Metaverse is a hot topic right now. In contrast to blockchains and cryptocurrencies, it requires no in-depth technical knowledge, so people understand it more easily. Gamification and play-to-earn aspects make it appealing to a wider audience including gamers, NFT art collectors and traders alike.

Apish Punks is a newly launched, up and coming NFT collection styled around a limited 10,000 pixelated Apes, with proof of ownership stored on the Telos blockchain they have varied rarities, based on 4 kinds of Ape Punks – Friendly, Zombie, Alien and Ghost Ape Punk from totally common friendly Apes to Ghost versions available on a 1/687 ratio. The style choice once shared to the community by the Dev comes from a surprise that no one is utilising the low gas fees and high speed transactions of Telos whilst realising that all of the Ape-related NFTs are most common yet none are truly pixelated with rarities and a use-case so Apish Punks was born.
For the ones who may not know, Telos is a 3rd Generation blockchain platform which allows for building fast, scalable distributed applications with extremely low gas fees, another great attribute to the the Telos Network is the fact it is 24x faster than the Ethereum network with a 0.5 second block time, if we look at it holistically it is not only faster than Ethereum but all other chains including Solana and Tron in the DeFi Space.
Rarities are a key element to any NFT collection and the Apish Punks do not let you down. Their team has developed a rarity table of key elements with a full rarity list being compiled for everyone to view online where their Apish Punk sits within rarity including which key elements to look out for.
The price to mint an Apish Punk initially was 10 Telos and at the time of writing this it has already raised to 15 Telos, however a floor is already setting on the marketplace of 25 Telos, therefore the Development team are closely managing the price to reflect and support the floor, my recommendation is to scoop up as many now, the reason, well within 12 hours of stealth launch they already have over 10% of the supply minted with no marketing, no push just a simple community giveaway for shilling the project. No passengers here ladies, gentleman and pronouns – so jump in quick before the supply Is gone.
What’s next for Apish Punks? The development team is rather secretive over this so far – from what can be gathered from their website and telegram channel the Apish Punks are going to enable whitelist spots on pre-order of their Apish Token and early access and use case within a Metaverse – Characters with different attributes? Who knows, for now it’s a solid “yes” from Eric Brown (@Eric_Crypt0 – Telegram). With his main reason being early entry to a token ran by a team who have wind in their sails and a clear understanding of taking opportunity where no one else has yet, a Metaverse being developed already with use case for the NFT’s and a limited supply, not to mention the first on the Telos EVM Network. And, he continues:

At the time of writing, lots of Apish Punks have already been minted:
