Bitwise chief investment officer Matt Hougan is pointing out metrics for one Solana (SOL) competitor that he says are impressive.
Hougan tells his followers on the social media platform X that out of all the charts he’s looked at recently, the on-chain metrics of Aptos (APT) are standing out the most.
He shares charts showing rises in daily transactions and active addresses on Aptos, which have started picking up in the last several months.
“Every week I start my Friday by looking at ~150 charts. Sometimes, one or two stand out. This week, I was struck by these two from
Aptos.”

Aptos, which uses the AptosBFT consensus mechanism with the Move programming language, was launched on October 18th, 2022 and is down about 50% from its all-time high of $19.92. However, APT is up over 130% from its August 2024 low of $4.303.
At time of writing, APT is trading for $10.11, an almost 20% surge in the past day.
Hougan also gave Base, the Ethereum (ETH) layer-2 launched by Coinbase, an honorable mention in terms of blockchains with impressive metrics.
The Bitwise executive recently unveiled his three conditions for Q4 crypto fireworks, which included more Fed rate cuts, a favorable outcome to the November election, and “no major negative surprises” catching the markets off guard, like big hacks, lawsuits or locked coins unexpectedly coming to market.
“Crypto’s history is unfortunately beset by countless such surprises. Over the past few quarters, the release of previously locked-up Bitcoin from the failed exchange Mt. Gox and from government coffers has contributed to keeping us range-bound.
If we can make it through the end of the year without similar shocks, I’d expect new all-time highs and beyond.”
