About

Slurp Juice is an NFT collection related to the Astro Ape NFT collection that allows owners to mint new Astro Ape NFTs. Their existence became widely known on Twitter after user @rarecandyio exasperatedly attempted to explain what they were to their followers, writing, "A lotta yall still dont get it. Ape holders can use multiple slurp juices on a single ape. So if you have 1 astro ape and 3 slurp juices you can create 3 new apes." The tweet was parodied on Twitter by users who found the name "slurp juices" ridiculous, transforming it into a copypasta in early May 2022.

Origin

Slurp Juices are a collection of NFT items related to the Astro Ape series of NFTs hosted on Rarecandy.io.[1] They are supplementary items to Astro Apes and when a person combines a "slurp juice" with an "Astro Ape," they are able to mint a new Astro Ape. On May 3rd, 2022, the Rare Candy IO Twitter account[2] attempted to explain the concept to its followers ahead of a minting event for Slurp Juices, writing, "a lotta yall still dont get it. ape holders can use multiple slurp juices on a single ape. so if you have 1 astro ape and 3 slurp juices you can create 3 new apes. Tonight's slurp juice mint event is essentially a minting event for both Lab Monkes and Special Forces." The tweet gained over 210 retweets, 400 quote tweets and 280 likes in less than 24 hours (shown below).

On May 6th, Input Magazine published a piece about how RareCandy.io may be involved with what are described as "racist edgelord trolls," though the person behind RareCandy.io denies this.[8]
