In 2026, the Aptos ecosystem is betting on mass adoption and deep integration with the real economy. The main efforts will be focused on three strategic areas.
-
Aptos Connect & Identity. Launching a decentralized identity system that allows users to complete KYC once and securely interact with any dApp in the ecosystem. This will reduce barriers for new users and increase the trust of institutional partners.
-
Accelerating DeFi and RWA. The active grant program will focus on attracting real-world asset (RWA) protocols and creating innovative derivatives. The goal is to become a leader in the volume of tokenized assets within the Move ecosystem.
-
Move Games and Social dApps. The ecosystem fund will enhance support for projects focused on sustainable economies within games and social applications with monetization for content creators.
