About SASC

The idea

The Shameless Ape Social Club is a PFP NFT collection and an exclusive, chaotic, members-only club with no fixed address. On any given night it is somewhere different: a VIP room, a rooftop, a penthouse, a server room nobody rents, a casino floor at 4 a.m., or a street corner as the sun comes up. Its members are wildly different personalities who share exactly one trait — no shame.

What SASC is actually making fun of is status signalling. The Club parodies velvet-rope exclusivity by filling it with members who are loud, broke-rich, sleep-deprived, over-leveraged and completely unrepentant. The tone is satirical, not hateful: it mocks excess and itself, never protected groups and never real private individuals.

The Club runs on The Tab, a ledger nobody has ever settled. Membership is for life, largely because the Club cannot find the paperwork to remove anyone.

An original collection, on purpose

SASC is built from its own anatomy rather than from a resemblance to something that already sold. The base character carries features that exist only here: a V-notch cut into the left ear and a heavy asymmetric shelf brow, with one eye set slightly higher than the other. Those two features are also the logo — the Notch Badge is that face peering out of a membership badge.

The project keeps an originality checklist covering anatomy, visual motifs, names, logos and asset provenance. Every production asset must pass it. The Club has its own face, its own rules and enough bad decisions to stand on its own.

How the collection is built

333 Shameless Apes in total. 15 of them are The Unforgivables: one-of-one characters included in the selected vector run. The rest are assembled by a deterministic, seeded generator from an original trait system — layered families of fur, clothing, headwear, eyewear, accessories and effects, plus a Personality trait that is treated as the character rather than as decoration.

The generator is not a random stacker. Category weights, incompatibility rules, family sets and an expression-harmony check all run before a token is accepted, and duplicate DNA is rejected outright, so every Shameless Ape is distinct and reads as a person rather than a pile of layers.

How rarity works

The 318 generated pieces are scored from realized trait frequencies, then ranked into tiers. In this candidate run those tiers range from common to legendary. The 15 Unforgivables are outside that scoring model: their scores are null and they carry a special mythic designation. The rarity report records trait counts, generated-piece scores, tiers and family-set membership.

The one-of-ones sit outside the scoring model. They have no score because a score computed against trait frequency is meaningless for an artwork that has no traits.

Current status

The 333-piece vector collection is selected, accepted by the owner and bound to the committed provenance. Base Sepolia test mints and VRF reveal are complete; metadata freeze is pending. The SASC contract is deployed on Base, owned by the Safe and source-verified; the public sale opened on October 18, 2026. No external audit, counsel review or brand clearance has been completed, and storage and custody controls are unverified; the owner decided the sale could open without them. Full development status
