sorry, i am not a fan of apecoin, mostly because i think it hurts the NFT space to bring in tokens, as token communities are generally hyper toxic and desperate

as tokens do the hype and crash thing like every token does, often people start to get pretty obnoxious about it all

@tedtalksmacro, a cryptocurrency analyst, analyzed the unlock schedule of ApeCoin. The total supply of ApeCoin is capped at 1 billion tokens. 28% of the token's supply is currently circulating across exchanges, and the remainder would be released consistently, increasing downward pressure on the NFT token.
Based on the unlock schedule, the analyst argues $56 million worth of ApeCoins would be unlocked every month, increasing the selling pressure on the circulating supply on Binance, Coinbase and other cryptocurrency exchanges. This could influence ApeCoin price negatively.
