Aptos has just released a new version of its software, Aptos Node v1.13.1. It is asking all users to upgrade within the next 48 hours. If users use the Command Line Interface (CLI), they should make sure it is version 3.3.1 or newer. It is crucial for validators to upgrade by June 7th and for fullnodes by June 11th to ensure everything runs smoothly.
Aptos Introduces Custom Token Creation Feature
One of the most important new functions is the possibility to generate custom tokens. Developers can now establish unique parameters for the treatment of their in-game assets. This means developers can now set up specific rules for how their digital assets are handled.
It also allows them for more flexibility and creativity in managing these assets. This is especially beneficial for DeFi projects as now they can implement own actions that are triggered automatically when their tokens are transferred.
One of the other big features is the ability to create untransferable digital assets. This feature must be set when creating the asset and is what prevents ownership change of the asset. So basically, it empowers the developers to control the usage and management of their digital assets.

Enhancements to transaction handling that avoid processing of duplicate transactions and make operations more efficient. It has also resolved a bug that would delay system startup, fast uri-starting.

Lastly, this update brings a lot of great new features, and necessary fixes. To take advantage of these improvements and run the system smoothly it is recommended that all users upgrade to Aptos Node v1.13.1 as soon as possible.
