How to pay less gas on ApeChain

ApeChain gas — FAQ

What gas token does ApeChain use?

ApeChain pays gas in APE. Fees on this page are converted to USD using the live APE price, so you can compare ApeChain with the other 55 EVM chains on equal terms.

How much does a swap cost on ApeChain right now?

A typical DEX swap (≈150,000 gas) on ApeChain costs about $0.0020 at the current gas price of 101.70 gwei. This updates every few minutes.

Why are gas fees changing on ApeChain?

Gas rises when demand for block space exceeds supply — NFT mints, airdrop claims, token trading or general congestion. ApeChain's status is compared against its own 7-day median, so "busy" means costlier than usual, not just a raw number.

Is ApeChain a Layer 2?

Yes. ApeChain is a Layer 2 (Gaming L2 (Arbitrum Orbit)). L2s batch transactions off-chain, which is why fees are usually far lower than on Ethereum mainnet.

How do I change my RPC for ApeChain?

Open chainlist.org, search ApeChain (chainId 33139) and add a healthier RPC endpoint to your wallet. Switching RPC does NOT change the gas price (the network sets that), but a fast, non-overloaded endpoint gives better estimates and prevents stuck transactions.

When is the cheapest time to transact on ApeChain?

Gas is often lower at night and on weekends, but every chain has its own rhythm. EVMgastracker keeps 7 days of on-chain history per chain to surface the cheapest windows — see the "Best time" heatmap on the dashboard.
