0x supports both fungible (ERC20) and non-fungible (ERC-723) tokens. It can be used for the permissionless trading of a wide range of assets, giving holders a way to buy, sell and exchange Ethereum assets through more than a dozen different apps.

Here is why the price of AAVE has been rallying over the past three days

The price of the native token of the leading crypto lending platform, Aave, has been on a steady rise over the past three days.

Yesterday, the token surged by more than 5% and hit a high $198.02 before pulling back to its current price of $185.70. Today it is still in the green though with a rise of 1.02% over the last 24 hours.

This article delves into the factors contributing to the current AAVE price.

Why has AAVE price been rallying?

Before we delve into the current uptrend, it is important to first explain what Aave is for the purposes of anyone coming across the term for the first time.

In a nutshell, Aave is a DeFi protocol that enables people to borrow and lend in cryptocurrencies. Its native token is called AAVE.

Now let’s look at what is happening behind the scenes and making the price of AAVE to rise.

AAVE V3 going live on Avalanche

AAVE token seems to be riding on the announcement by the head of DeFi Aave Labs via a tweet saying that AAVE version 3 (AAVE V3) liquidity mining is live on Avalanche blockchain, meaning Avalanche users can now earn rewards by providing liquidity to DeFi protocols on the Avalanche blockchain.

It’s also important to also note that the price of AAVE had also surged in March once it launched its version 3 update that introduced support for cross-chain transactions as well as reduced gas fee.

The recent move of launching AAVE V3 on Avalanche comes after the community voted for the deployment on Avalanche back in October last year; a move that was informed by the many DeFi applications being launched on Avalanche.

ApeCoin has been trending and it is up by over 32% today: here’s why it is rallying?

The price of ApeCoin (APE) coin has risen by 34.03% today and it is was trading at around $16.50 at the time of writing.

In this article, we will focus on what is causing the ApeCoin price to skyrocket.

Why is ApeCoin’s (APE) price rising?

Before we look into the current uptrend, let’s first explain what ApeCoin is.

ApeCoin is a utility and an ERC-20 governance token that is used in the APE ecosystem inspired by Yuga Labs Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) project to incentivize and empower a decentralized community. APE is its native token.

Let’s now delve into the factors causing the bullish trend.

Yuga Labs announcement on its upcoming metaverse

One of the main reasons that have set the coin skyrocketing is the speculations over its founder, Yuga Labs, announcement about the upcoming metaverse.

On March 19, Yuga Labs launched a teaser trailer called Otherside for its upcoming metaverse. However, Yuga did not reveal all the details about the project but there was a clue that it will be a metaverse that will integrate several NFTs and ApeCoin. Besides, Yuga said that more details will be revealed in April.

In addition, Bored Ape Yacht Club will be having its first anniversary on 23 April since its launch.

Land sale launch priced in APE

Another reason for the price hike is after @renegademasterr, Bored Ape owner, said that Yuga is planning to launch land sales for its project soon which will be priced in APE. 

APE and NFT demand by Whales

Another possible reason for the current price rally is the growing interest in Bored Ape NFTs and ApeCoin among the whales.

According to Whalestats, the token is the 5th most purchased by ETH whales with an average of $63500 tokens moved in every transaction.

One of the largest transactions done in the last 24 hours was done by an ETH whale called BlueWhale0093 transacting almost 300,000 tokens for $3.9 million.
