description: How value flows and scales in the AI Ape ecosystem
---

# AIAPE Ecosystem

1. Users stake $AIAPE → Unlock premium tools + qualify for rewards
2. Better tools → More bot usage & trading volume
3. Platform collects 1% fee from bot volume
4. Part of the fee flows back to stakers + mindshare contributors
5. Increased token demand & stronger community activity
6. More users join to stake, trade, and earn
7. The loop repeats — stronger every cycle

This flywheel design ensures that value flows to active participants and scales with platform growth — turning $AIAPE into more than just a token, but a core engine of utility and reward.
