自从 Yuga Labs 首次宣布 ApeCoin 以来，它一直在掀起波澜，尽管它像另一种数字资产一样，也有过起伏。在其母公司 NFT 系列 Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) 获得了亿万富翁埃隆·马斯克的关注后，它最近又回到了前线。以抽取各种数字资产而闻名的马斯克在对他的 Twitter 个人资料做了一个小改动后导致 ApeCoin 飙升。
在 Elon Musk 将他的 Twitter 个人资料图片设为 BAYC 头像的集合后，ApeCoin 的价格出现了显着上涨。它很快引起了该领域投资者的关注，因为他们将 FOMO 纳入了数字资产。由此产生的增长是 20% 的峰值，发生在这一举措之后的几分钟内 ApeCoin 涨至 17.25 美元。

不过，在这位亿万富翁的后续推文上线后，这种情况不会持续太久。单枪匹马导致价格飙升的马斯克最终将对这次复苏后的下跌负责。第二条推文很简单，但显然是指 NFT 的可替代性，暗示它们确实是可替代的，而不是投资者认为的那样。
我不知道……似乎有点可替代
——埃隆·马斯克 (@elonmusk)2022 年 5 月 4 日
APE 已经消退，但不是在损害已经造成之前。通过这一举措，马斯克已经证明，该领域的任何资产都可能会因为纯粹的炒作而增加。到推文发布时，ApeCoin 已跌回 15 美元区域。
尽管马斯克将头像改为 BAYC 头像的举动似乎是为了证明这些 jpeg 的可替代性，但它引发了一个问题，即 ApeCoin 未来的盈利能力在哪里。与狗狗币一样，该领域的人士现在开始质疑这位亿万富翁是否计划不断将与 NFT 相邻的加密货币推向他的社区，或者这是否是一次性事件。
NFT 市场 WeWay 的创始人兼首席执行官 Fuad Fatullaev 说：“他作为比特币、狗狗币和柴犬的支持者赢得了巨大的声誉，他刚刚在他的 Twitter 个人资料中添加了一张无聊的猿猴拼贴画。”

到目前为止，马斯克并没有真正成为 NFT 社区的一员，也没有与它结盟，但也许这可能是这位亿万富翁的新事物的开始。如果是这样，从像 BAYC 这样的大型项目开始就不会完全不同寻常。有了马斯克对像 APE 这样的代币的认可，它很容易成为该领域市值最大的加密货币之一。

“此外，ApeCoin 目前名列全球前 40 大加密货币之列，”Fatullaev 补充道。 “正如我们在他之前的宣传中看到的那样，Bored Apes 的持续先令可以促进 APE 代币价格的增长，在接下来的几周内可能会触及 25 美元。”
在撰写本文时，APE 的交易价格为 16 美元。该数字资产已从马斯克先令的高位回落，但即使炒作消退仍继续保持稳定。
