· 2026-08-26T11:30:00+00:00I think it’s finally time to share a little secret that’s been close to my heart. Ever since I first stepped into this space a year ago, I’ve dreamed of one day becoming part of the @BoredApeYC . It was never just about owning an NFT, it was about joining an incredibly special

· 2026-08-26T03:45:31+00:00There’s been a lot of things said about BAYC after the bag drop today Most glaring one is “why buy a BAYC if MAYC can get all the perks BAYC has?” MAYC was eligible for the bag drop today. Plus, they’ll get something exclusive just for mutants on Friday What are my thoughts? I

· 2026-08-26T19:50:17+00:00Why BAYC and MAYC beefing. MAYC has been holding this shit down. 1/8th of the price and they get the same benefits. Who’s really winning? MAYC>>>
· 2026-08-26T04:17:37+00:00Instead of going for this drop I let my fellow apes have more chances at securing one of these limited pieces. Since I have a mutant ape I feel like bored apes (the superior apes) should have more chances at getting the item than us. I hope you guys secured it!

· 2026-08-26T16:49:23+00:00I’m kinda wondering why Argonauts only has 57 traits. That feels pretty low for a collection this size. BAYC had 170+ traits for 10K, Pudgy Penguins had 150+ for 8,888, and even CryptoPunks had 87 for 10K. Not saying it’s a bad thing, just genuinely curious why they went with so

· 2026-08-26T21:32:50+00:00I haven't heard about any beef between BAYC and MAYC since the mint. Idk if it is some engagement trend or what but we are family. If I see mutant, I love mutant, I f I see Ape, I love Ape. That simple!

· 2026-08-26T06:07:33+00:00Not my business if MAYC is the same as BAYC - cuz I don’t really care. All that matters is that there is a cheap entry into the club. Happy to see Yuga doing drops, can’t wait until it’s innovative and people ape in again. And they will.

· 2026-08-26T05:46:32+00:00Since everyone’s talking about yesterday’s free bag drop, here’s how mine went: About half an hour before the drop, I created a new Tokenproof account.

For me my mayc was mainly bought to be official a club member, have my made by ape license and being able to get ApeFest tickets. I never looked or wanted any other benefits. I think till now I also just did the above and never

· 2026-08-26T13:10:57+00:00As a proud member of the @BoredApeYC and MAYC MEMBER I believe Bored Apes should always have a little better privilege when it comes to things like the bag claim ect. Or maybe have separate drops. But yes when it comes to things like the bag claim unless it’s one to one per
· 2026-08-26T10:50:44+00:00a free bayc sling bag has reignited the age old debate of apes v mutants in the big 2026. when it comes to club membership (utility) 1 ape = 1 ape and yes mutant apes are apes. this was settled by @CryptoGarga years ago. when it comes to provenance, bored apes are the genesis
· 2026-08-26T02:26:40+00:00I am all for different types of drops. Members can choose what they want. Would love for BAYC specific and MAYC specific things. We keep it pushing. Stay Bored.
· 2026-08-26T07:38:01+00:00NFT whales are back. And it looks eerily like 2021. NFT sales just hit $95.5M in 7 days, up roughly 170% WoW, while buyers and sellers surged nearly 50%. Pudgy Penguins volume jumped 244%, while CryptoPunks and BAYC also posted strong gains. 26 Pudgy Penguins were swept

· 2026-08-26T20:53:30+00:00I think this is the main topic which have to be considered in the mayc vs bayc debatte. Garga always said that they intend to deliver the value back worth the mint price. I know that everyone have a different cost basis, so i never really agreed with this take. So whats the

· 2026-08-26T07:48:20+00:00Glyph or Tokenproof? This is the question. I've been using both, but Tokenproof feels easier and friendlier. And last night went smoothly for me securing the @BoredApeYC merch. @mfigge mentioned that with this last bag drop, it will prob be the last time using Tokenproof.
