# Marketplace

The **Ape Church** NFT Marketplace is a specialized environment dedicated to the buying, selling, and minting of  Ape Church NFTs. To prevent scams and replicate collections, we've established a unique marketplace solely for  Ape Church NFTs.

Here, only  Ape Church NFTs will be available for trade, and users can set their own prices if they wish to sell their NFTs. Additionally, the marketplace is the exclusive location for purchasing NFTs that have already been minted and are owned by other users.

Minting new NFTs, which have not yet been created, will also occur within this marketplace.

To enhance the value of NFTs, a floor price contract will be implemented, funded by platform service fees collected from game activities. This system will help establish a stable valuation for NFTs, boosting confidence among holders. Furthermore, it will allow users to burn their NFTs if desired, in exchange for a one-time payment equivalent to the floor price of their NFT.

These mechanisms are designed to ensure the continuous appreciation of NFTs, while allowing holders to earn royalties from the platform simultaneously.
