ApeChain Grants / Incubator / Start-up Fund
The moment has come. 🟡
As many of you know, an NFT Strategy typically collects fees from investors and uses them to buy NFTs.
That core flywheel model is fine and yes, we’ll have a standard collection launching soon. But our approach goes beyond that.
We’re building a perpetual NFT machine — but with real-world utility and community-first mechanics.
🧃 Lootboxes & Instant Flywheel Activation
In the near future after launch, we’ll introduce lootboxes that instantly activate the flywheel.
Every time someone purchases a lootbox, it triggers a buy & burn of the NFT strategy token on ETH — but at 1.5x the value.
Why 1.5x?
Because we don’t care about massive profit margins.
The goal is a sustainable loop where the game feeds the ecosystem with lower, consistent profit — not extraction.
🧠 The Human Touch: Funding ApeChain
Here’s the big moment:
🔸 1.5% of the total 10% tax fee will go directly toward supporting the ApeChain ecosystem.
But we’re not automating it, this will be a manual, human-curated process.
Because sometimes, human judgment is what creates real impact.
📍 Between 0.75%–1% of that will be used to fund an incubator/start-up program.
Whether you’re a builder, newcomer, or someone with a strong idea — you’ll have access.
We’re tired of how grants in the ApeCoin ecosystem often feel like a closed club.
We’re doing it differently, transparent, open, and community-empowering.
🔥 Flywheel That Works Even When the Market Doesn’t
We ask only 25% of profits from the projects we fund.
From that 25%, 90% of fees will go back to buy and burn the NFT strategy token on ETH.
This creates a decentralized flywheel that doesn’t rely on hype or daily volume.
It runs even when the market is quiet.
It runs because builders build.
📄 Google Sheet Coming
We’ll launch a Google Docs spreadsheet today or tomorrow, before the NFT Strategy goes live.
The incubator will be open to everyone, and submissions will be reviewed transparently.
A public-facing section will be shared on X, so the community can see, comment, and support ideas.
All wallets and fund flows will be 100% transparent.
And if you think 1% isn’t enough,
from just 5M in trading volume, that’s 50,000 USDC directed straight to start-ups, builders, and visionaries on ApeChain.
Not locked in red tape.
Not handed to insiders.
Put directly into the hands of those who want to build.

This is just one side of the 1.5% allocation.
The other half will be revealed in the next post. 👁️
