What is ApeChain
- The ApeCoin team, led by Yuga Labs, has launched ApeChain, a new Layer 3 blockchain built on Arbitrum One. This network is fully compatible with the APE token and supports NFT minting, trading, and decentralized DeFi applications, offering an improved user experience. The decision to create ApeChain was made by the ApeChain DAO in a vote held in January.
- ApeChain’s bridges allow users to transfer their tokens to the network and automatically earn staking rewards on APE, ETH, and stablecoins.
- ApeCoin’s new automatic yield feature enables users to passively earn returns by staking their APE tokens, with rewards reinvested automatically to optimize long-term gains. This feature is part of the broader ApeCoin ecosystem, which enhances token utility by encouraging user participation through games, staking pools, and other activities.
