ApeCoin (APE), a token linked to the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) NFT collection, surged 135% to $1.74 on Monday following the launch of Apechain, a new blockchain in its ecosystem.

Created by Yuga Labs, Apechain supports ApeCoin staking and broadens BAYC’s reach.

A pseudonymous analyst highlighted Apechain’s unique features: scalability to reduce congestion, rewards and incentives like token staking and airdrops, and full integration with APE.

Before the launch, BAYC co-founder Wylie Aronow expressed his vision for ApeChain as a creator-focused platform beyond just BAYC.

Since Monday’s peak, ApeCoin has fallen to $1.23, a 16.4% drop over 24 hours.
