A lot of you were questioning: what happened to Chikara Chimps?<br />

Before answering that question, it would be best if you know who we are first.<br />

What is Chikara Chimps,<br />

Who are the people building our community,<br />

Why we fought, won, and chose to stay in the space.<br />

A week ago, I contacted Sydney — the new project owner of<br />

Chikara Chimps. Asked the genius man if he had little time to spare<br />

to write an article explaining what happened to Chikara and what<br />

he plans for the future of the Chimps. This article below, is written<br />

by our very own (new) project owner — Sydney Crypto Boy —<br />

explaining his journey with us Chimps, from day 1 after mint to this<br />

day.<br />

What is Chikara Chimps:<br />

Chikara Chimps is a 888 supply NFT Project within the Solana Eco System — It was released as a<br />

community-orientated project and there was huge hype around the launch.<br />

Where did my interaction start with Chikara Chimps:<br />

Chikara Chimps was released at a similar time as a HIGHLY successful project ‘Chimpions’ and Low-<br />

Supply Meta was thriving at the time. They had exclusive Discord, so my interactions with the Chimps<br />

started with a message in Chikara’s Twitter for some WL spots for my exclusive Discord and ever since<br />

I was hooked.<br />

Minting/Tokens:<br />

Unfortunately for me, they had ignored my endless requests. It was<br />

proven hard to gain access to their discord and this was quickly<br />

becoming one of the most hyped mints on Solana.<br />

The buildup was insane pre-mint and their WL token was selling<br />

for 15◎ ++(Which at the time was higher than ANYTHING I’d seen<br />

before) — Their hype was real — I actually acquired a token for 3◎<br />

and choose to mint.<br />

Secondary entrance:<br />

With those who minted for 1◎ happy to make a 3X quickly, this had<br />

caused major FUD as those paying excessive amounts for tokens<br />

where naturally disappointed so straight away it was a battle.<br />

It was the community who fought bravely against the FUD and they won.<br />

We won.<br />
