Aptos Tokens: Unveiling Supply Dynamics, Strategic Investments

At present, a majority of the tokens on the network, exceeding 82%, are secured by the distribution schedule and staked across all categories. There will be 24.84M APT (Aptos tokens) opened on November 12.

It distributes funds to the foundation, investors, primary contributors, and the community. The massive quantity of tokens that have been issued generates conjecture regarding a substantial depletion of supply and the possibility of a subsequent decrease in value.

The mainnet of Aptos was initially activated with a supply of one billion Aptos tokens (APT). The minimum unit of precision for these eight-digit tokens is known as an Octa.

The proportion of tokens in the possession of the Aptos Foundation is 410,217,359.767. However, 100,000,000 are in Aptos Labs’ control. Over the next ten years, these will be allocated to support a variety of foundational and community initiatives.

An initial allocation of 125,000,000 APT is designated for the community category.

Furthermore, an additional 5,000,000 APT is allocated for the foundation category. Over the next ten years, the remaining tokens of both types are anticipated to become progressively unlocked.

A four-year lock-up schedule applies to core contributors and investors, commencing with a phased unlocking process thirteen months after the mainnet launch.

$200 million was raised in a Series A round headed by FTX Ventures and Jump Crypto, and $150 million was raised in a strategic round led by Andreessen Horowitz for Aptos.

Additionally, Dragonfly Capital and Binance Labs made strategic investments in Aptos. The present circulating supply stands at 249,315,151 APT, while the real-time circulating supply, as reported by Oklink, is 195.18M APT, of which 869.63M APT (or 87%) are staked.

The top 100 holders control 83% of the supply in circulation. It maintains 161.17M APT in total. The considerable proportion of staked tokens signifies a robust dedication to the community.

A powerful cryptocurrency landscape, a history of successful fundraising, and strategic partnerships indicate that Aptos is poised for continued success in this dynamic industry.
