Summary

Circle Internet Financial has announced that Circle Wallets now support Aptos, a Move-based layer-1 blockchain known for its secure, scalable, and upgradeable infrastructure aimed at powering future financial systems. This integration allows Aptos developers to leverage Circle's enterprise-grade wallet infrastructure, which is already utilized across EVM chains and Solana, to facilitate seamless multichain support. Key features include API or SDK-generated wallets, user gas fee sponsorship via Gas Station, real-time transaction screening, and multichain app development from a single codebase. The decision to support Aptos is driven by its rapid growth, with a 96% increase in developer activity year-over-year and a significant rise in stablecoin supply, highlighting the platform's burgeoning ecosystem. Circle aims to use this support to provide a secure and flexible environment for developers to create scalable applications with stablecoins, enhancing economic opportunity and prosperity worldwide.
