Use a separate wallet for memecoin trading.
Memecoin trading uses separate wallets. Don't mix your long-term BTC/ETH/SOL wallet with the wallet you sign random Pump.fun txns with. Use Phantom, fund it with a small slice, and treat it as a sandbox. Best operational habit before you ape anything.
Hold $APL at the June snapshot → mint the Ape Pass. The Pass is a transferable proof-of-hold + Discord role gate. Magic Eden / Tensor secondary market opens post-mint. Sizing matters — Pass mint thresholds published before snapshot.
