Since its mainnet launch, Aptos [APT] might have struggled to live up to investor expectations considering the project’s hype. According to <\/span>Aptos Explorer<\/span><\/a>, the Layer-One (L1) blockchain has not done much to meet up its promises.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

APT was referred to as the “Solana [SOL] killer” in the build-up to the launch, However, the pledge of over 100,000 transactions per second seemed challenging to become a reality in the early days.<\/span><\/p>\n

Based on information from the explorer, APT had only managed an average of 11.8 transactions per second.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

APT has had a total supply of a little above $1 billion. At the same time, 82.83 million APT were actively staked with 102 validators involved. Noteworthy was the fact that 6.78 million transactions had taken place on the chain.<\/span><\/p>\n

Four years to build, and here’s all to show<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

According to Aptos Foundation, the Silicon Valley-based team, it took four years for APT to come to life. This was revealed in the <\/span>Medium<\/span><\/a> post made available to the public on 17 October. <\/span><\/p>\n

Based on the communique, the Foundation noted that Aptos built the project for more people to access Decentralized Applications (DApps). The Medium post read,\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“We believe in the need for a rapidly innovating and adaptable blockchain that serves the needs of people today and our future generations. Upgradeability, Move, and a people-first user experience are some of the core principles and unique features of the Aptos blockchain that brought this amazing, vibrant ecosystem together to bring web3 to all.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Despite displaying confidence in its ability to deliver, APT had shredded a considerable size of its trading volume since launch. <\/span><\/p>\n

According to Santiment, APT’s\u00a0<\/span>volume<\/span><\/a>\u00a0at press time was $573.75 million. As of 19 October, it was as high as $1.89 billion. This meant the APT investors who had accumulated earlier were selling off and reducing their holdings.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result, the initial 680% APT hike of 19 October, which took the price to $8.34, had been downsized. According to\u00a0<\/span>CoinMarketCap<\/span><\/a>, APT was trading at $7.42 at press time. This price was a 1.68% decrease from the last 24 hours.<\/span><\/p>\n

Supports, concerns, and what’s to come<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

While it was no surprise that top exchanges, including Binance, and FTX, added APT as part of their tradable assets, some concerns have been raised. <\/span><\/p>\n

Despite the fears, an Aptos developer, Josh Lind, noted that it was a marathon rather than a sprint for the team. According to Lind, the Aptos blockchain was running smoothly. <\/span><\/p>\n

While he admitted that resources were not being used to their full potential, there would be more applications, transactions, and increased addresses on the chain.<\/span><\/p>\n
