4 min readNov 21, 2021
As a tribute to legendary Ape Gang OG, ChefCryptoChris, we decided to continue naming Ape Gang’s weekly newsletter “The Peel”. The Peel drops every Saturday around 12noon — 5pm EST and includes roadmap updates plus other notable news from the Ape Gang Universe

Roadmap & project updates

Here’s a recap of what we achieved the last week in terms of roadmap progress and notable new projects being embarked on.

Roadmap 3.0 is our most ambitious roadmap to date. Once we’re finished executing on it, Ape Gang will belong to the absolute Super League of NFT projects

Metaverse, Gang Wars, Voxel for Ape Gang holders, Merchandise

We’re in build-build-build mode and everything is on track. It wouldn’t be a normal week at the office without a few leaks from founder Jokong.

Ape Gang’s Voxel projekt is well under way

$GANG token release

It’s official! December 15th marks the launch of Ape Gang’s official utility token, $GANG. Yes, you will have to pay gas in order to migrate your apes to our new contract. But with all the cool things we have planned for $GANG, we think it will definitely be worth it.

Ready for action!

Social media

YouTube

We have huge plans to leverage on YouTube as a platform for exponential growth of our brand & community. You’ve watched us grow on Twitter & Instagram and now we’re entering the super league of social media channels

Within the very near future, our YouTube activities will add an additional stream of income to our community wallet and strengthen our position when it comes to securing high-value partnerships/sponsorships.

Our new content creator Omar (follow him on Twitter) did a great job with our first video “WHAT IS AN NFT? (101 Beginner Guide)”.

Instagram

A few days after we celebrated 4000 followers on Ape Gang’s Instagram, we rounded 5000 followers and now we have 6000 followers in sight. The growth is without a doubt a direct result of the great content we are consistently posting. Gotta love those Tinder profiles!

6000 coming soon!

Sherlock Holmes give-away — congratulations Imatt

We teamed up with Gangs of Ape City and Sherlock2050nft who designed an amazing 1/1 zombie ape to celebrate their new NFT comic.

Congratulations Imatt!

Imatt went bragging to his IRL co-workers next

Notable sales

This week the rares were back in action. The 20 ETH sale — of one of the most iconic pieces in Ape Gang’s collection — represents the second highest sales price on record.

Wow! Just wow!

Gotta respect this 3 ETH robot snipe!

Outlook for next week

We have some really big meetings lined up for next week and possibly a surprise podcast as well. Oh! And the Management Team will be beta-testing the metaverse in preparation for launch. Other than that, the grind continues.
