Most people today know @TimpersHD as the artist and creator behind @ChimpersHQ
But his story runs much deeper as an artist.
From designing for some of the biggest names on YouTube to becoming one of the early artists of the NFT era.
Here’s his story 🧵👇

What does every NFT project end up doing?
Launch a coin, airdrop it to holders, and watch it go straight to zero with no utility. So many projects have done this, and we sit here asking the question again and again, what was the point?
@ChimpersHQ did it and are doing it differently. First, no airdrop. It's a strategy token... meaning the token is DIRECTLY tied to the NFTs.
They are one of the only projects to adopt their strategy token as an ecosystem token. You can customize your Chimpanion with ethereum:0x3ca20831ebea5c99aa6e574d83f0a7c733f7e4d0 and you could buy custom art/gifs of your Chimp with CHIMPSTR all while BURNING the token.
The token being directly tied to the NFTs makes it seem less like it's a separate token and more like the token IS the NFT in a sense.
AND the team invests heavily with royalties and revenue going into the token and NFTs... some of which are given away to holders.
Web3 alignment, Web2 foundation being built, Web3 and Web2 partnerships. A BIG brand is being built right in front of our eyes, I hope you're not sidelining yourself.
Over the past year, the Chimpers team has acquired over 72 million ethereum:0x3ca20831ebea5c99aa6e574d83f0a7c733f7e4d0 (over $100K in value) to support our ecosystem.
Today our treasury holds over 50 million ethereum:0x3ca20831ebea5c99aa6e574d83f0a7c733f7e4d0, with more than 20 million already deployed through collector rewards, incentives, and ecosystem initiatives.
As the officially adopted ecosystem token for Chimpers, we believed the best way to demonstrate genuine alignment was through a fair launch, purchasing our share just like everyone else.
No team allocation.
While this means distribution has been slower, it’s helped establish an organic holder base, with ethereum:0x3ca20831ebea5c99aa6e574d83f0a7c733f7e4d0 designed to support our NFT ecosystem for the long term.
We’re still early in that mission, but we’ve already introduced several important upgrades and will continue expanding its utility as the primary currency powering our ecosystem.
There’s plenty of work ahead, but our commitment hasn’t changed.
As Chimpers grows, we want ethereum:0x3ca20831ebea5c99aa6e574d83f0a7c733f7e4d0 to grow alongside it 🐒

Remember when @TimpersHD made the Diamond Fleece card set back in 2024, based on The Boring Ape Chronicles?
Maybe one day we'll see some of Timpers pixels in Mudwater. Would be fun!
He is that guy.
