I ran into this project a few weeks ago. I not heard any talk about it and still haven't really. I was able to get some good apes ranking wise and could have had more. I liked them and thought they could do good and the ape war battles seemed like a cool idea. I have since got rid of a few and it is another success for me. There is 2716 unique users so far and it has increased the past few days. About a week ago it had a nice climb up all rankings on rarity.tools and opensea. The past few days has not rose it up as much but has brought in more users. Now on discord you can fight other apes. Your ape will have a list of of attributes you can look at and then train your apes to fight one on one with any other ape. I have not got too far into learning all about this yet. I just wanted to try and get it out there a little more.
