Aptos, an emerging public chain invested by a16z, BinanceLabs and other top institutions and developed by the core members of Diem, a stablecoin project under Meta, released v1.0 version of the white paper “Aptos Region Cross-chain:
Secure, Scalable, and Upgradeable Web3 Infrastructure, explains the design concept and technical innovation of the protocol.
Best features of Aptos: Using the new development language Move and most public chains in order to be compatible with Ethereum using the Solidity language is different.
The most important feature of Aptos is that it adopts a new development language, Move, which was originally designed for Diem project. This language focuses on the security, scalability and upgradability of blockchain, and can achieve high transaction throughput and low latency.
Aptos now has more than 20,000 verification nodes since launching its testnet in March.
Data show that the current can achieve more than 10,000 transactions per second, ideally, the public chain can handle 160,000 transactions per second in the future.
At the end of June this year, Aptos launched a $200 million Ecosystem grant program to assist in the development of tools and frameworks such as DeFi and NFTS.
According to the official description, there are currently over 100 projects under construction, with use cases covering: wallet, DeFi, NFT, games…
And so on, mainly to infrastructure construction;
However, due to the fact that the Move language used by Aptos is not compatible with the mainstream Solidity language, developers need to rewrite the code in order to build apps on Aptos, which may slow down the speed of building an Aptos eco-app.
In general, Aptos has a deep technical development team and luxury investors, and its public chain development and testing continue to advance, these are the factors that it is expected by the outside world.
However, whether Aptos can meet these expectations still needs to wait for its main network to go online to further verify.
On August 1, Aptos announced that AIT2 had successfully completed testing.
Beta 3 will open for enrollment on August 19 and officially launch on August 30, ending on September 9, followed by a major rollout on the main network this fall.
The Aptos team says it plans to implement the main network code freeze on August 25 to prepare the main network line.
And releasing a long-running beta network 4 in the winter to better collaborate with the community.
