# $ELM Utilities

$ELM will be the fuel of the ElementalApes Ecosystem. \
Indeed it will have several utilities and use-cases. 

We aim to make your gaming experience valuable, and we want to make our TOKEN worth more and more overtime. \
Once the entire Ecosystem will be operative, We think that most people will **Stake/HOLD/USE their $ELM inside of the ElementalApes Game**, instead of swapping it into $EGLD.
