How to kill two birds with one stone and maximize the interactive benefits of the Aptos ecosystem?
Original author: Alex Liu, Foresight News
The Aptos public chain was created by some members of Facebooks former blockchain team Diem after independence, raising a total of up to $350 million in funds. After a large airdrop on the test network, the Aptos main network has been online for more than a year and a half, and the ecological projects are becoming increasingly mature, but most of them have not yet issued coins. How can we layout to kill two birds with one stone and maximize the benefits of the interactive Aptos ecosystem? This article takes stock of the main potential projects of the ecosystem and gives a detailed interaction path.
Among the top 5 protocols in the Aptos ecosystem by TVL on DefiLlama, only Thala has issued tokens
Potential projects
Aries Markets
Aries Markets is the largest lending protocol by TVL on Aptos, and also the largest protocol by TVL in all categories. It has obtained the incentive activity qualification of Aptos Foundation. Currently, depositing and borrowing zUSDT and zUSDC (USDT and USDC introduced by LayerZero) in the protocol can obtain APT token subsidies with considerable interest rates. In addition to obtaining airdrops, it is also a good place for daily deposits and loans.
Aries Markets has launched a points system , where you can earn 1 point per day for every dollar of assets deposited, and 3 points per day for every dollar of assets lent. The way to participate is simple and clear: if you want to participate in the Aries airdrop, you need to register on the points page , bind your X (Twitter) account, and then participate in the protocol deposit and borrow.
Aries Points Page (https://points.ariesmarkets.xyz/foresight)
Registering with an invitation code will get you a 10% bonus. After binding your account and setting it up correctly, the page will be as follows:
Since the airdrop is based on a points system and activating the points system requires binding an X account to filter witches, it is recommended to only use appropriate semicolons. It seems meaningless to use a large number of semicolons to fight for the minimum living allowance.
Amnis Finance
Amnis Finance is a liquidity staking agreement on APT. Users can redeem an equal amount of amAPT with APT at a 1:1 ratio (need to wait for 1 month, or directly redeem it on DEX at a discount of about 1%), and further stake to obtain stAPT, which accumulates staking income all the time like wstETH.
Amnis Finance s retroactive airdrop activity is in progress. The ways to participate are:
-
Mint amAPT and pledge it as stAPT , accumulating 1 point per APT
-
Hold amAPT and stAPT in your wallet to generate points hourly. You can accumulate 1 point per APT per month.
-
Provide amAPT-APT liquidity on Pancake Swap or LiquidSwap. The amAPT in LP has a 3.5 times multiplier compared to the points obtained by simply holding it in the wallet. (LiquidSwap is recommended, no tokens have been issued, see the tutorial below)
-
Lending stAPT to Aries Markets and other reception agreements will have a 1.2x points multiplier. (Aries also has a points bonus for stAPT)
Multiple ways to participate in Amnis Finance
LiquidSwap
LiquidSwap is the first DEX on Aptos. Its project owner, Pontem Lumio, has raised $10.5 million from Mechanism, Lightspeed, Faction, Aptos Foundation and other well-known capitals. It is also the developer of Ethereum L2 Lumio and Aptos ecosystem wallet Pontem that supports Move language. In other words, the interactive LiquidSwap airdrop may also receive airdrops from potential projects such as Lumio.
LiquidSwap has also launched an airdrop registration page , and you need to register before you can participate in the airdrop. In addition to the Aptos address, you can also connect to the EVM address and Solana address.
Its airdrop page highlights that trading activity on LiquidSwap will affect the specifications of receiving the airdrop.
The official has set the following trading volume tiers:
-
1-20$ – coke
-
20-50$ – socks
-
50-300$ – ledger
-
300 – 3000 $ – Ticket to NBA
-
3000 – 6000 $ – Vision pro
-
6000 – 30000 $ – Vacation in the Bahamas
-
30000 – 100000 $ – Cybertruck
-
100000 – 10000000 $ – House
You can check your transaction volume and tier level on the LiquidSwap Dashboard page . You can also see the amount of liquidity provided, total number of transactions, whether you are an official NFT holder (very expensive, not recommended for airdrop purposes), and the amount of MEME held.
After providing liquidity in LiquidSwaps Pool, you can further stake it in Farm and receive token incentives such as APT, which also yields good returns.

Cellana
Cellana is the largest Ve (3, 3) model DEX on Aptos. It has already conducted token airdrops, but there are expectations for further airdrops.
If you have played with DeFi in the Aptos ecosystem before February 25 of this year or crossed the chain to Aptos through LayerZero between January 1 and February 25, first go to this page to check if you are eligible for the airdrop.
Cellanas airdrops are distributed in the form of veCELL NFTs, which cannot be sold immediately and require two years to be fully unlocked. However, they can be traded in the NFT secondary market, and you can receive an annualized 40% voting reward every week.
Cellana previously conducted the first round of the second phase of airdrops, which were airdropped to liquidity providers. The returns of LPs on Cellana are also very high, so it is worth a try.
One fish, many ways 1
Mint stAPT and deposit it in Aries Markets to borrow APT. Exchange about half of APT into amAPT through LiquidSwap, and provide amAPT-APT pair liquidity on LiquidSwap.
One fish, many ways 2
Deposit zUSDT/zUSDC in Aries Markets, borrow zUSDC/zUSDT, and exchange half of the borrowed stablecoin for another stablecoin in LiquidSwap to form a stablecoin pair LP and deposit it in Cellana.
