and value.
- Utilizing Apecoin in Transactions for Real-World Utility:
- Apecoin will be used for transactions at the 3D IP model booths, encouraging its circulation and usage.
- Synergy Between Digital and Physical Presence:
- The combination of online promotion and physical model presence will amplify impact, attract visitors and media attention, and extend global reach.
