Apeing has opened Stage 1 of its presale, called the Banana Drop, at $0.0001 per $APEING with a limited allocation of 150 million tokens. The launch comes as traders continue to monitor established meme coins including Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT).

The presale is structured across multiple stages, with prices scheduled to increase as the sale progresses. Staged pricing of this kind is a common structure among token presales, designed so that each announced phase carries a higher entry price than the one before. The project has stated a listing price of $0.01. Under the announced structure, the current Stage 1 price is therefore 100 times below the stated listing price, although the listing price and any future market value are not guaranteed. Tokens purchased in a presale are also typically not tradable until a listing occurs, which is why stated listing prices function as project announcements rather than market quotations.

Apeing Opens Its First Presale Stage

Apeing’s Stage 1 presale provides access to the first announced pricing phase before later stages. The allocation for this phase is limited to 150 million $APEING tokens, and the project has indicated that the same price will not necessarily remain available after the stage closes.

Apeing is built on Ethereum as an ERC-20 token. It has a fixed total supply of 16.75 billion $APEING, of which 40%, or 6.7 billion tokens, has been allocated to the presale. The project has also outlined staking and referral features as part of its broader ecosystem.

The project’s stated pricing structure means that the $0.0001 figure applies specifically to Stage 1. Later presale stages are announced at higher prices. Participation terms, eligibility and the availability of the allocation should be checked through Apeing’s official channels.

At the stated Stage 1 price, $1,000 would correspond mathematically to 10,000,000 $APEING tokens. If those tokens were valued at the stated $0.01 listing price, their theoretical value would be $100,000. This calculation does not represent a guaranteed return or a prediction of future value.

Official Apeing Information

Apeing’s official website is apeing.com. The project also lists its Telegram channel and X account as official channels.

During a live token sale, participants should verify presale status, eligibility, wallet addresses and payment instructions directly through the project’s official sources. Unsolicited messages containing wallet addresses or payment instructions should not be treated as official confirmation.

Shiba Inu Trades Lower as Activity Remains Cautious

Shiba Inu (SHIB) traded at approximately $0.055422, down 0.92% over the previous 24 hours. The token recorded a daily low of $0.055391 and a high of $0.055563, indicating a relatively narrow trading range.

SHIB’s market capital stood near $3.19 billion, while 24-hour trading volume was approximately $67.45 million. More than 589 trillion SHIB were reported to be circulating, and the token had roughly 3.08 million reported holders. Circulating supply and holder counts are among the metrics commonly cited for meme coins, a category defined more by community participation than by utility-driven demand.

The latest movement placed SHIB around the $0.0554 area. A move above $0.055563 would mark a break above the reported daily high, while a move below $0.055391 would take the token below its reported daily low. SHIB remained about 94% below its October 2021 all-time high of $0.00008845.

Peanut the Squirrel Holds Near $0.05

Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT) traded at approximately $0.05037, up 0.08% over 24 hours. Its daily range extended from $0.04952 to $0.05148, keeping the token close to the $0.05 level.

PNUT’s market capitalization stood near $50.37 million, while 24-hour trading volume reached approximately $7.79 million. Around 999.84 million PNUT were reported to be circulating, with more than 82,000 reported holders. Based on those reported figures, PNUT’s 24-hour volume amounted to roughly 15% of its market capitalization, compared with about 2% for SHIB over the same period.

The token’s reported range places $0.05148 above the latest price and $0.04952 below it. PNUT remains far below its November 2024 all-time high of $2.47, but it is still above its recorded low of $0.03396.

Apeing Differs From Established Meme Coins

SHIB remains one of the most recognized meme coins and has a large reported holder base, while PNUT continues to record trading activity around the $0.05 region. Apeing is at a different stage of development because its token is being offered through a presale rather than trading on an established public market.

The current Apeing offering is Stage 1, the Banana Drop, at $0.0001 per $APEING, with an allocation of 150 million tokens. The project has announced a staged pricing model, a $0.01 listing price, an Ethereum ERC-20 structure and a fixed total supply of 16.75 billion tokens. These are project statements and do not establish a guaranteed listing outcome or future token value.

For anyone following the story, the near-term markers are procedural rather than price-based: announcements about the close of Stage 1 and the terms of later stages, which the project has said will be priced higher, together with whether SHIB and PNUT continue to hold within their reported daily ranges. Any confirmation of listing arrangements would likewise come through Apeing’s official channels rather than from unsolicited third-party messages.
