Aptos Foundation and Aptos Labs announced that they will invest over $50 million to cover first-party products, research, protocol infrastructure, and a strategic fund for trading and AI partners.Aptos stated that Decibel has launched on the Aptos mainnet, with a cumulative trading volume exceeding $1 billion. The market capitalization of stablecoins on the Aptos network has reached $1.93 billion, and the scale of RWA has reached $1.2 billion, with asset management institutions such as BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, and Apollo Global already deployed on the network. Subsequently, Aptos will advance features such as crypto memory pools, FIX and CCXT connections, multi-leader consensus, and confidential perpetual trading.

The new crypto bank and non-custodial financial application Tria announced the official integration of the decentralized perpetual contract exchange Decibel on April 21.Through this integration, Tria users can directly access Decibel's full-chain central limit order book (CLOB) for perpetual contract trading within a single self-custodial account, without the need for asset cross-chain transfers or switching between multiple wallets. The official statement indicated that this move aims to reduce friction in DeFi operations, seamlessly unifying functions such as derivatives trading, yield aggregation, and cross-chain payments within the same interface.It is reported that Decibel is built on the Aptos network and will launch its mainnet in February 2026. During its testnet period, it recorded over 650,000 independent accounts and an average of over 1 million transactions per day. Tria currently serves over 500,000 users in 150 countries worldwide, with investors including Polychain Capital and the Ethereum Foundation.

According to CoinDesk, Decibel, a fully on-chain perpetual contract exchange incubated by Aptos Labs, has launched on the Aptos mainnet.The previous public testnet attracted over 700,000 independent accounts and 132,000 daily active users, with an average daily trading volume exceeding 1 million transactions. Before the mainnet launch, the pre-deposit activity promised over $58 million in funds, with about 40% coming from Ethereum and Solana users. Decibel adopts a centralized limit order book model, with order placement, matching, settlement, and risk management all executed on-chain. The protocol's default collateral is the US dollar stablecoin usDCBL issued by Bridge, a subsidiary of Stripe. Decibel plans to gradually increase spot markets, multi-collateral accounts, and tokenized real-world assets.

According to market news, the decentralized derivatives exchange Decibel, incubated by Aptos Labs, announced the launch of its protocol-native stablecoin USDCBL before its mainnet goes live this month. This token is issued by Bridge and aims to serve as collateral for on-chain perpetual contracts, retaining the earnings generated from cash and U.S. Treasury reserves within the protocol.Decibel stated that users will need to deposit USDC and exchange it for USDCBL for trading after the launch. The USDCBL reserves are supported by a mix of cash and short-term U.S. Treasury bonds, and the reserve earnings will be used for protocol development and ecosystem building, reducing reliance on trading fees and incentive programs. The foundation emphasized that this move is not "issuing another stablecoin," but positioning USDCBL as a core exchange infrastructure.

The Aptos-based full-chain trading engine Decibel has officially launched on the testnet. This protocol is jointly built by the Decibel Foundation and Aptos Labs, leveraging Aptos's high-performance infrastructure, aiming to provide a new execution and risk control framework for programmable and composable on-chain trading scenarios.The testnet supports several core capabilities, including: sub-second transaction execution, a full-chain risk engine co-developed with Gauntlet, programmable order flow, encrypted memory pool, gas-free cross-chain deposits, batch orders, sub-accounts, and real-time price data and risk monitoring based on Chainlink. In addition, the Decibel testnet has opened a backend trading API containing developer code for developers to build programmable trading applications and obtain transaction fee sharing through developer code. Users can now participate in testing, experience related features, and submit feedback and suggestions.

ChainCatcher news, the decentralized trading platform Decibel announced that its testnet will launch next month, with the mainnet expected to go live in the first quarter of 2026.Decibel is built by the Aptos Labs team and aims to create a high-performance on-chain trading engine that integrates features such as spot trading, perpetual contracts, lending, and vaults, supporting cross-chain accounts and an Encrypted Mempool to enhance privacy and trading efficiency. The platform will leverage the high throughput and low latency of the Aptos network, aiming to achieve a million transactions per second, and will promote higher capital efficiency and open liquidity through the development of a multi-collateral vault system in collaboration with Gauntlet.
