The Aptos Foundation rolled out governance proposals on February 18, 2026, aimed at long-term fixes to its tokenomics. According to the official announcement, APT will slash staking rewards from 5.19% to 2.6% and will also hike gas fees by up to 10 times, with all fees paid in APT and fully burned.
