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.
