Aptos ecosystem fully upgraded to create a frictionless Web3 infrastructure
Aptos Ecosystem Moves Towards Full-Scene Infrastructure
Aptos is at a critical turning point, transitioning from a single high-performance public chain to a comprehensive infrastructure platform. Its sub-second transaction confirmation and extremely low Gas costs, along with the continuous breakthroughs of the Move language in security and development efficiency, lay a solid foundation for this transformation. Recently, the Aptos ecosystem has shown significant growth: the total locked value in DeFi has surpassed the $1 billion mark, and the daily settlement volume of the native stablecoin has increased by 300%. These data reflect that the logic of ecological construction is shifting from simple application stacking to deep integration of the technology stack.
In this process, Movemaker acts as an ecological accelerator, demonstrating unique strategic vision through its Grantee program. Unlike traditional funding models that chase short-term trends, Movemaker focuses more on the dual empowerment of improving technical infrastructure and reshaping user behavior. The selected 11 Grantee projects cover a complete value chain from underlying protocols to application layers, from developers to end users, forming a comprehensive ecosystem.
This layout directly responds to the annual challenge of the Aptos ecosystem: how to translate technological advantages into practical application scenarios. Movemaker's answer through the Grantee program is to build a "zero-friction" experience with technical middleware. Whether it’s social token issuance, natural language DeFi operations, or global payment solutions, all are reducing user barriers while translating Aptos' technical characteristics into tangible product advantages. This "invisible infrastructure upgrade" is quietly reshaping the landscape of public chain competition.
Here is a brief introduction to 11 Grantee projects:
Tokimonster: Innovative Social Meme Issuance
Tokimonster is redefining the issuance logic of Meme tokens with the core concept of "Social as Launchpad." By integrating an AI screening mechanism and on-chain transparency, it addresses issues such as high barriers to entry, varying content quality, and insider trading that are common in traditional Meme issuances. Users only need to publish their ideas on social platforms to generate tokens with zero code and zero Gas fees, while the AI also screens the content value to eliminate low-quality projects.
AITOS: The Revolution of Simplified DeFi Operations
AITOS is built on an asynchronous framework and creates a native AI Agent system for Aptos, simplifying complex DeFi operations into natural language instructions. Users select target plans through the strategy library, and the AI automatically coordinates cross-protocol transactions, achieving full-process automation of asset allocation, dynamic rebalancing, and risk management. This product significantly enhances capital efficiency and user participation in Aptos DeFi by lowering the barriers to the use of professional strategies.
AllScale: Reconstructing Global Payment Infrastructure
AllScale relies on the high performance and low cost characteristics of Aptos to create a global settlement network for the two-way circulation of stablecoins and fiat currencies. Addressing the pain points of traditional cross-border payments, AllScale simplifies invoicing, payroll, and settlement processes through blockchain and stablecoins. Its "dual-engine" architecture supports distributed teams in completing cross-border payroll disbursement, e-commerce settlement, and other scenarios with a single click, compressing settlement time to the minute level.
APRO: The Data Bridge Between AI Agents and the Real World
APRO, as the first Multi-Agent data infrastructure, provides verifiable and tamper-proof data services for the AI Agent ecosystem through zero-knowledge proofs and TEE hardware security technology. APRO enhances oracle performance using AI Agent technology, addressing the security and real-time shortcomings of traditional oracles. Its dual-layer security architecture has been adopted by multiple public chain projects, becoming the underlying standard in the AI Meme wave.
Yeap Finance: The Capital Efficiency Enhancer of Modular Lending
Yeap Finance redefines lending protocols through modular design, offering innovative tools such as flash loans and leveraged LPs. Its customizable vaults support a variety of yield strategies, significantly enhancing users' capital utilization. In particular, the leveraged liquidity mining feature allows users to amplify incentive earnings from DEX. Yeap Finance is building a complete financial stack from basic lending to complex derivatives.
TeeNet: Decentralized Custodial Security Assurance
TeeNet combines TEE hardware with MPC algorithms to provide trustless key management and execution environments for the Aptos ecosystem. It offers secure wallet services and cross-chain bridge functionality for DApps, effectively preventing asset tampering. Its technological breakthrough enables cross-chain assets to achieve fully decentralized custody on Aptos, addressing the centralization risks of traditional cross-chain solutions.
ZKOM: The Trust Foundation of AI Computing Power
ZKOM is building a decentralized AI computing platform, utilizing zk-STARK zero-knowledge technology to ensure the trustworthiness and tamper-proof nature of the computation results. Its POCI protocol provides verifiable integrity proofs for distributed AI computing. ZKOM is constructing a one-stop AI development platform that covers data, models, and interfaces, lowering the entry barrier for Web2 developers and providing trustworthy computing power services for smart contracts and AI services.
XWorld: Creator of the AI Game Economy
XWorld has built the first decentralized AI gaming ecosystem, training Agent models through a large amount of gaming data to achieve a closed loop of player content creation and economic benefits. XWorld focuses on bringing user behavior on-chain and building a data sovereignty ecosystem. Its on-chain AI training framework has attracted numerous game developers, injecting a large amount of Web2 user traffic into the Aptos ecosystem.
TradingFlowAI: The Democratization of Quantitative Strategies
TradingFlowAI is the world's first decentralized quantitative fund platform that utilizes AI algorithms and natural language generation to create trading strategies, bringing professional quantitative trading tools to ordinary users. Users can participate in quantitative investment by generating AI strategies through natural language without the need for coding. Its transparent profit distribution mechanism, combined with the high throughput characteristics of Aptos, is reshaping the decentralized asset management landscape.
Magma: Innovation in Liquid Staking Yield
Magma enhances Aptos staking yields through a dual mechanism of MEV capture and liquidity optimization. Its LST protocol not only strengthens network security but also provides users with composable staking assets, promoting DeFi innovation. The concurrently incubated HC protocol targets cross-chain liquidity aggregation, refining the ecological staking track layout.
Move to Learn: The Sustained Driving Force of Developer Communities
Move to Learn is a developer education platform within the Aptos ecosystem, combining functionalities such as identity verification, learning certification, course copyright, token incentives, and community governance. Through token incentives and Edu Agent services, it builds a positive cycle of "learn-use-earn." Its on-chain course system and practical tasks continuously supply development talent to Aptos, addressing the long-term human resource bottleneck in ecosystem development.
Movemaker precisely supports these 11 key projects through the Grantee program, covering four dimensions: infrastructure, financial tools, AI integration, and user growth. These innovations not only strengthen Aptos's technological and ecological barriers but also define the evolution direction of the next generation of blockchain applications—lower thresholds, higher intelligence, and deeper integration. With the continuous implementation of the Grantee projects, the flywheel effect of the Aptos ecosystem has entered an accelerated cycle.
