If you’ve been following me for a while, you probably know I’ve been in crypto for almost five years now. Honestly, I can’t believe I survived this long. I came in during the peak of the 2021 NFT madness when everyone was minting, FOMOing like crazy and floor prices were flying every day. And there I was, holding my BAYC and grinding nonstop, joining NFT NYC, running around HK Apefest, doing everything on and offline like a maniac. But these past two years hit differently. Watching my friends sell their apes one by one and quietly exit the club… not gonna lie, it stings a little. We went through everything together, the hype, the chaos, the wins, the breakdowns. And now when I look at the BAYC floor price, I literally have to breathe three times before I lose it. How did we even end up here? @yugalabs really needs to sit down and reflect. The community keeps hyping itself, shouting slogans and coping nonstop, but the official progress has been so slow I sometimes wonder if the whole team took a long vacation together. The direction is blurry, the execution is weak and half the time I can’t even tell who is driving this ship. Meanwhile, @pudgypenguins is actually doing the work: 🔹 Building momentum 🔹 Building products 🔹 Expanding their IP 🔹 Collaborating with brands and industries everywhere You open any social platform and it’s almost impossible not to see Pudgy pop up somewhere. Let me be brutally honest. @BoredApeYC lost on every front. Narrative, execution, branding, community culture. Pudgy outperformed them in every category and it’s not even close. I’m not trying to hate or start drama, but after holding BAYC for almost four years, I think I’ve earned the right to say this. This isn’t a NFT bear market issue. This is a Yuga issue. I loved it, I held it, I believed in it. But looking at today’s floor price, all I can say is: The club we once aped into together… the memories are now worth more than the asset itself.
