The Aptos Foundation will lock 210 million APT tokens, roughly 18 % of the circulating supply, and stake them indefinitely to fund operations through staking rewards instead of selling tokens. This move is part of a broader tokenomics overhaul that includes a hard supply cap of 2.1 billion tokens. Annual staking rewards will be cut in half from 5.19 % to approximately 2.6 %, while gas fees will increase tenfold with all fees burned. The full set of changes is expected to be implemented by September 2026, coinciding with the end of the initial vesting cycle on October 12, when monthly token unlocks are projected to drop by roughly 60 %.
