"Aptos Unveils Movemaker: A $Mln Boost for Chinese Web3 Adoption"

Aptos, a leading blockchain platform, has announced the establishment of Movemaker, its official community organization, with a focus on expanding its reach and influence in the Chinese-speaking region. Co-initiated by Ankaa and BlockBooster, Movemaker aims to accelerate the adoption and prosperity of Aptos in this key market by integrating resources, empowering communities, and providing technical support.

As a decentralized community organization, Movemaker has secured multi-million-dollar funding and resource support from the Aptos Foundation. With autonomous decision-making authority, Movemaker is designed to efficiently address the needs of developers and ecosystem builders in the Chinese-speaking region, further expanding Aptos’ reach and influence in the global Web3 landscape.

“The Chinese-speaking community is an invaluable part of the Aptos ecosystem and a massive driver of growth across all of Web3,” said Avery Ching, CEO and cofounder of Aptos Labs. “The launch of Movemaker highlights a deep commitment to this community and its role in driving Web3 innovation.” Ash Pampati, Head of Ecosystem at Aptos, added, “Movemaker is an ode to the Chinese-speaking Aptos community and represents our commitment to unlocking the limitless potential of incredible builders to launch global products.”

The launch of Movemaker marks a new phase in the Aptos Foundation’s strategic expansion within the Chinese-speaking region. With the comprehensive support of the Aptos Foundation, Movemaker will focus on two key areas: establishing an ecosystem grant program and strengthening Aptos’ community presence in the Chinese-speaking region.

Movemaker will manage and oversee the allocation of a dedicated ecosystem grant fund to drive the sustainable development of the Aptos blockchain ecosystem. This fund will prioritize innovative projects in areas such as DeFi, AI and blockchain integration, innovative payment solutions, and stablecoins and real-world assets (RWA). Movemaker will focus on supporting developers and projects from the Chinese-speaking region while also welcoming global teams interested in this market to join the Aptos ecosystem.

To strengthen Aptos’ community presence in the Chinese-speaking region, Movemaker will take on the responsibility of community development and outreach. Using Hong Kong as a regional hub, Movemaker will employ a multi-dimensional approach to enhance Aptos’ visibility and influence. This includes establishing the Aptos Space, a collaborative platform for developers and startups, as
