In America these days we have become accustomed to the digital scammer, grifter, or hustler who uses the power of technology to get deceive and sometimes — destroy.

Netflix and the like, are filled with these epic stories.

I’m here to tell you a story that 18 months from now will turn into one of those.

Not too many stories touch so many worlds; true-crime, crypto, fine art, the first amendment, and lastly but not least — a great conspiracy theory, cause who doesn’t like that!

In any caper or jux, it’s the things below the surface, behind the scenes, that only come to light, when the proverbial stage play is over.

The Bored Ape Yacht Club is a shining example of the future of the entertainment business that includes a mix of the Metaverse, with the shrewd hucksterism of Andy Warhol.

The story here to tell is a mash-up of all the elements of the political alt-right, mixed with the idea of what is art, clashing with maybe the biggest internet troll of all time!

Fyre Festival, Tinder Swindler, Anna Delvey, the most hated man on the internet, just to name a few all captured the current zeitgeist.

The Bored Ape Yacht Club and it’s layered story is the next wave of hoax programming.
