What is Gaming Ape Club?

Gaming Ape Club is a 3D NFT collection of 6,500 gaming apes. GAC’s mission is to strengthen the bridge between traditional gaming and NFTs by providing tangible value and benefits for holders, as well as integration with metaverse and P2E communities.

The GAC team is fully doxxed and is experienced in gaming and business, including managing esports organizations such as Optimal Ambition and OvertimeGG. All founders operate partnered Twitch gaming channels.

What Is Gaming-To-Earn?

GAC XP

GAC community members can earn GAC XP; an off-chain token. Users can increase their GAC XP through actively gaming, participating, and holding. Before mint, we will announce our first game-to-earn integration. Users will verify ownership of their Gaming Ape Club NFT, allowing holders to earn GAC XP.

GAC Shack

This marketplace provides holders with tangible utility and benefits. Holders have exclusive access to the GAC Shack, where GAC XP can be exchanged for whitelist opportunities, gaming products, NFTs, and giveaways.

10% of mint will be dedicated to providing holders with gaming-to-earn opportunities, internal and external whitelist opportunities, products, and giveaways.

How Is GAC Giving Back?

In coordination with the Coalition of Parents in Esports (COPE), GAC will contribute $65,000 towards esports and Web3 scholarships and grants. Holders will be actively involved in the process.

Spotlight of the Week:

The GAC community will participate in selecting a holder to be the Spotlight of the Week.

Gamer of the Month:

The GAC community will participate in selecting a holder to be the Gamer of the Month.

Prizes will include gaming-related products associated with GAC partners.

How Will Our Genesis Mint Work?

The mint price of a single GAC NFT is .08 Ethereum.

The GAC genesis supply has been reduced from 10,000 to 6,500 NFTs. Those who mint and hold their GAC NFT will be part of the Diamond District Program 24 hours after mint.

At the end of this article, you can find more details on how the Diamond District Program and Discord roles work.

Auction:

The Legendary Gold GAC 1/1 Auction begins at 10AM EST on March 23rd, 2022.

  • For 24 hours, the auction will be live for anyone to bid. Once the auction ends, the highest bidder will receive their GAC NFT and a gaming PC valued at ≈$3,000 from PowerGPU.
  • All proceeds from the auction will go to Gamers Outreach, a for-purpose organization helping to restore a sense of joy and normalcy in the lives of hospitalized children.

Whitelist:

Whitelist sale begins at 11AM EST on March 24th, 2022.

  • Phase 1: During this phase, whitelisted members will have 2 hours to mint one GAC NFT. There is a total supply of 6,000 NFTs during the whitelist phases.
  • Phase 2: This phase begins upon the conclusion of Phase 1, at 1PM EST. Whitelisted members will have 2 hours to mint an additional GAC NFT. If you missed out during Phase 1, you will still be able to mint a single GAC NFT during Phase 2, but there is no guarantee supply will last.

Whitelist sale will end after both phases have concluded, or a complete sellout of the 6,000 NFTs available during the whitelist phases.

Public:

Public sale begins at 3:00PM EST on March 24th, 2022.

  • There are 500 GAC NFTs available during the public sale. The public sale period will end once all NFTs have been sold.
  • You may mint a total of one GAC NFT per wallet during the public sale. Whitelisted and non-whitelisted members can both mint during the public sale.

Can Holders Be Rewarded Beyond Gaming-To-Earn?

Yes! Those who may not want to participate in the game-to-earn opportunities will be rewarded for simply holding their GAC. Holders can expect to receive progressively stronger rewards and benefits based upon the length of time holding.

10% of mint is dedicated to providing GAC diamond hand-holders NFTs from emerging and/or established projects. Please read the article below on how you can be eligible for these rewards.

What Will The GAC Launchpad Offer?

GAC will assist in the development of emerging NFT projects that align with our passion for gaming and NFTs. In return, holders will benefit from these partnerships with additional whitelist opportunities and increased capital for future GAC investments such as P2E integrations.

How Will GAC Implement P2E Collaborations?

Holders will be permitted entry to decentralized partnered P2E communities. GAC has invested funds into the creation of our first P2E game which will be announced prior to mint.

We will be hosting tournaments across various games, providing monetary rewards and prizes.

Note: Tournaments will be exclusive to holders only.
