I joined @BoredApeYC yesterday and received 100+ #BAYC follows. Thanks for the warm reception! I DM'ed on Twitter to ask for advice on joining the community. Here's what I've learned! πŸ‘‡

#apefollowape
1. Get a hardware wallet. Never share seed phrase, QR code, or password. Don't click links in DMs/Discord. 5 apes stolen in 2 weeks alone. Read 🧡on securing NFTs by @punk6529.

h/t @Ryder3332, @baccredited @chefdrst @cryptoclawd22 @Accumul80r @ij_will

2/ Keep learning. Join different discords to get diversified opinions. If curious about ANYTHING, ask other Apes for help. They'll help, guaranteed. Follow great Twitter minds like @Zeneca_33.

h/t @ij_will @chefdrst @milkman_cookies @Ryder3332
3/ Avoid FOMO and buying after mint. Learn about contracts on etherscan, how to monitor, and mint directly. Follow great Twitter minds like @dragonseller88.

4/ More great Twitter minds to follow:
@richerd
@economist
@futureproofxyz
@dgennetwork
@boredapegazzette
@jenkinsthevalet
@NFTbark
@xBenjamminx
@beijingdou
@BoredApeGazette

h/t @Accumul80r
4/ Be a cordial, make connections. Meet Apes in real life by interacting with them on Twitter, Discord, and local event. One Ape cold messaged multiple CEOs and got responses with his pfp on LinkedIn. He'll be starting a new job in Jan!

1/ When @yowitzer was 12, he played an Amazon on Diablo II. A stranger on Battle.net promised to teach him how to dupe. Joined a lobby and followed the instructions. Howie's body exploded and all his items dropped to the ground. The stranger picked them all up.
πŸ‘‡
2/ Howie cried.

Luckily, Howie can heal his childhood Internet gaming trauma through Web3.

Howie recently left his job in finance as a quant at a stock exchange to become the game economy designer for @GuildOfGuardian at @Immutable. A Play-to-Earn NFT MMORPG.
3/ One key difference vs Web3 gaming is that in Diablo II, Howie never actually owned the items. They resided in business servers. And his character could be deleted if he stopped playing the game. When they're NFTs, even if the game disappears, the NFTs are still always there.

1/ We're introducing a podcast series where we bring on friends to learn about what's happening with Web3. On this episode @Jaydchang tells us his journey cofounding @genopets - a Play-to-Earn NFT MMORPG.

Here's what we learned: πŸ‘‡
2/ VCs invest in crypto companies using SAFTs (Simple Agreement for Future Tokens).

Similar to the traditional VC model with SAFEs (Equity).

Allows VCs to quickly invest money with the company promising to give them a % of tokens with cap/discount.

3/ Having a successful token launch/NFT requires building an engaged and excited community. @genopets built out their Discord to 130k members prior to a token launch and genesis NFT sale. One of the ways they got people excited was their evolution demo: demo.genopets.me

Super excited to join @BoredApeYC today. I've been thinking a lot about #BAYC. Took me awhile, but I think I finally understand it. Any advice for someone new is welcome! #apefollowape

Here's what I've learned. A thread 🧡: Image
Sapiens came to dominate the world because it is the only animal that can cooperate flexibly in large numbers.

We've been able to do this because of our unique capacity to believe in Fiction.

To believe in Stories.
When we collectively believe, we achieve the impossible. Religion is a story. Nations are a story. Corporations are a story. Technology is a story.

When we collectively believe something has value, it has value. Money is a story. Bitcoin is a story. @BoredApeYC is a story.

1/ Who is the Asian man running for president who wants to give everyone $1,000 who won't wear a tie?

πŸ‘‡To prepare for @AndrewYang's third qualified debate, like and retweet this thread to share with everyone that doesn't yet know! #Yang2020 #YangGang
2/ @AndrewYang built nonprofit Venture for America and ran it for 7 years. Trained entrepreneurs to help create jobs in cities like Detroit, Cleveland, St Louis, Birmingham, New Orleans. Was given awards by Obama Administration and had documentary made by Netflix.
3/ Yang discovered there was a deeper problem. Every job he helped create, he realized we lost a thousand. β€œI saw that we were pouring water into a bathtub that has a giant hole ripped in the bottom.”
