LinksDAO to Launch Community Token for Golf Enthusiasts on Base

LinksDAO is launching a community token, LINKS, alongside its 10,000 membership NFTs aimed at purchasing golf courses. The NFT market has declined significantly since LinksDAO raised $10 million in early 2022.

Key points:

  • LINKS will be launched on the Base blockchain in the coming months.
  • One-third of the token supply is allocated for LinksDAO NFT holders.
  • Other allocations include members from Pudgy Penguins and Bored Ape Yacht Club.
  • LinksDAO emphasizes that LINKS is not speculative or an investment but a community "enhancer."
  • The goal is widespread adoption among golfers.
  • LinksDAO recently acquired a golf club in Scotland and is pursuing partial ownership of Hillcrest Golf Course in Kansas City.
  • Hillcrest Golf Course, designed by Donald Ross in 1915, is undergoing a $30 million renovation.
  • LinksDAO will gain a board seat but decisions require approval from NFT-holding members.

Approximately 200 members participated in the announcement event, indicating LinksDAO functions more as a crypto and golf affinity club than a decentralized organization.
