What Is ApeCoin (APE)?

ApeCoin (APE) is an ERC-20 utility and governance token of the APE ecosystem. It empowers the decentralized APE community building at the forefront of Web 3.0.

APE is governed by the ApeCoin DAO and supported by the APE Foundation. With APE, token holders can vote on governance proposals on the DAO and access exclusive features of the APE ecosystem, such as games, events, and services.

Yuga Labs, the creator of the popular Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) NFT collections, has also adopted APE as the primary token for all new products and services.

How does APE work?

APE was founded to be used within the growing APE ecosystem. It is governed by the ApeCoin DAO and supported by the APE Foundation.

ApeCoin DAO is a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) for all APE token holders to participate in governance decisions. They can decide how to allocate the Ecosystem Fund, make governance rules, select projects, partnerships, etc. After the DAO members vote on the proposals, the APE Foundation will proceed to carry out the community-led governance decisions. 

The APE Foundation is the legal steward of the DAO. It facilitates the growth and development of the APE ecosystem in a fair and inclusive way. At the Foundation, there is a special council called the Board. It is tasked with ensuring that the community's visions are implemented. The Board consists of 5 members from the tech and crypto community, including Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. As a decentralized Board, the initial Board members will serve for 6 months before APE holders vote for new Board members on an annual basis.
