Ecosystem Spotlight: Amnis Finance – Powering Liquid Staking on Aptos

As the largest liquid staking protocol on Aptos, Amnis Finance has become a cornerstone of the Aptos DeFi ecosystem.

With over 417,000 stakers and a record-breaking 35 million APT staked, Amnis is redefining liquidity and accessibility for Aptos holders. The protocol consistently ranks among the top three DeFi protocols by Total Value Locked (TVL) as it prepares for its Token Generation Event (TGE).

The Power of Liquid Staking on Aptos

Since its arrival on Aptos, Amnis has positioned itself as a key player in Aptos DeFi–offering a seamless staking experience for users to maximize capital efficiency. 

Traditional staking requires users to lock up their assets, limiting their ability to engage in DeFi activities. Amnis Finance solves this by introducing liquid staking, allowing users to stake their APT while maintaining liquidity through liquid staking tokens—a yield-bearing asset that can be used across various DeFi applications to unlock new opportunities for yield farming, lending and more.

By partnering with top projects in the ecosystem like Aries Markets, Cellana Finance, Liquidswap and PancakeSwap, Amnis Finance has unlocked new levels of efficiency and usability for amAPT and stAPT by allowing users to utilize their staked APT across lending, trading and yield farming. The protocol has succeeded by empowering both users and institutional players to maximize their capital efficiency within the Aptos ecosystem.

Unprecedented YoY Growth 

Amnis Finance has seen significant growth since its inception, cementing its role as a leading force in Aptos DeFi. Since its launch on October 2023, Amnis Finance solidified its dominance with:

  • 1,882.1% YoY growth—the highest among all protocols on Aptos—achieving a growth of over 28 million APT staked within the protocol in just one year.

  • Top 5 LSD projects by TVL, excluding Ethereum and Solana projects and among the top 20 LSD projects across all ecosystems.

  • 3.7M+ total transactions, ranking as the #1 LSD project by TVL on Aptos

  • 35M+ APT staked, reaching an all-time high in locked assets with an 8.30% APR

  • 417,000+ stakers are actively using the platform, a testament to its widespread adoption to‑date.

As it moves toward its next phase, Amnis is set to unlock even more opportunities for users across the Aptos ecosystem.

Road to TGE

Next up on Amnis’ roadmap? Its TGE, which aims to engage its community through a series of campaigns, rewards and innovative DeFi integrations designed to reward early adopters. 

Recently, the Aptos Foundation launched LFM—a new program designed to support market-tested projects that are gearing up for a TGE. As one of the leading DeFi projects in the Aptos ecosystem, Amnis Finance has joined the first cohort of projects supported through LFM.

Amnis users can take advantage of new utility and governance opportunities via:

  • Liquid Staking & Yield Opportunities: Users who engage with Amnis by staking and using amAPT and stAPT across DeFi protocols can secure a spot on the leaderboard for the upcoming airdrop.

  • Galxe Quest which participants can earn rewards in collaboration with top protocols like Aries Markets, Merkle Trade, Cellana, Panora, Wapal, Hyperfluid and Kana Labs. 

  • Write-to-Earn campaign wherein Amnis community members can earn weekly prizes for creating content about Amnis Finance.

By participating in Amnis’ TGE, users can earn rewards and boost their staking benefits with Aptos’ largest liquid staking community. 

The Future of Liquid Staking on Aptos

Soon, AMI holders will be able to participate in DAO governance, voting on key decisions like reward distribution, new integrations and more. This marks a major step toward making Amnis more community-driven and decentralized, giving users a direct role in shaping the protocol’s future. Plus, active participants may receive rewards for contributing to the ecosystem’s growth.

With its unparalleled growth, deep liquidity, and seamless staking experience, Amnis Finance is set to continue leading the charge in on-chain staking and DeFi innovation.
