The announcement also cited network figures for Aptos: a record total value locked (TVL) of $1 billion, 10 million monthly active users and 326 million transactions in a single day, according to the same Phemex report.
Decibel Perpetuals Added to Tria
The trading element comes through Decibel, which is described as a fully onchain perpetuals exchange incubated by Aptos Labs. According to a Chainwire press release dated April 21, 2026, Tria announced a live integration with Decibel. The release said Decibel has been live on Aptos mainnet since February 2026.
The integration runs through Decibel’s Builder Code program. Per Aptos’ own write-up, every order, match and settlement on Tria’s integration executes onchain via Decibel’s order book, powered by Aptos. Tria’s own documentation notes that the Decibel trading account is separate from a user’s Tria spot balance, with a minimum deposit of $10, and that trading fees are the standard Decibel fee plus a Tria fee.
Decibel launched on mainnet in February 2026, as relayed by PANews citing CoinDesk. Its public testnet previously attracted more than 700,000 unique accounts, according to that report.
Neobanks that combine payments, yield and trading in one account have been an area of growing interest in crypto. For Aptos, the Tria deal adds a distribution channel to an existing user base rather than requiring those users to move to a new platform. Whether that translates into sustained on-chain activity for $APT will depend on how many of Tria’s users actually trade or hold Aptos assets.
