The chances are, you already heard about the Exiled Apes, but if not, this is the tldr; to get you acquainted.
Exiled Apes are the 518 NFTs that were created during the unsuccessful mint of @DegenApeAcademy on August 13, 2021. Those that were "lucky" got through the entire minting process with 1 of 3 results:
Exiled Apes are now listed on open marketplaces and the growing community is creating its own value and partnerships, while simultaneously working on fixing the collection.
Since we came to this world kinda wonky, with broken meta and broken images, we needed to find a way to remedy this. The easy option would be simple burn and remint, but, the value of being the first ones of the DAA mint is valued to some, so we had to come up with an alternative.
Luckily for us, @redacted_j is the man with the plan. He came to our roundtable call and proposed the idea that would suit us nicely.
The entangler is a new smart contract that ties / entangles the original Exiled token with a newly created one. The new token has all new art and all new fixed metadata.
Holders have the option to create a link between their existing ape and the new art for a small fee. These tokens are from that point linked together through the entangler. The current owner or any future owner of either token has the option to exchange these back and forth for free. Only one token of the pair can exist outside of the entangler at any given time.
Initial swap is 1 SOL all swaps after that will be free. You can swap back and forth as many times as you'd like as long as you own the token. There will be two transactions you have to approve.
