ApeChain Launches Developer Hub Platform

**Otherside** has released two major updates for creators and players: - **OS Vibe Builder** is now live, giving creators new tools to build within the Otherside metaverse - **Blackbeard's Bounty Season 2** introduces **Create-A-Hunt mode**, allowing players to design and submit their own treasure hunts from March 4-15 Unlike Season 1, there are no public ranked leaderboards this season. Player-submitted hunts will be approved within 24 hours and appear throughout the season. Stats remain visible to track participation across different hunts.

**Blackbeard's Bounty** returns to Otherside with a new player-driven feature. **How it works:** - Players select a Hunt and follow clues to mint KodaCam photos - Season 2 introduces **Create-a-Hunt** mode - Each player can design one custom Hunt for the community - Hunts can be pledged to specific NFT communities, or left open for any Hunter to claim The feature launched March 4-15, alongside the new OS Vibe Builder tool for creators. Players can now shape the treasure hunt experience for others in the metaverse.

**ApeCoin introduces major tokenomics change** with all $APE used for ApeChain gas fees now being **permanently burned**. Key details: - Burns include **all fees since ApeChain's launch** - Token burns will **accelerate as Otherside grows** - Part of ApeCoin's focus on creating a sustainable **economic loop** This deflationary mechanism could reduce $APE supply over time as network usage increases. The move represents a significant shift in ApeCoin's monetary policy, potentially impacting token value through supply reduction. *Monitor ApeChain activity to track burn rates.*

**Otherside expands its ecosystem** by welcoming three established NFT communities to ApeChain this week. The new additions include: - **0n1Force** - established digital collectibles community - **Quirkies NFT** - proven cultural contributors - **Good Vibes Club** - long-standing community builders These communities have **demonstrated their cultural impact** through years of consistent building and engagement in the web3 space. The integration represents Otherside's continued strategy to **onboard crypto-native intellectual property** and established communities to its metaverse platform. **ApeChain serves as the foundation** for these community migrations, providing the infrastructure for established web3 brands to expand their presence in the metaverse ecosystem.
