We recently hosted an AMA with Banana Task Force, on July 20th at 12 PM UTC. Many of you might have participated or many of not. But we make sure no one missed out from the knowledge shared by T Hobb, Talent Acquisition Lead by Banana Task Force. So here we are up with the AMA transcript, for those who missed the live session, this blog post will be a saver & feeder of knowledge for them.

Introduction Questions Asked By Team BlockTalks!

Q1. Could you please introduce Banana Task Force Ape to our community in layman’s terms?

Ans — We are a collection of 10k NFT’s with 150 unique traits. Our collection sold out in 2 weeks during the most bearish time of the market. We also have our native token BTFA and or Governance token Bandex in our ecosystem which is governed by our LLC Blip Studios.

Q2. What are the advantages of Banana Task Force Ape to the other alternatives in the Blockchain field?

Ans — BTFA provides a deflationary ecosystem through buys and sales of our Governance token Bandex which burns BTFA, gives reflections, supplies liquidity, marketing, and also helps to provide funds to sweep the floor weekly of our NFT’s and thereby burning them making them deflationary as well

Additionally our NFT’s have multiple utilities that I will cover throughout this AMA as well.

Q3. What are the major milestones Banana Task Force Ape achieved so far & what are in the future pipeline?

Ans — 1. Developed an entire ecosystem 7 months prior to launch.

2. Sold out our presale of our native token in a record of 5seconds.

3. Sold out our 2nd presale in 15 seconds

4. Sold out our NFT collection in 2 weeks during a bear market including selling 2K NFT’s in 1hr.

We plan to bring Blip Studios our LLC to mainstream retail by providing a modern day art studio and issuing 20% of the revenue share to all NFT holders. Creating passive income for those holders

Questions Asked on Twitter for Banana Task Force Team!!

Q1. You comment that what makes BTFA special is that NFT holders have exclusive access to Blip Studios events and passive earnings. How much could an average user earn for each Banana Task Force Ape NFT he owns? What does the level of earnings depend on?

Ans —I would be lying if I told you the exact amount of revenue and I don’t like to guess. What I will say however is that we intend to run Blip Studios and the Art Studio with the same competitive fire we have give the defi space so far. If you have confidence in what we have done so far then we will be sure to continue on that pace to maximize the passive income our holders will enjoy

The level of earnings depends on the growth of our art studio and we plan to franchise them in multiple major cities.

Q2. Something interesting what I read about BTFA is that native token holders get special access to the Discord server. But, can you explain me what has to be done after a user buys these native tokens? Where does one have to contact to get into this exclusive server?

Ans — Actually the exclusive server access will be tied to the particular NFT’s you hold. We will have special groups within our discord called trait groups that will act together to increase the floor in that trait group which will in turn increase the floor of the entire NFT collection making your asset worth more

Q3. You point out that native token holders get special access to your Discord server. But, if I am not a token holder and I require advice for a purchase or a problem related to the use of the platform, where can I ask for assistance?

Ans — There will still be a general chat in our discord for holders and non holders as long as you can pass a basic security check set up by our discord moderators

The idea is to limit the amount of spam received via TG.

Q4. How will the BANANATFA team maintain the perfect balance of NFT production and demand in order to keep their market and asset values from plummeting? How will you ensure that the incentive for players remains stable and appealing in order to encourage widespread adoption?

Ans —That’s where the deflationary NFT argument becomes extremely relevant. As we purchase our NFT supply weekly and burn the NFT’s it will lower the supply and increase the demand which in basic economic terminology naturally increases the floor price

That is why the Bandex token is so important to our ecosystem as it provides the liquidity to sweep the floor weekly.

Q5. Vast majority of projects who adopt dual token model end up falling because they find it extremely difficult to maintain and sustain these tokens on the long run. Can you tell us your own reason for adopting a dual token system? If I’m right, $BTFA and $BANDEX are the names for these two tokens, could you tell us how they differ from each other and What roles does each of them play?

Ans — The Bandex token is our Governance token it provides access to our Governance DAO which allows for our holders and community members to make proposals and vote on them to create the change in our ecosystem that they believe can help us grow. We have confidence that the two tokens will be adopted on a mass scale as more and more holders understand the value of them individually and as a tandem

Ans — The goal is to provide a meet up helping to build community comradely we are in talks now of securing a venue in Chicago and details will be released as they are solidified

Q11. I noticed that BTFA only works on the Ethereum Network at the moment, considering today’s gas fees and system slowness, why did you choose the ETH network? Do you plan to add different networks as your project develops and grows?

Ans — Although gas fees are high in Eth it still is the leader in volume so it was an easy choice. We have plans for moving to other blockchains as the volume increases on those chains and it makes since for the ecosystem.
