ApeCoin holders are losing faith and here are the top reasons
The most hyped token launch of the year was the Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT collection’s ApeCoin. It managed to draw in a huge audience of investors in a very short period of time.
But unfortunately, the bears didn’t let the token perform well. Therefore, APE in the past few months saw investors exit its network at a fast pace.
The NFT token hit an all-time high (ATH) of $26.24 on 29 April 2022- within a month of its launch.
However, on 26 July, APE was trading at $5.73. At its lowest price point on 15 June, APE traded at $3.07. But thanks to the broader market recovery, the token is 87.77% up from its cycle low.
Despite a satisfactory recovery from the latest low point, APE has not parted ways with the price volatility.
In fact, in the previous three days of 26 July, the NFT token declined by 14%.

Evidence of the same is visible in the total addresses that the network has. Up until July 20, the total number of APE holders sat at 77.58k.
However, in the following 24 hours, over 1.14k investors decided to exit their positions.
Since then, over the week, APE has managed to gain only some 220 investors.

A section of these investors preferred HODLing in the latest recovery. They were active only twice in the previous two months.
The highest noted transaction volume coincidentally came on 20 July when figures touched $213 million.

Investors’ appearance on that day did make sense.
Some signs of selling were also observed. On 20 July, the total APE moved was collectively above its buying price. Thus, generating $48.84 million in the process.
