I was never the smartest kid in the room. At the start of high school, I was in the bottom sets for most classes. I wasn’t naturally gifted and nothing ever came easy, but that lit a fire in me. I didn’t want to stay where I started, so I pushed harder than anyone around me. By college I was one of the top performers, and by the time I graduated university, I was the top student in my course and department. I refused to settle and put in 10x more work than anyone around me. That mindset carried into Web3. I started with nothing. No followers. No network. Just a belief that if I showed up every day and stayed consistent, opportunities would come. So I started writing about NFTs, launched a Substack, interviewed some of the biggest names in the space, and had my writing published by outlets like CoinTelegraph and Decrypt. That meant everything to me. I built my audience post by post and grew to over 30,000 followers by showing up every single day and providing value. That same mindset drives everything we do at Chimpers. From day one, we said we’d build a brand that actually matters. A world built on story, creativity, and community. Not something built on hype or shortcuts, but something with real heart. The long term has always been our focus. It may have cost us in the short term at times, but we’ve always found a way forward. I don’t believe in losing and I don’t accept it. I’ll adapt, rebuild, and do whatever it takes to grow and keep moving forward no matter what adversity we face. That’s how I’m mentally wired. Even in the darkest moments, I’ll find the light. I’ve always been an eternal optimist and that belief in what’s possible has carried me through every chapter and still drives me now. Where we were in 2022 compared to now is night and day. We’re in the strongest position we’ve ever been creatively, strategically, and as a brand, but the real momentum is only just beginning. The people building Chimpers with me share that same hunger and drive. It’s not just a set of values. It’s who we are. It’s rooted in our family. We will not be overlooked. We will win together. Most importantly, Chimpers is going to become one of the many important Web3 IPs breaking into the mainstream. This might all sound like a lot and I dont often write such long posts, but we’ve always been the underdog. And if you’re wondering how we’re still growing, this should tell you why.

if you lose 50% on a coin, and then you gain 50% on that same coin, you’ve broken even

Chimpers in Numbers 1⃣2⃣3⃣ !CHIMP 🐵 The Chimpers (5,555) collection launched May 20, 2022 (15.5 months, 476 days) ago, and what a whirlwind it's been! So much achieved, yet anyone who has founded a business will know we are still very young and have a long way to go to reach our potential. A reminder of where we are, and what we've achieved, and where we are going. - Launched a marketplace - Launched a Dojo staking experience - 2,365 Owners (43%), Staked 1,702 (72%) - 4,614 Chimpers Staked (83%) - Developed 8 Arcade games - Developed an Adventure game and run 5 games with over 6,000 free rewards (artworks, physical & digital collectibles and merchandise) - Written the Ancient Chronicles 12,000-word book - 600 people connecting on Little Atlas platform and 100's of IRL meet ups around the world - Supported scores of artists through the art foundation and the art gallery - Grown 383K Followers Instagram, 381K Followers TikTok in 6 months - Incorporated as a business, trademarks etc. - and much more... So far, we've focussed exclusively on adding value to holders by providing experiences, and having fun, and we've had a blast! Since launch, the team has been present or twitter and discord every single day, because we love being a part of the community. Until the recent toy launch we hadn't sold anything since mint. As we know the landscape has changed dramatically since then with zero royalties and a severe lack of momentum in the space, this has only accelerated our drive to become a sustainable business. In the coming week's we'll be announcing 2 strategic partnerships that show our intent. One of which is very much web3, long term, and super cool, and the other is to support Chimpers brand growth an IP monetization in the real world. We are excited for the next steps of Chimpers and one thing you can count on, wherever we go and whatever we do you'll always be our #1. 💯

This recap by @NFTNate_ is just a snapshot in time of all the hard work the @ChimpersNFT team has put in. In a two-minute video we get info on the 6th (🤯) online adventure game, giveaways (digital and physical) featuring top artists and brands, the chapter 6 NFT that will complete the adventure, the mysterious gems, the upcoming ebook and audiobook, a limited edition vinyl toy (now available), a community spotlight on an F1 car, global meetups with city-specific merch, and more! This stuff isn’t some long-term roadmap… it isn’t a hope and a dream for utility. It’s a string of products that have been incrementally built and delivered over time. It’s continual engagement with the community across multiple mediums. It’s !CHIMP

Introducing the first premium Chimpers figurine in collaboration with @toylaxy_studio! The 3 epic collectibles bring to life the youthful adventures of sensei Master Chimpo! Open to holders & public, the pre-order starts tomorrow at 6pm BST / 1pm EST.

gm Markets all time low 📉 Likes rock bottom 🌧️ Reposts sparse 🥶 Comments desolate 💤 Yet my belief in us has never been stronger! 🤩 Is there a name for this strange phenomenon⁉️

We’re playing a very, very long game. We’re a well funded company with serious ambitions and the team community to get it done. Is it a tough time to launch a PFP? Sure. But we’ll be better for it. If you can make it in summer 2023, you can make it anywhere. Azurbala strong.

Our full set...so far

I'm taking offers on the #8 rarity Azurian (according to Blur). I know that he's got a story to tell, but I don't think I'm the person to tell it. I wanna find him a good home. #4244
