"Aptos @Aptos launched an xBTC mining event in collaboration with OKX, and they’ve pumped the reward pool to a whopping $3.4 million. At first, I thought this was just another one of those “all hype, no substance” events. But after taking a closer look, the returns are way better than what I’d get from a 3-year fixed deposit at the bank. The APR for single-token mining might seem pretty average at first glance, around 4%. But wait—here comes the twist. Once you check out the liquidity pools, it’s a whole different story: xBTC–USDC: 60.89% APT–xBTC: 58.55% WBTC–xBTC: 34.94% What does this mean? Basically, if you’re holding BTC and already planning to HODL long-term, now you can earn an annualized “salary” of around 50% while also taking advantage of Aptos and OKX’s generosity. Plus, there’s a lending strategy too. You can stake xBTC as collateral, borrow USDC, and use it for other opportunities—earning even more. It’s like getting two freebies in one go. The event runs until September 25, so there’s less than a month left. The window of opportunity is small—miss it, and you’ll have to wait for OKX to show mercy again.
