Yuga Labs accused of IP theft
Surprisingly, the growth in the aforementioned areas came amidst a raging controversy where Yuga Labs allegedly used an unlicensed design for the logo of its Bored Ape Kennel Club (BAKC) NFT collection.
Yuga Labs’ co-founder reacted to the allegations and stated that the BAKC logo will be changed. At the time of writing, the controversial wolf skull was dropped from the logo on OpenSea’s portal.
Данас сам видео тврдње о логотипу БАКЦ-а. Ово је била новост за нас и још увек истражујемо ситуацију. Контактирали смо слободњака којег смо унајмили за тај дизајн и водиче за једноставно цртање. Променићемо лого и ажурирати га на нашој веб локацији / затражити од тржишта да се промени као… https://t.co/OwtflDXehz

The ecosystem’s NFT token АпеЦоин [АПЕ] managed to shrug off the negativity from this episode too as it became one of the most used smart contracts among the top Ethereum [ETH] whales, as per a tweet by WhaleStats.

Token unlocks could derail ApeCoin
Despite the interest shown by whales, APE’s supply on exchanges increased, per data from Santiment. A rise in this metric served as a bearish signal for the token’s price.
The on-chain data didn’t evoke much enthusiasm as well. The daily active addresses dropped sharply over the last 10 days. The token also failed to entice new users as implied by the falling network growth graph.
A combination of these factors could have dampened the spirits of investors which was reflected in the falling weighted sentiment for the coin. But what could be behind this below-par performance?

Recently, Apecoin released some coins in the market as part of its token unlock plan.
The increase in circulating supply caused the price to fall by as much as 8%.
With another unlock due to happen in a month’s time, holders were jittery about a further fall in the coin’s value.
At the time of writing, APE exchanged hands at $5.71, a rise of 1.71% over the previous day, as per ЦоинМаркетЦап.
