The Aptos Foundation has announced a number of possible policy changes that could lead to a greater deflation of APT.
It is a X post On Wednesday, Aptos Foundation stated that they would be submitting several governance proposals for the transition of the ecosystem from its current subsidies-based emission model to a more focused approach. “performance-driven mechanisms” Reducing APT production.
“The Aptos network is transitioning to performance-driven tokenomics designed to align supply mechanics with network utilization,” “The Aptos Foundation” said the foundation, adding:
“This update replaces bootstrap-era subsidy with mechanisms tied to transaction activity, establishing a framework where burns can exceed emissions as high-throughput applications scale.”
The foundation has proposed a cap on the total number of tokens at 2.1 billion, since APT does not have a maximum limit. The team stated that there are currently 1,196 million APT available.
According to the current emission scheme, tokens continue to be minted in an effort support the ecosystem through funding for things such as grants, development and staking reward.
While tokens are still being unlocked, the future of this ecosystem is a bright one.
Nevertheless, Aptos Foundation According to the company, this pressure is decreasing and will decrease further after October when the fourth major unlock cycle of tokens ends.
According to the team, the industry has evolved so much that large institutions, such as BlackRock Franklin Templeton Apollo, are now using it. “hundreds of millions onchain,” Tokenomics APT needs to become more durable.
“Without reform, emissions continue indefinitely with no hard ceiling, no performance requirements, and no connection between issuance and network activity,” The team stated.
There are several key policy proposals in the works.
In addition to the 2.1 billion hard supply limit, policy changes proposed include decreasing the annual staking reward rate from 5.19% to 2.6% as well as increasing the rewards for “longer staking commitments.”
According to The Aptos Foundation, this will reduce the overall emissions of stakes while rewarding participants who have been participating for a long time.
A team elsewhere is pushing to increase the gas fee by 10 times, saying that it’s possible given the low cost of using the network. Gas fees from APT would reduce emissions as they are burnt.

“Even with a 10X increase, stablecoin transfers would still be the lowest in the world at around $0.00014, making it the ideal blockchain for stablecoins, payments, and any other similar high-volume transactions,” The team stated.
Aptos Foundation proposed to permanently lock 210 million tokens APT for stake on the blockchain. The team stated that this would be “functionally equivalent to a token burn” The rewards will be used for the foundation’s operations.
Team members also announced that they would change their grant policy, and implement stricter KPIs in order to guarantee greater performance prior issuing tokens. To balance supply, the foundation may also consider a token-buyback program or an APT reserve.
Aptos Foundation does not seek to be the only one seeking to change native token dynamics. In January the Optimism Governance Community approved a proposed from its Foundation to initiate a buyback program Superchain revenues are 50%.
