It is with a heavy heart I announce the sale of my long term ape, Salazar. Most of my early followers know me as this ape. My kids know me as this ape. I met my wife when I WAS this ape and had my first kid when I was still proudly wore this ape. By extension, it is part of me.

I’m sure his wife and kids are deeply relieved by this news.

Wow, if this is actually sincere and not a gift of some kind... this person is really sad and pathetic.

I wasted 15 minutes of my life to understand why he is staying that "blur" is crashing the price of that jpg

It looks like that there's a new nft marketplace that created some shitcoin as a reward for users. When someone trades a jpg , the platform print this worthless monopoly money and give as a reward for the user. Because there's dumb people that is buying this monopoly money thinking that surely it would be worth something, whales are exchanging those jpgs between them in order to get the free monopoly money as a gift, so they can dump them immediately and buy more jpgs to exchange.

What a waste of compute energy

but what kind of protest is "I'll have no choice but to sell the ape"?

like even if your "threat" is losing you as a member of the community, you're still selling it to somebody else who will just take your place

Two weeks ago myself and around 15 other high ranking ape members gathered at the recent International Ape Workshop in Miami

I have no idea how someone can say this with a straight face

Wtf did I read lol, half way through I thought I was having a stroke, apes vs Pacman!
