APE — Governance Rights Report
Tier 5 S4 — Token-to-Equity Conversion Assessment as of 2026-08-31
GSA-1 fail GSA-2 fail GSA-3 fail GSA-4 fail GSA-5 fail GSA-6 fail GSA-7 fail GSA-8 fail

Why this rating: Voted itself out of existence (AIP-596, 99.19% approval) — APE is now ApeChain gas with all token-holder rights extinguished under ApeCo (Yuga Labs). DISSOLVED (S4 exit — ApeCo extinguishment cousin): AIP-596 nullified all governance rights, zero consideration; Historical GSA-3 partial (ApeChain gas burn) recorded as fail per whitespace-map index treatment
