How it works

A.P.E: Advanced Protocol for Engagement

Dealflow Board: Trust, Experience, and Alpha Directly from the Source

The Dealflow Board at Ape Wealth is a critical component of the platform, comprising industry leaders and Tier 1 VC's deal pipelines. This ensures that all dealflows are vetted, providing a high level of trust and early deal access for the DAO and its participants. By integrating partners such as CV VC, CV Labs, and CV Pad, along with associations with major companies like Chainlink, AWS, and Solana, Ape Wealth creates a robust and well-integrated ecosystem that supports the entire investment process. This network of partnerships and vetted dealflows underscores the reliability and depth of opportunities available to investors within the Ape Wealth ecosystem.

Protocol Verticals: Creating Real Utiitly and Yield for Users

Ape Wealth introduces several protocol verticals designed to maximize utility and yield for users. The Token Utility vertical allows users to engage in DAO Governance, where they can vote on projects and investment decisions, increasing the transparency and democratic nature of the platform.

Users also benefit from increased odds for whitelist lotteries for APE Promo fund allocations, and greater profit splits when staking the AW token. The longer users stake, the higher their multiple will be.

The Slicer NFT vertical provides fractional fund ownership, symbolizing user ownership in the fund. These slicer NFTs can be traded on secondary markets, allowing users to access profits early, enhancing liquidity and flexibility.

The Validator NFT vertical offers boosted DAO Governance with 1.5x voting power and redistributes 25% of protocol profits to holders, creating a robust incentive for long-term engagement and participation.

All NFTs are tradable, enabling a secondary market for fund allocations and Node APY, further enhancing the liquidity and utility for users.

Advanced Protocol for Engagement: Ape Wealth Fund

Ape Wealth employs a straightforward yet effective participation model with two main fund types. The Quest-to-Earn Fund allows retail Apes, to secure whitelisting to free allocations by completing quests. This engagement model ensures wide accessibility as the Ape Wealth Promo Fund allows participants to earn a share of the fund for free. The Democratized VC Fund empowers users to vote using tokens on which projects to include in the DAO funds. All funds feature VC-vetted investment opportunities and are governed by token holders, ensuring a truly democratized investment process. This dual approach provides a clear separation of product offerings while leveraging proof of concept frameworks for each other.

Circular Tokenomics

Ape Wealth's circular tokenomics model ensures sustainability and continuous engagement. The profit sharing mechanism redistributes user profit splits from the underlying fund to the Protocol Treasury, Validator NFT earnings, the next Ape Wealth Promo, and token buy-back and burn. This system ensures a balanced distribution of profits and reinforces the economic stability of Ape Wealth token economy. Staking is a crucial component, increasing participation and engagement, enhancing profit shares, and locking tokens until maturity, thus ensuring a stable and committed user base.

Treasury Model: Payouts on Profit Share

The treasury model at Ape Wealth facilitates fair and transparent profit distribution. Profit sharing ranges between 60-90%, ensuring that a significant portion of profits is allocated to users. For example, a $1M profit payout and 90% profit share results in the following:

  • $900k profit payout to the investor

  • $100k profit payout to the Ape Wealth Treasury

    • of which 20% (or $20k) is allocated for buy-back and burn to contribute to the circular tokenomics.

    • of which 80% (or $80k) is added to the treasury.

      • 25% of the final treasury allocation is distributed to Validator NFT holders in proportional shares ensuring they benefit directly from the platform's success.
