Nomination Statement

Concise statement on why you are running for the Special Council

Hey ApeCoin DAO family, it’s Zack! If elected to the Special Council, I’ve got big plans:

1. MORE Participation:

I want to see our community grow. Imagine, in just three months, boosting our engagement by 10X. Together, we can create more laughter, vibrant debates, and celebrate shared victories.

2. Encouraging Financial Diversification

I firmly believe in leveraging our funds intelligently, not only through grants but also by making strategic investments. Let’s be clever with our resources and safeguard our shared future.

3. Promoting Sustainable Growth

We are not here for a fleeting moment; we are building something enduring. I am committed to ensuring long-term growth for ApeCoin DAO. We are shaping a cultural evolution, and I will prioritize sustainability in all our initiatives.

And here’s my promise to you:

I’ll listen. Your voice matters, no matter where you choose to express it. Whether you reach out through tweets, DMs, or participate in Twitter Spaces, I will ensure that your thoughts are heard and valued. I understand that life gets busy, and you may not always have the opportunity to share your ideas on the ApeCoin website. Rest assured, I am here to make sure your voice counts, everywhere.

Don’t let anyone tell you ‘website or silence.’ With me, your voice counts, everywhere. Let’s embark on this journey together, have some fun, and make a real difference in our community!

Today, I stand humbly before you, sharing the same love for our DAO and the web3 culture that it represents. I am applying for the ApeCoin Special Council to channel this passion into action.

APE isn’t just a token; it’s our tool to shape the cultural landscape of the metaverse. Our shared initiatives, powered by APE, drive this cultural evolution forward.

My background gives me an understanding of the balance needed for sustainability. As a member of the Special Council, I will advocate strongly for the development and acceleration of sustainable revenue streams for our DAO. While not solely executing these strategies myself, I will work tirelessly to guide the narrative, coordinating closely with our legal team to ensure compliance. This focus is intended to secure our DAO’s long-term prosperity.

I also value the legacy we’re building. Collaborating with the legal team, I aim to maximize our influence far into the future, ensuring a lasting impact.

This application encapsulates my enthusiasm for our shared vision. I hope to embark on this journey with you, making our dreams a reality and creating a meaningful future and most importantly have fun.

@Zack74eth

My number one question I am asking to all nominees is, in your opinion what is the biggest hurdle we’ve yet to get past in the DAO?

[Sasha]

Loved chatting on Discord that night, dvee/Zack. Wish you the best in this election, would enjoy working alongside you if we both make it through. Cheers!

[StoicDegen]

Hi @Zack74eth
Love your thinking re treasurer and revenue models but there is a constraint currently in terms of legal and tax structure for the DAO to be able to earn revenue. What is your thoughts on overcoming this? Also how much time do you plan to commit to the role if successful?
Thanks
St01c

[Zack74eth]

Nice to have you here my friend

[Zack74eth]

This !

Now ask me why it is happening?

Multiple reasons that nobody is addressing.

• We’re all about being decentralized, but we’re only using English. Doesn’t really show off our global flair, does it? We need to be more inclusive.
• complexity. Our AIPs they are just “Proposals” simplicity is the key this is just small example. We need to start there.
• User experience. We’re running this place like a company where our investors and supporters are the customers and users. The thing is, we’re only treating them like DeFi/Crypto investors. We need to change that up.
• Here’s something interesting. I showed the ApeCoin site to over 100 non-crypto entrepreneur buddies of mine. You know what they said? It’s like a puzzle, We gotta be inviting eco system and able to scale.
• Our forum site works alright, but we can make it better. or just replace it.
  There’s always room for improvement, right?
• We are wasting time and don’t have a priority list.
• What’s the real value people get from our site? What’s that one thing that makes them come back? Right now, it’s all about governance. boring, no seriously extremally boring for most of people that even a Koda can’t fix it, But we can make it so much more. We can offer something that actually solves a problem for them, something that saves them time or helps them exchange value.

Now picture this. What if people logged onto apecoin.com and found all kinds of our accpeted proposals and got access to them there? The apps, and services right there? Like “Thank Ape”, for instance. What if they could use our platform to raise funds for their projects?

What if popular YouTubers and other content creators started directing their followers to our site?

We have the potential to be much more than a governance platform. We could be a platform for innovation, a space where people come to achieve their dreams or have fun. We could be like Kickstarter or Uniswap, but first we need to be welcoming everyone.

Let’s put ourselves in their shoes and think about what keeps them coming back. Let’s make apecoin.com a platform that adds direct value to people’s lives.

And you know what’s funny? We’re all trying to logically figure out how to manage and grow the DAO. Meanwhile, Yuga is out there adding utility to the DAO and help making it better with every move. But do you know what the best thing YugaLabs has built is?

IT’S US, THE COMMUNITY!

We are hungry people for success we are hungry to leave a positive impact

We can’t sit still

We can’t waste time and resources

We can be another force aligned with Yuga’s force to affect people’s lives and make the change!

Sasha, if people don’t choose me, I truly hope they’ll choose either you or @captaintrippy. I’d be more than satisfied with that outcome, You are a hidden gem for the DAO, I hope more people get the chance to talk with you

[Sasha]

[Zack74eth]

Why the orange background are the smartest apes out there?

ok… let me share my perspective on your questions…

First, it all begins with a decision, right? very few of us here in the DAO with some business background have noticed how challenging it can be to steer an organization that doesn’t have a steady flow of cash coming in. And it’s not exactly sustainable to give away grants, is it?

Now, about the foundation, it was set up to distribute grants, and the way it’s structured it can’t take in funds or revenue. But the DAO? It absolutely can. That’s why we need to kick off some serious chats with legal to map out the best ways to make this happen.

There’s always a way to do it, but someone’s got to step up and push things forward, and that’s where I plan to come in. Keep in mind, legal teams tend to answer our questions, but they aren’t typically out there pitching ideas on how we can level up, or providing answers to questions we haven’t thought to ask yet.

So, my plan is to keep this issue in the spotlight, set a solid deadline, and get the DAO ready to start accepting funds as quickly and as safely as we can. Ideally, we’ll strike a balance that aligns with the best practices so we can get the cash flowing and minimize the DAO’s risk.

Now, about time commitment
When I dive into something, I give it my 100%. Right now, ‘all in’ equals 15 hours of focused, determined work each day, I don’t take weekends off.

When I get elected for this role, you can bet I’ll be giving that same level of commitment to the DAO for my whole term.

Thank you for reaching out. It means a lot to me. Really.

Let’s make this happen!
