After the NFT crash a few years ago, ApeCoin was one of the most affected projects and seems to have disappeared from the sights of most cryptocurrency users.
However, the protocol made a huge announcement a few hours ago that fueled an incredible rally for its native token, pushing the price above the coveted $1 level.
$APE || NFT season begins!

Announcement of Apecoin
The team's statement in question highlighted the formal launch of the project Bridge. It works similar to other online crypto bridges, allowing users to connect to their wallets and exchange certain digital assets. At the time of writing these lines, the networks available on the bridge are ApeChain, Ethereum, and Arbitrum.
Once the new protocol features go live, investors will be able to earn native yield on several altcoins, including the native token APE, Ethereum (ETH), and several stablecoins.
The team also promised to launch a core user incentive program that should see the light of day by the end of Sunday.
The bridge is live.
Bring your tokens to ApeChain today and start earning native yield on APE, ETH, and various stablecoins.
Our official bridge can be found on the newly updated ApeChain website, as well as many partners and apps already available on APECHAIN.

APE price hike
The news about the launch of the bridge caused massive hype among the X crypto community. Perhaps that is why native tokens have experienced the most impressive price increases recently.
APE had been struggling around $0.75 for the past few weeks, but it soared more than 66% after the announcement caught up with X. It has regained the $1 level and has continued to rise to a four-month high of $1.25.
APE's market capitalization has soared to over $900 million, allowing the asset to return to the top 100 largest cryptocurrencies.
