Published by

Aptos has rolled out a major tokenomics overhaul aimed at tightening supply and boosting long-term value. The update cuts staking rewards to 2.6 percent and raises gas fees 10x, with fees designed to drive token burns. The total supply is capped at 2.1 billion APT, while 210 million tokens are permanently locked by the Foundation. Aptos is also exploring buybacks and expects over 32 million APT to be burned annually after its upcoming ecosystem DEX goes live, increasing deflationary pressure.
