All the latest news and key insights you need from Aptos
Aptos is a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain built to support secure, scalable, and upgradable decentralized applications (dApps). It is designed with user experience, developer productivity, and global adoption in mind. Aptos stands out by using the Move programming language, a secure and flexible smart contract language originally developed for the Diem project by Meta. With a focus on speed and safety, Aptos leverages cutting-edge technologies like parallel execution and modular architecture to deliver blazing-fast throughput without sacrificing security or decentralization.
Aptos was created to address several critical limitations faced by earlier generations of blockchains:
The founders of Aptos, many of whom previously worked on Facebook’s Diem project, envisioned a blockchain that could evolve quickly, handle enterprise-level demand, and support a safer, more scalable Web3 future.
$APT is the native utility token of the Aptos blockchain and plays a vital role in powering the network:
Aptos mainnet officially launched as a Layer-1 blockchain built on the Move language. It aimed for high throughput and scalability, created by ex-Meta (Diem) developers.
APT token airdrop took place, attracting massive user attention and controversy. Over 3 million transactions were processed in the first days despite network strain.
Circle’s USDC stablecoin went live on Aptos, expanding DeFi capabilities. The chain saw growing adoption with nearly 800 million in stablecoins circulating.
Aptos crossed $1 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL), entering top 10 chains. This marked major institutional interest and DeFi ecosystem maturity.
