In February, a set of $APT tokenomics updates was proposed. Here's where each piece stands.
Approved through onchain governance and live:
• Gas fees set 10x higher, with every gas fee burned
• Staking rewards halved from 5.19% to 2.6%
• Supply hard-capped at 2.1B APT
Separately, the genesis unlock schedule for core contributors and investors concluded on October 12, 2026, as published at mainnet launch.
Alongside these updates, Aptos Foundation has committed to locking and permanently staking 210M APT, about 37% of the APT it held at mainnet. Those tokens will never be sold or distributed.
