Binance’s move is a part of the company’s broader effort to enter the NFT market and compete with OpenSea. However, there are certain conditions that holders must fulfil. First, the NFTs must be listed by owners at 1.1 times the minimum price in order to be considered. In addition, users can only sell their NFTs using a fixed-price listing. The exchange will screenshot each day when qualifying listings are eligible for draw entries. Binance says it will set aside 10 listings for holders of Bored Ape, two listings for Mutant Ape, and one for Kennel.
Binance spot wallets will be credited with ApeCoin rewards every day between 00:00 and 08:00 UTC by the cryptocurrency exchange (UTC). Users will begin receiving incentives the day after they stake the NFTs, and the APR will be calculated daily. Binance has set aside 10,000 ApeCoins as an incentive for this endeavour. The awards will be doled out on a daily basis based on a count of all listings that qualify, as determined by the snapshots taken that day.
The NFT market has been on the downturn in 2022, paling in comparison to its stellar performance in 2021.
