About $APE and the ApeCoinDAO

APECOIN IS FOR THE WEB3 ECONOMY.

Culture has found new expression in web3 through art, gaming, entertainment, and events. The possibilities for blockchain’s impact on culture are so endless that they can’t possibly all be predicted yet. $APE is a token made to support what’s next, controlled and built on by the community. It will serve as a decentralized protocol layer for community-led initiatives that drive culture forward into the metaverse.

THE APE FOUNDATION

The APE Foundation is the steward of ApeCoin. It is not an overseer, but the base layer on which ApeCoin holders in the ApeCoin DAO can build.

The Foundation facilitates decentralized and community-led governance and is designed to become more decentralized over time. It is tasked with administering the decisions of the ApeCoin DAO, and is responsible for day-to-day administration, bookkeeping, project management, and other tasks that ensure the DAO community’s ideas have the support they need to become a reality.

The goal of the APE Foundation is to steward the growth and development of the APE ecosystem in a fair and inclusive way. It utilizes the Ecosystem Fund, which is controlled by a multisig wallet, to pay its expenses as directed by the ApeCoin DAO and provides an infrastructure for ApeCoin holders to collaborate through open and permissionless governance processes.

THE DAO

ApeCoin DAO exists because decentralized governance is critical to building and managing a globally dispersed community—and therefore critical to the success of the APE ecosystem.

The APE Improvement Proposal Process (see governance) will allow ApeCoin DAO members to make decisions regarding Ecosystem Fund allocations, governance rules, projects, partnerships, and beyond. ApeCoin DAO membership is open to all ApeCoin holders.

LRCC & $APE

Our LRCC project will actively be holding, utilising and (in future, as part of our project goals) participation the ApeCoin ecosystem. This provides key benefits for the future expansion into the realm of Digital Collectibles.

We will actively expand our ability to exchange value between our customers, Limited Run and our Consignors Club in a more decentralised manner. In addition, $APE is usable in various projects our consignors club has been actively participating in like 10KTF (which has since been acquired by Yuga Labs, the company behind the Bored Ape Yacht Club and a key member of the ApeCoinDAO). Since the release of the token, it has been utilised by various notable brands and platforms including:
