Ditto provides the core primitive of Aptos liquid staking which helps users earn the native validation yield of the Aptos blockchain while still retaining the flexibility to leverage all their capital. This is achieved through the issuance of Ditto staked Aptos, stAPT, when users stake Aptos — which can be utilised throughout Aptos DeFi much like native APT.
Ditto staked Aptos (stAPT) is a liquid staking derivative that represents Aptos (APT) staked with professional validators securing the Aptos network.
Users can deposit APT into Ditto in return for stAPT, which will automatically begin earning compounding yield while contributing to the security of the network.
stAPT will be a yield bearing index. What this means is that over time 1 stAPT will become worth more APT. For example, at launch, 1 stAPT may equal 1 APT, but 1 year later, 1 stAPT could be worth 1.05 APT.
