On Aptos, stake is infrastructure. Staking APT has always helped secure the network and let users receive staking rewards. Now it can do more. Aptos has been shifting to performance-driven tokenomics, with supply increasingly tied to real network activity. AIP-146 extends that — letting stake itself do functional work. Back a transaction with significant staked APT, and you can unlock higher transaction limits: the extra capacity the heaviest onchain workloads demand — liquidations, complex DeFi operations, large state migrations, emergency actions. The more you stake, the higher your limits scale: 2x, 4x, up to 8x. Access is gated by the size of your stake, not open to anyone, and every request is validated onchain. Here's why that matters. Users shouldn't have to trust an off-chain market or order book to manage their funds and settle their trades. With fully onchain markets, they can verify everything themselves. Fully onchain means every operation runs onchain: liquidations, complex DeFi, risk management. AIP-146 gives even the heaviest of them more room to run, with staked APT as the key.
