What is Aptos (APT)?

Launched in October 2022 by Avery Ching and Mo Shaikh, Aptos is a Layer-1 Blockchain designed for scalability, security, and reliability. It stands out by uniquely using the AptosBFT consensus mechanism supported by the Move smart contract programming language. This technology enables Aptos to efficiently and securely handle high-volume transactions.

Aptos differentiates itself from other Blockchains by using the Move programming language developed by Meta’s Diem team. This allows for parallel transaction execution through the Block-STM engine, significantly increasing transaction efficiency. The network can perform 160,000 transactions per second (tps), a significant improvement compared to traditional Blockchain architectures.

Aptos uses a modular design for transaction processing, achieving both high throughput and low latency. The modular structure covers several critical components: smart contract execution, consensus mechanism, parallel transaction processing, client interfaces, and validator management. This design provides flexibility and robustness, meeting users’ dynamic needs.

Aptos’ consensus mechanism, known as AptosBFT, combines Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT) and Proof of Stake (PoS) elements. Derived from LibraBFT developed by Meta, this mechanism enhances scalability and speed. Validators process transactions in batches, and clients can send transactions and verify proofs. Staking is central to the consensus process, requiring at least 1 million coins to participate, adding a layer of trust and security.

Aptos boasts impressive performance metrics. It achieves a transaction speed of 160,000 tps with a block finality time of less than one second. The network has produced over 100 million blocks with a transaction speed of five seconds per block. Transaction costs on Aptos are also quite low. A typical money transfer costs about 0.00055 APT, and DeFi transactions cost 0.005 APT, resulting in transaction costs of less than $0.01.

The mainnet asset of Aptos, APT, serves multiple purposes within the network. It is used to pay transaction and network fees and incentivize validator nodes. To become a validator, one must hold at least 1 million APT coins. Additionally, APT holders can participate in on-chain governance by voting on network upgrades and other important matters.
