Aptos Blockchain Surges 30% as SEC Reviews ETF, Wall Street Giants Integrate
Aptos, a high-speed blockchain, has seen remarkable growth and regulatory progress. Its native token, APT, surged nearly 30% in October 2025, reaching a local high of $5.37. Meanwhile, the SEC is reviewing Bitwise's Aptos ETF application, and Aptos Labs' CEO joined a regulatory subcommittee in June 2025.
Aptos' developer activity has skyrocketed, with an 897% increase in the past year, according to Chain Broker data. This growth is supported by several Wall Street giants integrating Aptos into their strategies. BlackRock and Franklin Templeton expanded their funds to include Aptos in late 2024. Bitwise launched an Aptos Staking ETP on the SIX Swiss Exchange in November 2024, offering staking rewards.
The APT token has responded positively to these developments. It jumped 18% in March 2025, reaching $6.48, and again in October 2025, following the SEC filing and a partnership with World Liberty Financial. This partnership led to the launch of a USD1 stablecoin on the Aptos network, supported by major DeFi protocols and exchanges.
Aptos' rapid growth and increasing regulatory acceptance have drawn significant attention. With major financial institutions integrating its blockchain and a successful SEC filing, Aptos looks set to continue its upward trajectory. The APT token's recent price increases reflect this positive sentiment.
