ApeCoin Price Skyrockets After Apechain Launch, Then Pulls Back
ApeCoin (APE), a token linked to the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) NFT collection, surged 135% to $1.74 on Monday following the launch of Apechain, a new blockchain in its ecosystem.
Created by Yuga Labs, Apechain supports ApeCoin staking and broadens BAYC’s reach.
A pseudonymous analyst highlighted Apechain’s unique features: scalability to reduce congestion, rewards and incentives like token staking and airdrops, and full integration with APE.
Before the launch, BAYC co-founder Wylie Aronow expressed his vision for ApeChain as a creator-focused platform beyond just BAYC.
