Aptos CEO Denies Shutdown Rumors in the Next 6 Months

Avery Ching, co-founder and CEO of Aptos Labs, responded to the community rumors that "Aptos will shut down its blockchain in the next 6 months," calling it "a foolish rumor." The X account that initially published the related news did not provide any official announcement or other evidence, stating that the information was merely "heard" and advised caution. Additionally, another community account claimed that Aptos has significantly laid off employees in the past year and is facing financial pressure, but this account admitted that the source of the information is "unreliable," and there is currently no public information to confirm the claims. The current public governance records of Aptos show network upgrade proposals and executed mainnet feature updates, with no official plans found for shutting down the mainnet.
