$APE EASIER: Magic Eden Now Lets You Buy ApeChain NFTs with Ethereum

Owning $Ape is no longer the only way to get in on the NFT action on ApeChain, as Magic Eden has announced that everyone can now “$Ape onto Ape” and pay with Ethereum!

Late Saturday night, Magic Eden’s Mechanic Voh took to social media to reveal that the NFT marketplace just made purchasing an ApeChain NFT easier than ever.

 

“Buy ApeChain NFTs with ETH,” she tweeted along with a video of an Eth to Ape transaction. “Buying an ApeChain NFT in 30s without bridging, using Ethereum (or any other supported EVM currency), only on Magic Eden.”

 

 

“This is a really cool feature,” Former ApeCoin DAO Special Council Member and ApeChain Banana Bill Advisor Captain Trippy tweeted after this update.

 

Adding Ethereum as a payment option for ApeChain NFTs on Magic Eden is the second major move by the marketplace recently to encourage more Web3 users to explore ApeChain.

As the Bored Ape Gazette previously reported, Magic Eden announced in late October that users could now purchase ApeChain NFTs using $Ape on Ethereum.

“We’ve made it even easier to buy ApeChain NFTs,” the Marketplace tweeted on October 25th.  “We’ll handle the bridging for you, just use ETH,” the NFT marketplace tweeted. “Now there’s really no excuse not to buy ApeChain NFTs.”

 

With these updates, $Ape holders on ApeChain, Ethereum-based $Ape holders, and Ethereum holders can all use their coins to snag non-fungible tokens on ApeChain, like  Jimmy, MONKEES, ApePunks, Apes On Ape, Mutant Jimmy, RILLAZ, F0lds, Things We Say We Saw, PENGEES, Pepees, and hundreds of other ApeChain native NFTs.

The Bored Ape Gazette will continue to follow updates from Magic Eden and report on the impact of these changes on the ApeChain NFT market. Stay tuned for updates!
