According to BlockBeats, on February 5, Alex Shin, co-founder of South Korean crypto venture capital company Hashed, said: "Aptos is a meme coin in South Korea. South Korea's largest asset class is real estate, or more precisely, apartments. Retail investors call Aptos "apartments," claiming that if people hold APT, they will be able to afford a real apartment one day. "In the past month, APT has risen nearly 5 times, and the APT spot trading volume of Upbit, South Korea's largest trading platform, once exceeded Binance.
