what's Amnis Finance?
Amnis Finance is a liquid staking protocol built on the Aptos blockchain, designed to enhance capital efficiency for APT stakers. Users deposit APT tokens to receive amAPT, a liquid derivative that accrues staking rewards while remaining usable in DeFi applications like lending, borrowing, and liquidity provision. This unlocks liquidity for staked assets without sacrificing yield, supporting the growth of the Aptos ecosystem through seamless integration with other protocols. The protocol operates via a network of vetted node operators who secure the network and distribute rewards. Governance is decentralized through the $AMI token, allowing holders to vote on key decisions such as operator selection, protocol upgrades, and treasury allocation. Amnis emphasizes security with audited smart contracts and a focus on non-custodial staking, ensuring users retain control over their assets. As a core infrastructure layer, Amnis facilitates over $400M in TVL and serves hundreds of thousands of stakers, positioning it as a foundational primitive for Aptos DeFi. Its design draws from established liquid staking models, prioritizing scalability and user accessibility in a high-throughput environment.
