ApeCoin time
Betting on ApeCoin has been launched, and bounties will begin to accrue on December 12, according to Nansen.

GameStop’s tough times
Layoffs have begun at GameStop. This was reported by Axios sources and several former employees on LinkedIn. GameStop, the world’s largest video game retailer, which has fallen on hard times in recent years, just opened an NFT marketplace this summer. Things looked good at first.

Hardware cryptocurrency wallet maker Ledger has partnered with Tony Fadell, creator of Apple’s iPod and co-founder and former CEO of Nest. He creates the next offline crypto asset storage called Ledger Stax.
