If you are bullish on the @DegenApeAcademy and the @DegenDAOO, there's also been a McFlurry of sales and activity with the @TheMcDegens as of late.

Here's my 🧵on why you should consider applying for a position . Image
If you haven't read my thread on why I am bullish on @DegenApeAcademy , you can read it here

Since then floor has been rising and more importantly # of owners is rising. #DAA blue chip status can't be ignored. You can see this recognition from the purchasing of @DegenApeAcademy by ETH participants as well. I'm betting repricing continues...

As origin story, 1st purchase by my buy group #7AC w/ @naloroad @gloom_sol was this McDegen.

We own top assets in SOL NFT Space:
Shirtless Seven SolFur SMB + Goku SMB
Legendary Boryoku Dragonz + Two BOOGLES

Our name 7 Apes Capital originates with this specific #DAA buy. Image
Thesis was simple then:

@DegenApeAcademy = Blue Chip SOL NFT
Historic value capture with #DAA
Fast Food is a Powerful Crypto Meme
Branding and aesthetic was Clean

We loved this Ape.
Convinced yet? Me Neither. So let's continue...

There is just this average Ape who chose to @TheMcDegens for him and his son. He's just happens to be the artist and head of the @DegenApeAcademy

You may have heard of @monoliff. He's an influencer. Image
Branding matters and having the head of @DegenApeAcademy @monoliff as a @TheMcDegens is powerful branding.

Here is a branding/marketing whiz that recently joined CT that shares his thoughts on branding for NFTs.

And yes @bigleaguin is a McDegen too.

Does this make @TheMcDegens brand global and billboard status? Why yes. Yes it does.

This was taken in Hong Kong's busiest square billboard. You can see @monoliff front and center. There are 2 McDegens. The other we will save for later... Image
The @DAA_HK is one of the reasons I'm bullish @DegenApeAcademy due to the exposure it brings to Asia which missed most of last NFT cycle.

@degen_burgerbob is one of the leaders of the group and yes, he too is a @TheMcDegens Image
Does this matter? Yes again.

Here he is on a billboard in HK and also being quoted by the South China Morning Post. One of the most important publication in the local market.

More leadership. More branding. ImageImage
Fast Food meme is global crypto meme. McDonalds is one of the most recognizable global brands. This makes the portability of the McDegens globally familiar.

Here is McDegens in Hong Kong with @degen_burgerbob . Hungry for more? Good. Image
Recently, good friend @ApeddaddyRick just got hired by the @TheMcDegens as well. He happens to be recently voted on the Student Council for @DegenDAOO and is well known and loved in the SOL NFT community.

More leadership, More branding. See the trend?

Branding doesnt stop just at the @DegenApeAcademy . During the previews of @DegenTrashPanda , you can see the @TheMcDegens play a prominent role and expand further with other brand attributes.

Yes, the brand is absolutely Trash now. Image
Branding led to unique partnerships and elevated recognition of the @TheMcDegens . Here is the @howrareis ranking of @JungleCatsIO . Rank #3 in the entire collection.

Branding matters. Image
Here was a multi-project collaboration with @TheMcDegens @PenguloveNFT and @ScoopShopNFT

And yes 3 ways are lot more fun and degen, ya filthy apes.

Thanks for the history lesson and yearbook pictures boomer.

What other reasons should you apply for a position at @TheMcDegens ?
@TheMcDegens were the first sub community for #DAA. This historically important and why it stands out as a sub brand within the larger collection.

Service hat and polo are separate traits but for the #DAA collection, these traits were locked together. Making branding strong. Image
There are only 90 @TheMcDegens Apes in the entire 10K collection. This is 0.9% rarity. With the lowest rank no lower than 7% overall.

@TheMcDegens are a rare and well branded and valuable sub collection of #DAA
I'm rather smooth brained and brain smohl. Listen to a bigger brain like @SOLBigBrain who had these thoughts before me on the @TheMcDegens

@TheMcDegens have now extended into the @DegenTrashPanda but the traits are no longer locked.

New attributes that extend McDegen theme across widening the visibility of the @TheMcDegens without diluting the 90 Apes.

This creates potential embedded future aspiriational demand Image
A prescient Ape saw the potential for the branding and sold his soul to become our beloved manager @DegenService . He is not only the leader of @TheMcDegens but also leader of the @DegenDAOO

Yes, he was the other McDegen on the HK Billboard.

More leadership. More branding. Image
He is also committed to hosting a verified members ONLY show weekly via discord. If you haven't heard his angelic voice, makes sure you listen to this.

I do daily. Multiple times daily.

Why now? There is an open call to action.

A new grape verified discord is being launched just for @TheMcDegens , new website, merch and alpha group.

First the Apes, then the rest of the McDegens universe.

I got my latest glue ape at 50% discount to prior paid price but value still exists.

Great value long term sub 3-400
Sub 200s @TheMcDegens sold to @LarryBape.
Sub 100-DM me for liquidity

The latest market employment snapshot. Time to apply is now.

Good? Yes. TLDR @TheMcDegens Value Combo

✅ Leadership of @DegenApeAcademy @DegenDAOO and @DAA_HK
✅ Strong Branding and Global Meme Power
✅ Growing talented community
✅ 0.90% Rarity Attributes
✅ New discord, website, merch & alpha group
✅ Good value

Thanks for reading!

For the new followers, Pengu used to write long threads to share insights into my thinking. I've not recently due to the time constraints to do so but felt this was an important topic to shed light as I've now publicly bought 3,169 $SOL into $BONK in 3 weeks

This is my thesis on WHY $BONK will outperform $SOLImage
But 1st- I'm a core contributor of $BONK and can directly benefit if number go up. I trade around my positions and can sell at any time. All my info is for entertainment purposes only. This is NFA. You should NOT take investment advice on twitter. I'm just a Pengu online
Before this comes across, I'm bearish $SOL it's quite the opposite.

$SOL is the darling of this cycle and continue to believe this is true. Pengu was betting heavily when people were scared to deploy capital into $SOL and accumulated position in the bear

What's going on with Polygon?

Claim's of Solana's successor already declared auto-Matic winner.

Let's take a deeper dive in comparing the two chains.

It's time for a Pengu 🧵
As a bit of background, I was a power user of Polygon when defi farming. There were rich reward incentives w/ Matic and used AAVE, Sushi and Curve there.

It was cheaper, faster and smoother experience than defi farming on ETH L1. (using an ETH pengu for emphasis)
Business Development (BD) team at Polygon has been crushing it w/ their web2 client wins. With each new big brand they get in partnership, easier the next one is.

This reduces career risk for web3 initiatives. There used to be a business saying, no one gets fired for buying IBM

It's easy w/ the deep bear market to focus on the things we've lost but I want to focus on what I do have.

Thanksgiving is expressing special thanks to my @solBOOGLE fam. They've had a large impact on my time here on Solana.

Different look into BOOGLEs and a gratitude🧵 Image
With our meetups at Miami HH & NFT NYC, there was a big push to get together at Breakpoint.

This was the first rally event at @helionsNFT hosted by their founder @Cypherj_sol and fellow BOOGLE.

Many of us meeting for the first time IRL including @earlyishadopter and @0xCelon. Image
We have an intimate tight knit community. There were many events but we often organically chose to spend time together. We're a small project but rolled deep and had big presence where we went.

We 🤍 our BOOGLE fam Image

Before I fade away for the weekend, have been asked my thoughts on the recent @MagicEden announcement on optional royalties.

My initial thoughts... they may surprise you.
First couple disclosures - I have no financial investment in ME. I have investments in competitive products/exchanges to them. Arguably better for me financially to see them continue to lose share.
Second - I feel they've handled themselves with community poorly and could invest in a seasoned IR/ PR / crisis management team or external firm. They've had some large public mistakes.

This situation was no different from what I hear about their spaces.

Given the EMPEROR collab collection has kicked off, I wanted to address an important topic from @mic333sol that he sparked with his tweet last night.

Some thoughts...
For context, I am referring to this tweet and specifically #3.

In full disclosure, I am NOT an Artist. I do not pretend to be one IRL or on TV. I cannot draw a circle. I am just Pengu.

There is NO formulate that fits all. This is just one Pengu's opinion. It may or may not be applicable to you.

On the week of the @solBOOGLE FINAL auction #100 and the high level of interest we received, sharing some thoughts on the invitation to join the premier network, luxury brand and exclusive community on Solana.

A mega 🧵 on history, price, journey and future of BOOGLE Image
But 1st- this is not a paid tweet. I own my own bags and directly benefit from number go up. I trade around my positions and can sell at any time. All my info is for entertainment purposes only. This is NFA. You should NOT take investment advice on twitter. I am a Pengu online
I size my trades based on my portfolio and risk tolerance. Do not copy pasta. You shouldn't invest more than you can afford to lose. I am often wrong and will be again. We're in a bear market, the key is to survive. No FOMO, make risk adjusted bets and capital preservation
