Ecosystem Economic Activity Surges
On-chain application revenue on the Aptos (APT) network has broken records for two consecutive weeks, signaling remarkable momentum in the ecosystem’s economic activity.
According to data from DeFiLlama, Aptos generated approximately $1.65 million in revenue during the week of December 22–28, 2025. This figure saw an increase to $1.75 million in the subsequent week, from December 29, 2025, to January 4, 2026.
Further highlighting this surge, Aptos' daily revenue reached $1.07 million on December 31, 2025, marking the highest single-day revenue ever recorded for the network.
Revenue Drivers and Price Performance
The primary sources of Aptos' revenue include transaction fees, protocol fees, and application-based monetization items. These metrics are considered key indicators of on-chain real-world usage and the network's economic sustainability.
Despite these positive on-chain figures, the price performance of APT has been less impressive. Since last year, during a period when many altcoins struggled, the APT price has experienced a significant decline of 78%. At the time of reporting, the coin is trading at $1.92, which is 90% lower than its all-time high of $19.90.
