In 2024, Aptos, a blockchain platform, has experienced significant growth and success in the crypto market. Despite the dominance of Ethereum and Solana, Aptos capitalized on the trend for alternative liquidity venues. It saw its influence and value increase, with APT tokens peaking at under $20. The chain has faced challenges in raising liquidity due to its non-EVM compatible nature. However, it was added to Tether Inc.'s list for native USDT and currently holds over $323 million in stablecoins. Binance has also added wallets for Aptos-based stablecoins. Aptos has seen a substantial increase in total value locked, reaching $1.31 billion across its protocols. Bridging activity has contributed to liquidity growth, with $3 billion in bridged assets in the year to date. The platform is still in its early stage and operating at a loss, but it has managed to attract a record number of daily active users and monthly active users. Aptos is dependent on the success of its apps, including Echo for tokenizing Bitcoin and Thala Labs for liquidity and DEX trades. It has also gained traction from partnerships with traditional finance clients. Additionally, Aptos introduced a user-generated token market called Emojicoin.
