The safest, most integrated liquid staking derivative on Aptos
Safe, sustainable yields
Integrated throughout DeFi
Convert to APT anytime
Autocompounding value growth
What is stAPT?
Ditto staked Aptos (stAPT) is a liquid staking derivative that represents Aptos (APT) staked with professional validators securing the Aptos network.
Users can deposit APT into Ditto in return for stAPT, which will automatically begin earning compounding yield while contributing to the security of the network.
stAPT will be a yield bearing index. What this means is that over time 1 stAPT will become worth more APT. For example, at launch, 1 stAPT may equal 1 APT, but 1 year later, 1 stAPT could be worth 1.05 APT.
Integrations throughout the DeFi ecosystem
stAPT will have a number of integrations throughout the DeFi ecosystem, meaning users will be able to use stAPT to participate in DeFi while still earning yield.
In particular, we have focused on partnerships with:
- Wallets
- Dexes
- CDP stablecoins
- Lending protocols
- NFT marketplaces

Sustainable yields
The yields powering stAPT come from rewards earned from producing Aptos blocks. Think of these like the treasury bond yields of Aptos. This makes them safe and sustainable, unlike short term yields that rely on token incentivisation.
stAPT can be converted back to APT with no slippage
Apart from swapping stAPT for APT on a dex, users will also always be able burn their stAPT back to APT. This means that users will always be able to retrieve the APT their stAPT represents.
This makes holding stAPT significantly lower risk than say stETH, because arbitrage traders will always be able to support the stAPT — APT peg via buying stAPT if it is at a discount and burning it for APT.
Top validators secure the protocol
With a new chain, there is always the possibility that things do not go 100% smoothly. For this reason, we will be working closely with the largest, most experienced validator companies at launch to ensure reliability, stability and safety. The council has been assembled — stay tuned for announcements coming soon.
