Token Supply API Update
On December 12, 2024, the Aptos Foundation updated its current token supply API. This updated version of the API more accurately reflects the current circulating supply of mainnet by updating the circulating supply number as of the beginning of the current monthly period. The previous version of the API reported the circulating supply as of the prior monthly period. There have been no changes to the network’s circulating supply schedule and the network’s circulating supply remains consistent with the original tokenomics as published here.
