Aptos fixes critical vulnerability that cost hundreds of dollars to exploit

The post Aptos July 12 Unlock: Why Low Dilution Still Counts appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The next Aptos unlock is right on top of us, and the numbers look small at first glance. Still, in a weak Layer-1 market where liquidity is thin and patience is thinner, even a low dilution event can move the tape. This walkthrough breaks down what’s unlocking, why the percentages don’t all match, and how to approach the day without getting chopped up by headlines. We’ll keep it practical. You’ll see how different trackers calculate “percent of supply,” what that means for sell pressure, and a short checklist for what to monitor into and after July 12. No drama. Just the moving parts that actually matter.

The app has disappeared from the Apple App Store, Google Play, and all browser extension marketplaces. The app remains available to all who had it already installed till August 2. Until this date, transfers, swaps, and dApp connections will continue to work as normal, along with seed-phrase exports. On August 3, the wallet would go into an export-only state where users will only be able to reveal and export their recovery phra
