# What Is Apella?

**Apella** is a token on the **Solana blockchain**, designed for **fast, frictionless** micro-transactions. With a **fixed supply of 3 billion tokens** and no extra transaction fee *(beyond Solana’s negligible network cost)*, Apella makes it effortless to tip creators, unlock small services, or pay for premium content—instantly and affordably.
