Wtf is a boerd ape NFT event? I know the bored ape images and I know what an event is... But wtf? Are people supposed to go somewhere to look at those ugly images? People should know they can enjoy this meaningless garbage online. For free.
One of the perks of owning these NFTs was that you could attend exclusive events. What those events were going to be about was anyone's guess. Eye burn, apparently.
It's kind of like when you have Reddit gold and get access to the super exclusive private r/lounge subreddit... That has no actual purpose and nobody bothers posting in it because what are you even supposed to do there?
Basically, it's the same thing as buying a "permanent" ticket to a local sports team's home matches. What? Your local team doesn't sell "permanent" tickets? Exactly.
It’s unfortunate that people were injured but fuck, I’m still scarred just by seeing these awful things. At least if they were going to do a scam art investment scheme they could have made the art not hideous.
So the financial harm wasn't obvious enough for the Bored Apes? The creators wanted to be sure everyone knew it was made to hurt them directly but burning their retinas.
