Aptos Activates Encrypted Mempool as Four-Year Token Vesting Ends
- —AIP-144 conceals the called function and inputs until a block is finalized
- —A 50-node test added about 20 ms per block, still finalizing in under a second
- —Monthly APT issuance cut roughly 60%, from 11.31 million to 4.54 million tokens
- —871.02 million APT were in circulation as of September 30; staking yields up to 2.6%
Why it matters: MEV front-running protection plus a sharp drop in APT emissions could ease sell pressure on the token.
