Golden Finance reports that Layer 1 blockchain Aptos has shown significant signs of growth despite the sluggish crypto market. Last month, Aptos’ active monthly addresses reached 5.4 million, and user transaction volume exceeded 578 million, setting a record high. The APT token has gained 4.9% in the past 12 months, showing some resilience. However, although these data indicate that the Aptos ecosystem is active, there is skepticism about the authenticity of its on-chain activity. Analysts believe that bot activity and airdrops may have led to the expansion of transaction volume and active addresses, and these high transaction volumes do not necessarily mean there is actual economic activity. It will be key to see if growth can be sustained after the promotion ends. A sustainable blockchain ecosystem requires a balance of new and active users, not just a temporary surge in activity.
