Aptos expands into commerce, payments and the real economy

Aptos (APT) is broadening its use cases beyond financial assets into the real economy, including commerce and payments. As one example, Daehong Communications, an affiliate of South Korea’s Lotte Group, recently launched L.Ticket, a commerce platform offering various event tickets, and adopted Aptos as its blockchain infrastructure. Use cases are also increasing in payments and finance. Dollar-based stablecoin OpenUSD selected Aptos, along with Solana and Polygon, as a founding blockchain partner for OUSD. In the RWA sector, BlackRock’s tokenized fund BUIDL, Franklin Templeton’s money market fund BENJI, and Apollo’s tokenized private credit fund ACRED are also being operated on Aptos, according to the report.
