Unpacking Aptos Network Financials! The network revenue of @Aptos is only derived from Real Economic Value(REV), the standardized measure of the value that a blockchain would produce through activities of the users. REV measures the monetary demand to transact on-chain. For Aptos, all REV comes from in-protocol transaction fees. They essentially are Execution Fees and IO Fees for processing and propagation of transactions, respectively. Unlike other networks, Aptos has no out of protocol tips. Neither are storage fees considered as REV, as those are refundable deposits, not forever payments. From the token holders' standpoint , REV is the TOP LINE metric, representing the value users pay and what holders are eligible to earn. Operator peyments refer to the value allocated to infrastructure providers(validators), the value not following to token holders. Aptos validator operators are paid by taking a commission on new token issuance and are not paid from REV since all gas fees are burned. So only that part of inflation which is not going to token holders is considered a cost. Self staked operators(with less than 10% commission) are not accounted for a cost to the network. In contrast, we deduce token holder net income as the difference between revenue and operator payments, quantifying the value that the token holders actually derive. It's worth a reminder that both stakers and non-stakers have different return profiles.

WHAT IS BLOCK TIME? AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR APTOS🌐. I know you guys probably know what a block time means for block chains, but I'm here to re-emphasize on what it means and how it affects aptos. Remember how we always boast that Aptos is super fast, and that our transactions get confirmed or successful in 0.7-0.5 seconds when using your @PetraWallet for instance, well block time is part of the reasons why we can boast of the Aptos speed. Block time refers to how long it takes for a blockchain to produce a new block. A lower block time = faster transactions, quicker confirmations, and improved user experience. As of This week, Aptos has been consistent in having a 126ms block time, which puts it in the league of Fastest Blockchains in existence 💯. This is what gives us that user satisfaction and confidence that when we make a transaction on Aptos, it gets completed immediately. No lags, no network congestions, just lightning fast tnx completion 🔥. Having a small block time gives aptos the ability to make multiple transactions in low latency and high throughput. That's what gives me the confidence to say this boldly... "Aptos is the fastest chain, and it's built to handle Real World Problems" I'm not a tech guy, but I'll like to appreciate @dankestrel, he's the go-to creator when it comes to understanding and breaking down the tech side of Aptos. Thank you for all the efforts you put in when breaking down complex Aptos tech stuff into something we normies can understand😁 APTOS IS THE FUTURE 🌐

BTCfi on Aptos (WBTC) Over $2 trillion worth of Bitcoin is currently sitting idle, unutilized in DeFi but Aptos has a solution for that. Two clear pipelines now connect native Bitcoin to Aptos’ high-performance DeFi layer. 1⃣ OKX’s xBTC offers a custodial route to mint 1:1 BTC on Aptos. 2⃣ @LayerZero_Core WBTC-OFT (NEW): This introduces an omnichain, wrapper-free standard that lets users burn on one chain and mint on another. No lock-ups, no delays, no multiple versions of the same asset just seamless movement of Bitcoin across over 80 chains, now including @Aptos. This adds to real Bitcoin liquidity on Aptos without compromise. The process is simple: users can bridge WBTC via @StargateFinance or swap into it using Aptos DEXs (@hyperion_xyz , @ThalaLabs, @CellanaFinance, @PanoraExchange...). Once on Aptos, WBTC-OFT becomes immediately usable. You can Generate Yields Via; Lending it on @AriesMarkets or LP it on @hyperion_xyz . This isn’t wrapped BTC as we’ve known it this is a better standard and a better yield environment for Bitcoin holders. I also think this is awesome for BTCfi entry for Nigerian's as we can't get our BTC on OKX exchange due to regulatory restrictions. This is onchain and permissionless.

Who says only women fall in love when gifted? ➜ I do too. 😊 After receiving almost $1,000 in $ME for FREE 🔥 during @MEFndn TGE and airdrop in Dec 2024, I fell in love. 💕 -- But made a mistake selling 100% like the majority 🥲 ...and strived to get it back. 💯 Out of curiosity, I dug deep on-chain to see how the other $ME claimers behaved and the post-TGE and post-airdrop user adoption of @MagicEden in DeFi on @solana.

Morning frens Web3 ethos to me always been about more equitable systems. On aptos thinking of a way to support creators who show up create good content ,engage with others in a good manner but miss out on the lb ~ could for example gift my top reply guys/get some frens to pool together funds and support some new creators. @minds_DAO a great initiative you should deffo tap into as a creator. S/o @kantianum @thecaptaingates How best do you think this could be structured? Some way to support good creators who miss out Who wants in? Can shill your best content below . If there's a lot of interest in this can try and set something up

there are 3 kinds of people in crypto: - those who build on Aptos - those who fade Aptos - and those who eventually pivot to Aptos the real ones already know. the rest will catch up or get left behind. bullish on @Aptos
