the bored ape NFT restaurant shut down

the bored ape NFT restaurant shut down
oh hello there.

[mizofps]

cant believe it was even up for that long

[Dingo]

I don't know what's more shocking here. The fact that the restaurant lasted this long, or that it even got going in the first place.

like genuinely imagine if you got doxxed just for buying a burger 💀

Makes it funnier how I got to see this restaurant fail in real time because it's adress is on the bus route I take. I only ever saw one group eating in that place once and every other time I saw it, it was empty, even behind the counter. It looked like it was closed for about a year and a half💀💀

[AnthonyDinh]

can’t believe they didn’t try to make the restaurant name clever like “APEtite” (appetite but ape) or something

To quote Jay Sherman from The Critic…
“And Nothing Of Value Was Lost”

[Ttestiingg]

This existed??? At what point was this even a thing? I have never heard of this restaurant.

[rndmStuff]

I guess everyone was too bored and hungry to eat there.

[Optional-Guy]

This is truly a momentous moment in history

Centralizing the decentralized currency is my favorite saga. 😂

One, this was a thing? And two, only just now!?

The restaurant was built as a Pioneer Chicken in the 70s, became a Popeyes in the 90s, then a Louisiana Fried Chicken in the 00s. Bored & Hungry must have failed because they weren’t a chicken place!

I really hope that more people realize why blockchain is super fucking horrible even for what it's designed to do. Like, the only way it preserves privacy is if you are purchasing online and if all of your purchases are already private. Otherwise, anyone can see the ENTIRE history of every transaction of every wallet. Now link that to a ton of physical businesses. If someone wants to stalk you, they only have to associate a wallet ID with you and they can see all your habits and determine your daily routine easily. That's horrific.

And that's before we get into what corporations would do with free access to the data of all of your purchases ever that they could easily do because you have to link a wallet ID to do a transaction. No privacy. No protections. Just a volatile hellscape of endless finance bro nonsense.

This reminds me
There's a Bored Ape-themed barbershop near the town where I live

Honestly I think most of us can say we didn't know this place existed until it had shut down for us to just look at in bewilderment.

[henrycrystal]

bro i just got scammed i bought a burger for 100- oh their assets dropped to 0 and they filed for bankruptcy

[AutisticNerdBoy]

The most suprising thing is not that it shut down but that it stayed open for so long

[ZayJayPlays]

"In southern California." And you lit the corpse in fire.
