A recurring sponsored segment on Wednesday at 9:45am EST on Coffee with Captain. Clip will be captured and Audiograms can be repurposed as shorts ApeCoin Youtube.
4) ApeChain will become the home of Coffee with Captain
Through a multi-phased approach we will migrate all of our future published content to be hosted on ApeChain. Beginning with our weekly show summary
Potentially a fork of Mirror or Paragraph
To be clear, this proposal does not take into consideration the development of, or funding of an on-chain publishing platform, rather a commitment to making ApeChain our home for published content and we’d love to work with others in the community who build the platform.
5) With a partnership in place Cap & Steve will actively seek news and events from the ApeChain community to discuss organically on CwC throughout the week, in addition to the Made By ApeCoin Monday segment.
6) Two professional audiograms per week will be provided to the ApeCoin DAO, ApeComms, and the MBAC brand that was featured. An example of an audiogram clip produced by Macki can be seen quote tweeted here - capturing the attention and engagement of other leaders in the space.
Overall Cost: $85,000 USD paid in ApeCoin.
