🔥 $APT ahead of a major change in tokenomics
The Aptos Foundation has announced a plan to reduce annual Staking rewards from 5.19% to 2.6%, with the permanent lock and storage of 210 million APT—around 18% of the circulating supply.
The idea here is to reduce the issuance of new tokens and link ecosystem incentives to real performance metrics, instead of distributing them unconditionally. The plan also includes a supply cap of 2.1 billion APT, along with an increase in network fees, with the fees being burned.
If these changes succeed, we may see lower sell-pressure on $APT over time, but the real impact will depend on network activity and the amount of burning.
For me, this is a very important update to monitor $APT , especially as the current Unlocks cycle is nearing its end.
