Aptos (APTS) just hit a major checkpoint in U.S. markets—the first regulated futures contract for the asset launched, opening doors to institutional participation and clearing a significant regulatory hurdle. This move satisfies key SEC requirements and sets the stage for what could be next: an Aptos ETF. When foundational infrastructure gets this solid, everything that builds on top becomes possible. It's the kind of step that transforms market access from niche to mainstream.
