Everyone says that if $RION opens weakly again, Aptos will be doomed. Can Hyperion revive Aptos? Those who have been in the game should know how massive the $APT airdrop was back then; it was easy to mint an NFT on the testnet and reap thousands of dollars in airdrops. However, Aptos, as the first MOVE-based public chain to have its TGE, has not performed well in the ecosystem after the TGE, and the price performance of $APT has also been somewhat lacking. In contrast, the neighboring SUI public chain has shown strong performance, with frequent big gains in its ecosystem. At the beginning of 2025, Aptos underwent a major overhaul, with most of the upper management replaced. The new team launched the LFM plan (providing up to $200 million in funding support for early projects that have not yet had their TGE), demonstrating a strong commitment to building the Aptos ecosystem. Hyperion, as the leading Dex in the ecosystem, has garnered a lot of bets from people and is jokingly referred to as the last hope for the Aptos ecosystem. ———————————————————— 📘Introduction to Hyperion Hyperion @hyperion_xyz, as the leading Dex invested in and incubated by Aptos, can rightly be called Aptos's favorite child. As Aptos's favorite child, Hyperion is benchmarked against the leading Dex Cetus of the same MOVE-based public chain SUI, bearing the huge responsibility of reviving Aptos. With strong support from Aptos's official backing, Hyperion has developed rapidly, becoming the largest Dex in the ecosystem just five months after its mainnet launch in February 2025, ranking 12th in trading volume among all Dexes in the past 30 days, with a total locked value (TVL) exceeding $130 million. ———————————————————— 💰What is Hyperion's reasonable valuation? Recently, Hyperion announced an airdrop query, and $RION should be launching in the next few days. We can analyze what the reasonable valuation of $RION should be by comparing relevant data. Compared to the leading DEXs of major public chains, it can be seen that the data closest to Hyperion is the leading DEX Cetus of the SUI ecosystem and the yet-to-be-launched Momentum. Cetus currently has an FDV of $105 million, and Momentum's last valuation was $100 million, while Hyperion, as the leading DEX of the Aptos ecosystem, I believe a reasonable FDV valuation should be around $100 million. ———————————————————— 🏦Tokenomics of Hyperion $RION Fixed total supply: 100 million tokens Distribution structure: 22.9% for the protocol treasury 8.1% allocated to existing investors (locked for 1 year) 20% allocated to the project team and advisors (locked for 1 year) 30% for liquidity incentives 9% for public distribution 5% for community incentives 5% for airdrops ———————————————————— Many people believe that Hyperion is Aptos's last hope. If $RION's TGE performs well, it will give Aptos a strong boost. If $RION's FDV valuation reaches $100 million, the corresponding price of $RION will be exactly $1. Hyperion will soon launch Staking, allowing $RION to be staked to earn $xRION, which will also provide some support for the price. Recently, the overall market has been performing well, and the timing for $RION's TGE seems favorable. I hope it performs well after the launch.
