This analysis dives into whale activity on the Aptos blockchain over the past six months (September 2024 - March 2025), spotlighting large APT holders driving significant network engagement. Focusing on accounts with daily gas costs exceeding 10 APT, success rates above 70%, and transaction counts over 100, we exclude DEX-like addresses (tx_count > 1M) to isolate true whale behavior. With daily trends, gas costs, success rates, and holding periods, this dashboard reveals how whales—some accumulating over 700 APT in gas alone—shape Aptos’ ecosystem, offering insights into their impact on network stability and growth.

This line chart tracks daily gas costs (in APT) for top Aptos whales from September 2024 to March 2025, plotted on a logarithmic scale to highlight both modest (10 APT) and massive (e.g., 65 APT) expenditures. Key trends show consistent activity, with peaks—like one whale’s 65 APT day in December 2024—indicating high-stakes interactions, possibly tied to staking events or NFT launches. The cumulative gas for some whales reaches 704 APT over 181 days, underscoring their sustained influence on network usage.

This scatter chart maps each whale’s holding period (in days) against their daily success rate, revealing commitment and reliability. Most whales cluster around 150-181 days with success rates above 70%, indicating long-term engagement. A standout whale with a 704 APT total gas cost over 181 days maintains a success rate near 85%, blending high activity with reliability. Shorter-term holders (under 100 days) show varied success, suggesting newer or speculative players.

This bar chart ranks Aptos whales by their cumulative gas costs (in APT) over six months, using a logarithmic scale to balance visibility. The top whale stands out with 704 APT, accrued through daily costs ranging from 10 to 65 APT, followed by others averaging 100-300 APT. These high spenders drive significant network activity, likely fueling staking, DeFi, or NFT transactions, while smaller whales (10-50 APT total) reflect steady but less intense engagement.

Over six months, Aptos whales demonstrate robust activity, with daily gas costs ranging from 10 to 65 APT and a top cumulative spend of 704 APT over 181 days. High success rates (above 70%) and holding periods up to 181 days reflect both reliability and loyalty among these large APT holders. The logarithmic visualizations reveal a dynamic ecosystem where top spenders drive intense engagement—likely in staking or DeFi—while consistent holders bolster stability. For Aptos to sustain growth, encouraging broader participation alongside whale activity will be crucial to mitigate concentration risks.
