AIP-88: Earn ApeCoin Revenue Through Our No-Code NFT Drop Platform & Launchpad - Ecosystem Fund Allocation
ABSTRACT
We want to become a launch pad to help make ApeCoin NFT project ideas come to life. Through our established no-code, self-serve smart contract platform, NiftyKit, anyone can launch a project on our platform in just minutes, unlocking accessibility for the next generation of NFT creators. By building deep integration with ApeCoin, we can unlock new levels of utility for the token, making it the foundational coin for the creator economy.

AIP-96: Funding for Public Goods (ETHGlobal & Gitcoin) - Ecosystem Fund Allocation
ABSTRACT
This AIP provides for $200,000 in APE to fund hackathons and grant programs for people building for ApeCoin. The funding will be distributed across three initiatives: Ethereum Foundation’s upcoming ETHOnline hackathon, a dedicated Gitcoin ApeCoin ecosystems grant program, and Gitcoin’s Change program. Participating in these initiatives gets ApeCoin more visibility and encourages developers to build for this community. It also serves as a way for ApeCoin to support public goods and other communities.

AIP-91: Ape&Talent - Platform to connect talent within the Ape community - Ecosystem Fund Allocation
ABSTRACT
One of the perks of being an Ape is belonging to one of the strongest communities within the Web3 world but sometimes it’s hard to communicate what you can do for the community or what the community can do for you. This AIP proposes the creation of a platform that facilitates the connection of talent/needs between the Ape community: BAYC, MAYC, BAKC and ApeCoin holders.

AIP-98: A Community-First ApeCoin DAO Marketplace Proposal - Brand Decision
ABSTRACT
A community marketplace is a natural next step for the ApeCoin DAO. A successful community marketplace will: drive adoption of $APE through $APE listings, drive traffic to the ApeCoin DAO (apecoin.com), and decrease fees to community members by building a APE-native marketplace with rich ape-specific user experiences. In order to compete this marketplace must be cost competitive with fees in-line with or lower than competitors like X2Y2.
Our marketplace will host all Yugaverse projects in a single marketplace UI, with dramatically reduced fees, keeping $$ in the BAYC ecosystem and improving the marketplace experience for both buyers and sellers.
While we have a lot to share, some notable key features of the marketplace are the following:
- Leveraging @reservoir0x’s open-source, on-chain orderbook to increase openness and composability.
- Aggregated orders from major marketplaces (OpenSea, LooksRare, X2Y2, Sudoswap, and more) to maintain a strong bridge to the rest of the NFT market.
- Native sales in $APE with no fees to users buying and selling in $APE.
- A .5% marketplace fee on $ETH listings and a .25% fee in $APE. .25% of all fees will be sent to a community-held multi-sig wallet on a monthly cadence. The use of funds can then be decided in a separate AIP. (more on why later) The .25% from $ETH will be converted to $APE and sent to the wallet.
- Development of contextual and ape-specific marketplace functionality, such as integration of key BAYC metadata, relation to the Otherside, and more.

AIP-93: A Marketplace for Apes, by Apes, built by Magic Eden - Brand Decision
ABSTRACT
Building a world class, low-fee marketplace for apes, by apes, powered by ApeCoin and run on the ApeCoin.com 51 domain:
Magic Eden’s vision is to build the ApeCoinDAO marketplace, the home for $APE holders to buy and sell ApeCoinDAO NFTs, including but not limited to BAYC, MAYC and BAKC, as well as Otherside Otherdeeds. All inside of the DAO’s native home at a 0.75% transaction fee and no cost to the DAO. The marketplace strives to be the place where ApeCoinDAO members can share experiences and utility across the most powerful community in NFTs. Features include: combo ETH / APE bidding, discounts for APE payments, merch functionality, and custom engineering & marketing resources. Subject to approval of this AIP, future AIPs may propose a fee split between Magic Eden and ApeCoinDAO to create a revenue stream for the community as well as Launchpad capabilities, positioning the marketplace as a platform for DAO members to launch their own projects.

AIP-87: NFT + IP Marketplace / Yuga Labs + Otherside Partner NFT Collections - Ecosystem Fund Allocation
ABSTRACT
We believe in the following:
- To achieve the goal of growing the ApeCoin ecosystem, a core focus should be on increasing its use as a form of payment. Even within a bear market, NFT sales/trading continues to be one of the largest crypto-native economies.
- Projects should have their own marketplace, and the time is now for Yuga Labs & Otherside Partner NFT collections to have our own.
- It is time for a NFT Marketplace to evolve and serve the needs of the larger NFT economy. One that expands beyond the sale of NFTs but includes additional components like Intellectual Property.
We also believe actions speak louder than words. Instead of offering to build a marketplace, we built one first. It is currently live on the temporary URL: apecoin.x.xyz with the IP marketplace going live if the proposal passes. This allows the community to try the marketplace before voting.

AIP-113: Extending AIP-1 - the DAO Process - Process
ABSTRACT
The DAO’s operations rely on the Ape Foundation, which serves as a steward for ApeCoin by empowering the community to lead the DAO and helping to execute its vision. The terms of the Foundation’s relationship with the DAO were established on a six-month basis in AIP-1. That six-month period will conclude on September 30, and absent any alternative process for continuing the DAO’s operations, will bring with it the risk that the DAO falls into a vulnerable period during which it lacks actionable operational procedures. This AIP proposes a three-month extension of the terms laid out in AIP-1 to (1) provide time for the development of a proper and thorough Ape Foundation election framework and process; (2) allow the community to better understand and ultimately engage with whatever process emerges; and (3) enable the DAO to continue functioning coherently beyond September 30.

AIP-103: Ape Worlds: Shooter Edition - Ecosystem Fund Allocation
ABSTRACT
Ape Worlds: Shooter Mode is a focused proposal (based on API-78) to build a fun and addictive 3rd person shooter game for the Ape community in 4 months.
The game will allow anyone to play a shooter game with Ape-inspired characters directly in the web browser, bypassing app stores and gatekeepers, and be powered by the Ethereum ecosystem + Metamask.
