Welcome to the Cryptohunt Jam, where we spend one minute a day to explain crypto. In plain English.

Bored Apes, Ape Coin… What’s up with all the monkeys in crypto?

Well, they are all named after a crypto  term called “apeing”.

Apeing means taking an abnormally large and risky position in a crypto investment. If someone says: “I just aped into Bitcoin”, they mean that they just bought an irrationally large amount of it, hoping their speculation will work out.

It’s not entirely clear where the word comes from, but we ensure you that apes are probably smarter than some of those investors. Apeing is nothing other than  gambling, and seeking public attention while doing it.

We prefer doing your own research and making smart decisions that play out in the long term - but in the end it’s really up to you!
