The Aptos (APT) blockchain has achieved consecutive weekly revenue records, signaling robust on-chain economic activity, even as its native token's price languishes near historic lows. According to data from DeFiLlama, the network generated approximately $1.65 million in revenue during the week of December 22–28, 2025. This figure climbed to $1.75 million in the following week, ending January 4, 2026.
A key milestone was reached on December 31, 2025, when Aptos recorded a single-day revenue of $1.07 million, marking its highest-ever daily revenue. Secondary news reports attribute this surge to the launch of futures products by Bitnomial, though direct confirmation from Aptos or Bitnomial leadership is lacking.
The revenue is primarily derived from transaction fees, protocol fees, and application-based monetization, serving as a key indicator of real-world usage and the network's economic sustainability.
Despite these strong fundamental metrics, the APT token's market performance tells a different story. The price has fallen by 78% over the past year amid a broader altcoin downturn. At the time of reporting, APT was trading around $1.92, which represents a 90% decline from its all-time high of $19.90. This stark contrast highlights a significant divergence between on-chain utility and market valuation.
