Over $30 Million Worth of APE Token Pours Into ApeCoin Staking in First Day

One day after the Ape Foundation opened staking for its APE currency, over $30 million worth of the token has been deposited into its contract.

The token is the native currency of the Yuga Labs ecosystem, airdropped to holders of the Web3 collective’s mainstay non-fungible token (NFT) collections, Bored Ape Yacht Club and Mutant Ape Yacht Club, back in March.

The price of the token itself hasn’t changed much in the weeks leading up to the staking – at the time of writing, APE is trading for around $4.20, the same price as two weeks ago. At its peak in the days before Yuga Labs’ Otherside metaverse land sale last April, APE was trading for over $22.

  • Trump team files complaint over Harris inheriting $96 million in Biden campaign funds

    According to reports from foreign media, the Trump campaign team has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission, claiming that Biden's transfer of $96 million in campaign funds to Harris is illegal. David Warrington, a lawyer for the Trump campaign team, said that this was a "shameless money-grabbing act" and would constitute the largest excessive donation and most serious violation in the history of the Federal Election Law. Shortly after Biden withdrew from the election and appointed Harris as his preferred successor, she took over Biden's campaign committee's bank account. Steve Roberts, a lawyer who represented Republican candidates, said that the argument against the transfer was a "wishful thinking" of his Republican colleagues. The Harris campaign team said that this complaint would not affect its fundraising or spending.

    Despite hopes from industry participants, the topic of crypto was not discussed during the first general debate of the 2024 U.S. presidential election between Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
