Solana-based NFT marketplace Magic Eden’s proposal “AIP 93: A Marketplace for Apes, by Apes, built by Magic Eden – Brand Decision” is now open for voting from September 16-22.
The proposal aims to build the ApeCoinDAO marketplace for ApeCoin (APE) holders to buy and sell ApeCoinDAO NFTs including BAYC, MAYC, BAKC, and Otherside Otherdeeds. It will have discounted 0.75% transaction fee, with no cost to the DAO.
