# History

Arcas began **24/06/2021** as Block Ape Scissors.

The Block Ape Scissors token was launched alongside it on Binance Smart Chain representing the our Gaming Studio. 

The token can be found here:\

[**OLD BAS Token**](https://bscscan.com/token/0x8ddeec6b677c7c552c9f3563b99e4ff90b862ebc)

The project was later [incubated](https://www.binance.com/en/blog/ecosystem/binance-labs-launches-season-3-of-incubation-program-421499824684903042) and backed by [Binance Labs](https://labs.binance.com) late Q4 2021.\

On **30/09/2023** the Block Ape Scissors token was deprecated.

All liquidity was migrated to our new token called **ARCAS** and all token holders above 100 tokens (1.8usd at the time) were airdropped the same amount of ARCAS.

On the **24/06/2024** we retired the Block Ape Scissors brand and rebranded the Gaming Studio to Galea Games and our ecosystem to Arcas Games.
