- Evil: Thank you for the trust Apewhale bro!
I did requested them to make a sample shoe with $ape markings and stiches but unfortunately I came to the realization that we cant use Apecoin logo just like that until and unless AIP passes. But I have asked them to create a simple sample piece with a printed logo instead that can be used to showcase here for the community. This will be just a “printed” version but in final production it would be full on stitched pattern and color scheme.
Evil:
As soon as the proposal is accept and funds are deployed, we’ll provide the community with a formal set of designs varying from color schemes and overall structure. This will take 2-3 weeks. Interested and passionate community members are free to suggest their own liking of shoes to be inspired from or suggest design changes. Ultimately its the community who decide which shoe will see the final production line.
Once the community votes via a poll on the forums, we’ll start production of the shoes. This will take around 1-1.5 month approx for manufacturing 1000 shoes.
And ofc, the community will be the one to decide which design will see the assembly line.

AIP-479: Coffee with Captain Powered by $APE on ApeChain
by Apewhale - No Role
Posted on: June 22, 2024, 6:39 p.m.
Content: These type of partnership/sponsorships make sense for the obvious reasons. What’s curious to me though is, should or would the MarComms budget account for this type of thing? It’s marketing and communications. Right? Maybe it’s a bit more than that as you’ve listed, but at the end of the day it’s marcomms.
Side note: There was a recent idea to sponsor threadguys podcasts. He just did that Iggy Azalea one that got lots of views. Eyes. Exposure. I’m not saying that to compare CwC with his work, since the audiences may be different. But it’s marketing.
So that takes me back to…should these type of asks be via the MarComms team’s budget (which was approved)?
Either way, you guys do great, consistent work with your shows and content (CwC is part of my daily morning routine). So this is a no brainer for marketing and exposure.
Regarding ThankApe integration, that would be interesting. Would you be using part of your AIP funding to reward contributions or would you want ThankApe to use their funding for that? It would be important to point that out in the AIP if you go that route, just for clarity.
If I think of anything else I will be sure to come back. Good luck on the AIP!!!

- CaptainZwingli: First, thank you for the support and for tuning in!
Secondly, great question!
I’m not really sure about the budget for ApeComms and if any is intended for this. Will reach out and explore. It appears that their 6 month budget included $15K for PR/Comms/Social Media and $145K for Content Ecosystem - but I couldn’t find any details in regards to the specific plans or how that was intended to be distributed.
Re: the idea to sponsor TG’s podcasts, it appears the general consensus has been an aversion to branding sponsorships with content creators in web3; rather prefer to spend funds on F1 team sponsorships.
This is part of the reason for our desire to incorporate a segment or two, so that in addition to the branding element we’d be driving specific attention to MBA brands, founders and what they’re building… as well as a DAO update if we decide to incorporate that as suggested.
Re: Thank Ape - our initial thought was that we’d promote their current programs and funding, several of which will crossover to several of the MBAC brands we’d be featuring.
Not opposed to funding ourselves - and this is partially why the amount of $ape in our ask has been omitting so far… attempting to get a better idea of the most preferred scope.
Thanks for the feedback and ideas!

AnnieRawrz:
Doesn’t solve the problem Apewhale is trying to discuss though. It’s not the working groups that are the problem.
I just looked at it and I think you are right. It doesn’t seem to address the removal of elected candidates from a working group or position.

- Lost.Admin: Apewhale:
Is it possible for an AIP to be written up to remove and or impeach elected folks from positions? Hypothetically speaking of course.
@Apewhale, the hypothetical question that you posed seems to be asking whether or not it would be possible for someone to simply create a proposal suggesting to remove or impeach members of the DAO who have been elected into the various roles.
There is a some room for interpretation with your question, and I should have clarified what you’re asking. My first response was meant to address the fact that members of the DAO have previously submitted proposals aiming to remove or impeach certain elected members.
Apewhale:
It doesn’t seem to address the removal of elected candidates from a working group or position.
Are you asking for more information about the exact process for removing, or impeaching, a member from a particular role?
Or something else?
@SmartAPE, quoted from AIP-466: Proposal To Close Non-Essential Working Groups :
AIP-466: Proposal To Close Non-Essential Working Groups
To TERMINATE the contracts of all the stewards in the affected working groups, and with a minimum of 30-days notice given to the affected stewards.
This seems to indicate the “termination”, or removal, of several currently elected Stewards. I’ll be interested to see the final Draft.
