Backpack Wallet Now Supports Aptos Plus $50K in Incentives to Get Started
Aptos is Now Live on Backpack Wallet
Pretty excited to share that, complete Aptos integration just went live on Backpack Wallet.
If you've been waiting to get into the Aptos ecosystem without the hassle of switching between different platforms, this is basically it. You can now swap, bridge, collect NFTs, and explore everything Aptos has to offer directly through Backpack.
The fun part, rewards:
A total incentive pool of $50,000 has been allocated across three participating protocols to encourage early adoption and platform engagement:
Panora - $20,000 Allocation Participants will be rewarded for executing swap transactions on Backpack Wallet or the Panora dApp, as well as conducting cross-chain bridging operations.
Echelon - $20,000 Allocation USDC lending activities on the Echelon protocol are eligible for reward distribution from this dedicated pool.
Hyperion - $10,000 Allocation Rewards are available for users who provide liquidity to USDC-USDT pairs and contribute to APT trading volume on the platform.
How to get started
- Install/Update Backpack App
- Select Aptos chain, create or import account
- Fund with APT or USDC, try a small swap or bridge
- Join the listed tasks above to qualify for rewards
Why Aptos?
It's fast, the tech is solid, and the ecosystem is actually building real stuff. Having it integrated directly into Backpack just makes the whole experience smoother. No more dealing with multiple wallets or bridging headaches.
Whether you're already deep into DeFi or just curious about what Aptos is all about, now's a decent time to check it out. The incentives don't hurt either.
Everything's live now if you want to dive in.
