ApeChain is a blockchain network launched in October 2024, positioned as "the home of NFTs" with the slogan "NFTs Are Forever." Built as a Layer 2 solution on Arbitrum One by Horizen Labs, it features gasless transactions, easy onboarding, and user-first design. The network uses $APE as its native token with over 92% of supply circulating and maintains $11M+ in TVL. ApeChain offers cross-chain integrations with Ethereum, Solana, and HyperEVM, supporting permissionless dApp launches with low fees. The ecosystem encompasses NFTs, DeFi protocols, gaming, and yield farming, with governance transitioning from ApeDAO to ApeCo. Notable projects include NFTotem, ApeChain RILLAZ, ApeBeats, and various NFT collections. The platform integrates with major protocols like OpenSea, HyperLiquid, and HybraFinance, while fostering community engagement through initiatives like ApeChain HUB, Bantr.fun leaderboard integration, and educational programs like VibeCoding Bootcamp.
