Aptos is a Layer 1 blockchain built with the Move programming language. This guide covers Aptos-specific features when using Dfns wallets.

​
Wallet activation

Aptos wallets are automatically activated when they first receive assets. The network charges a small fee for account creation, which is deducted from the first incoming transfer.
You don’t need to manually activate the wallet. The first transfer to your wallet address will create the account on-chain.

​
Transfers

Use the Transfer Asset endpoint for Aptos transfers:
  • Native APT: Use kind: Native with amount in octas (1 APT = 100,000,000 octas)
  • Fungible assets: Use the appropriate kind with the asset type address

​
SDK integration

For full transaction control, use the Dfns SDK with @aptos-labs/ts-sdk. See the Aptos integration example.
