What is Apecoin (APE)?

ApeCoin is an ERC-20 token built on the Ethereum Blockchain and emerged from the vibrant NFT universe. It was created by a decentralized autonomous organization called ApeCoin DAO and serves as the core token of the Yuga Labs ecosystem. The APE token was distributed via AirDrop in March 2022 to Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC), Mutant Ape Yacht Club (MAYC), and Bored Ape Kennel Club (BAKC) NFT holders, making APE the governance token for the entire Ape ecosystem.

ApeCoin is not just another animal-themed memecoin and has various significant uses. One of its primary functions is governance. APE holders have a say in ApeDAO, the governing body of the Yuga Labs universe, where they can vote on system improvements and the community’s direction. Additionally, APE is used as a metaverse currency within the expanding Yuga Labs economy. It is the preferred currency in Otherside, the metaverse of the Ape ecosystem, facilitating transactions like purchasing virtual land and in-game activities.

Moreover, ApeCoin has real-world applications. It is accepted by luxury brands like Gucci and Tag Heuer, demonstrating its integration into mainstream retail. In the Web3 space, APE is used in various decentralized applications (dApps) and play-to-earn games like Animoca Brands’ Benji Bananas. Owning APE also grants access to exclusive events, AirDrops, and community benefits.

Founded in early 2021, Yuga Labs gained fame with the success of Ethereum-based Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs, a collection of 10,000 unique, hand-drawn apes. These NFTs quickly became status symbols, with prices rising and celebrity endorsements boosting their popularity. Yuga Labs expanded its NFT empire with Mutant Ape Yacht Club and Bored Ape Kennel Club and eventually solidified its dominance in the NFT market by acquiring the CryptoPunks collection from Larva Labs.

Yuga Labs also ventured into virtual real estate with the introduction of Otherside, a digital playground for Ape ecosystem members. Here, APE is used as the primary currency, aiming to host future ApeCoin DAO events and experiences, offering a cohesive digital economy.

ApeCoin DAO is a community-led organization consisting of Yuga Labs and Ape ecosystem supporters. It operates as a separate entity dedicated to growing the Bored Ape NFT world. The DAO manages its treasury and ecosystem fund, supporting developers in creating useful products and services for ApeCoin. APE token holders and DAO members vote on critical decisions through a structured proposal process, shaping the token’s future.

At the heart of ApeCoin DAO is the Ape Foundation, responsible for overseeing and executing the DAO’s decisions. The foundation handles governance, bookkeeping, and project management. A selected council of leading figures in the crypto world, including Reddit Co-Founder Alexis Ohanian and Animoca Brands CEO Yat Siu, guides ApeDAO, ensuring the realization of the Ape ecosystem’s vision.
