Club members have been building their IP like crazy, but there's no easy way to verify it or find an on-chain directory of everything apes and mutants are creating. "Made by Apes" is coming at the end of the month and is going to solve that 🧵 pic.twitter.com/xcMNXxy2Nc
Harry Liu, the CEO of Forj and an accelerator of Ape Coin, echoed the sentiment, acknowledging the community’s strong desire for a solution to verify and document their IP.
This upcoming tool will undoubtedly be a game-changer for the Bored Ape Yacht Club community, empowering creators and providing them with the recognition they deserve.

A Growing Ecosystem of Innovation
The Bored Ape Yacht Club has also made waves through its collaborations and ventures outside the digital realm. Here are some notable examples:
- KINGSHIP: The club partnered with music label 10:22PM to form KINGSHIP, a metaverse group consisting of four characters from the Bored Ape Yacht Club collection. KINGSHIP aims to explore the intersections of music, NFTs, and community-based experiences, providing exclusive access to Bored Ape and Mutant owners.
- Adidas Originals Collaboration: Bored Ape Yacht Club teamed up with Adidas Originals to launch a collection of 30,000 NFTs titled “Adidas Originals Into the Metaverse”. These NFTs, featuring unique Bored Apes sporting Adidas gear, sold out rapidly and garnered significant value in the market. The collaboration also extended to a physical collection of clothing and accessories inspired by BAYC.
- Real-World Ventures: Bored Ape Yacht Club’s influence transcended the digital space with initiatives like Ape Beverages, a water brand that draws inspiration from BAYC’s branding, and Bored & Hungry, a cryptocurrency-themed fast-food restaurant that accepts digital currencies as payment. These ventures blur the lines between the virtual and physical worlds, showcasing the broader impact of the IP.
Embracing the Future of Digital Art and Ownership Verification
As the launch of “Made By Apes” draws near, anticipation and excitement continue to build within the Bored Ape Yacht Club community.
This groundbreaking tool will not only revolutionise the verification process for IP but also establish an official directory, creating transparency and recognition for the community’s diverse creative endeavours.
With the support of SaaSy Labs, the Bored Ape Yacht Club is poised to take yet another stride forward in revolutionising the world of digital art and ownership verification.
Stay tuned for the official debut of “Made By Apes” later this month, marking a new chapter in the club’s vibrant history.
