$APE
As a governance and utility token, ApeCoin has multiple purposes in the APE ecosystem. ApeCoin allows token holders to participate in the governance of the DAO and gain access to exclusive features of the ecosystem, such as games, events, merchandise, and services.
Web3
ApeCoin is designed like any other Web3 currency and can be used for payments. Technically, most merchants accept it since it is a ubiquitous ERC-20 (Ethereum) token. The currency is also used as an NFT reward, and members of the Bored Ape Yacht Club receive APE for free that they can redeem immediately.
'Play-to-earn' Games
External developers use ApeCoin to play a role in the ecosystem and integrate it into their services, games, and various projects. For example, in the mobile play-to-earn (P2E) game by Animoca Brands, Benji Bananas, the currency is used as an incentive for players. They can earn special tokens while playing and exchange them for ApeCoin.
