The beautiful sunset I saw a few days ago is shared with you, hehe. 🥰 〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️ Let's talk about the new situation of Aptos @Aptos in the RWA field last time, Aptos has made a lot of moves in the RWA field recently, I think it's worth talking about it alone. 🤔 aptos now has a total on-chain RWA scale of over $540 million, ranking among the top three in the world. More importantly, today's official tweet also mentioned that traditional financial giants such as BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, and Apollo are moving funds and credit products to Aptos to test the waters. 🌟 The project lineup is also quite interesting: ▪️PACT Protocol has contributed over $300 million in assets, making it the largest RWA protocol on Aptos. ▪️BlackRock's BUIDL, Franklin's BENJI, and Apollo's ACRED Fund have all chosen Aptos to go on-chain. ▪️ Innovative players such as Libre Capital, Ondo Finance are also launching diversified products. Why Aptos? From a technical point of view, it does offer a lot of advantages: low fees, <1 second finality, high throughput, and the security and compliance-friendly standards of the Move language do make it more attractive to institutional and financial assets. My personal feeling is that Aptos is not just "following the trend" in RWA, but really starting to connect the chain with traditional finance. #aptos #RWA

🧵Why hasn't Blockchain 3.0 emerged after Bitcoin and Ethereum? One of the recent thoughts I've been having is, "Has there ever been a Blockchain 3.0?" I wanted to pose the question of why industry people feel that the market isn't progressing and feels stagnant, and why a Blockchain 3.0 that most people could agree on hasn't emerged in over a decade since Ethereum. 🧵 Blockchain 1.0: Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System - An innovative technology that doesn't require existing financial networks. - No identity is needed, and no intermediaries are required. - Based on trust, Bitcoin is recognized as an attractive asset in terms of value storage. - There are issues like cost and speed, but I don't think that diminishes Bitcoin's value. 🧵 Blockchain 2.0: Ethereum: A Next-Generation Smart Contract and Decentralized Application Platform - Introduced smart contract technology, pioneering new areas like token issuance and DApps that were impossible on the Bitcoin blockchain. - However, I think it is struggling to transition to a stage where ETH is recognized as an asset. (Staking ETFs seem to be key.) - The introduction of Layer 2 aimed to solve cost and speed issues, but it hasn't yet established itself. - I believe it's a choice to maintain the unique value of the mainnet, and given that there are situations where it returns from L1 to L2, I think we need to keep watching. - It's a time to prove the choice of PoS and the recognition of staking, as well as the L2 play. 🧵Does Blockchain 3.0 exist? Solana, Sui, Hyperliquid (high-performance L1?) - There are many cases that shouted Blockchain 3.0 but failed, notably EOS, Polkadot, Polygon, and Terra. Ultimately, if they can't prove themselves regardless of scale, they fade into obscurity. - So, is there really nothing after Ethereum? I think Solana, at least, has increased user satisfaction by focusing on the most basic functions of token creation and trading, calling itself a "decentralized Nasdaq." From a user experience perspective, I believe there hasn't been a chain that can beat Solana in the meme coin market. At this point, the Degen chain might be Solana. I also think that if Ethereum had chosen to enhance Layer 1 performance instead of opting for Layer 2, a different timeline might have unfolded. - The direction of Solana's decentralized Nasdaq is also raising questions and counterarguments about centralization and performance, and it's well summarized in a post by Ruth asking, "Can Solana replace Nasdaq?" Solana seems to be doing well and effectively utilizing the AI narrative, which is positive, but the question of whether it is Blockchain 3.0 still remains. - There are also chains based on the MOVE language (Sui, Aptos, Movement). I think this needs to be proven by the emergence of real builders or DApps that cannot come from other chains, as the innovation of the MOVE language is recognized. Personally, I still have doubts about whether it is truly innovative from a developer adoption perspective. - Ultimately, I think we are still proving the reasons for "why it shouldn't be Ethereum and Layer 2," and I believe we are competing somewhere that can satisfy the speed desired by users while being stable and Layer 1. The attached image is one I personally like from @0xBreadguy, indicating that the global demand for Bitcoin and Ethereum has been met, and now they are filling new demands. (The example was Solana.) It may be that we feel there is no new innovation because this demand has not yet been met? I also believe there is still an opportunity for competitors to fill this demand. - I think a representative competitor is Hyperliquid. They focus on fast trading of tokens (assets) without VC play and are successfully creating new plays, which is impressive. In some ways, it might be closer to a more decentralized Nasdaq...? Of course, Solana is in a more dominant position as the market leader, but if successes like HyperEVM and HIP-3 are achieved, who knows? - Layer 2 seems to be positioning itself as chains with clear purposes like DeFi, entertainment, and RWA after Arbitrum and Base. I feel that we haven't yet reached a stage where we truly believe Layer 2 is necessary. I wonder if high-performance Layer 1 will find opportunities when it feels the limits of demand. (I think Layer 2 needs to be sharper.) I don't know how Blockchain 3.0 will emerge or be recognized, but I hope to see teams that are genuinely excited about making innovations, in addition to teams solving existing problems, appearing more often these days 🙏 #Bitcoin #Ethereum #Solana #Innovation

Dive deeper into Aptos

Throughout 2022, the Layer 1 protocol landscape witnessed significant advancements. Ethereum's shift to Proof of Stake (PoS) and the NFT boom shed light on blockchain limitations under heightened demand. Amidst the increasing adoption of cryptocurrencies, ensuring resilient data protection and security infrastructure has become imperative, particularly given the surge in online vulnerabilities. 

Addressing these concerns, Aptos emerges as a promising contender. Leveraging its scalable, secure, and dependable network, Aptos has garnered considerable attention from industry developers.

What is Aptos

Aptos stands as a robust Layer 1 Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchain solution, emphasizing security, dependability, and user-friendliness. Built using the Move programming language, Aptos boasts an array of advanced features, with its mainnet, "Aptos Autumn," making its debut on October 17, 2022. 

Aptos operates through three fundamental components: the Move language (a smart contract programming tool), the Aptos Move data model, and the Move module, all collaboratively enabling a transaction processing capacity of up to 160,000 transactions per second (TPS). 

Additionally, Aptos prioritizes security, employing robust measures to safeguard user assets and information. Currently, the Aptos ecosystem accommodates over 19 decentralized finance (DeFi) initiatives, spanning liquid staking platforms, decentralized exchanges (DEX), lending protocols, and more.

The Aptos team

Aptos has its origins in the Meta (formerly Facebook) Web3 initiative known as "Diem." The team, including its CEO Mo Shaikh and CTO Avery Ching, was initially part of Diem's development. Despite Meta discontinuing Diem in January 2022, the committed team decided to persist, leading to the establishment of Aptos. This dedicated group now operates under the name "Aptos Labs.”

How does Aptos work

Aptos utilizes advanced technologies and components to establish a fast, scalable, and secure system. The Move programming language, developed specifically by the Diem team and adopted by Aptos developers, plays a crucial role in the blockchain's functionality. It enables easier auditing and analysis of blockchain data, enhancing security and transparency. Additionally, Move has a virtual machine, a compiler, and a verifier called Mover Prover, designed for smart contracts.

Aptos employs the Move Virtual Machine (MVM) as its state machine, similar to the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). The MVM converts Move modules into bytecodes that the Aptos blockchain can interpret. 

Aptos’ mainnet currently operates on the latest version of AptosBFT (version 4). AptosBFT, short for Aptos Byzantine Fault Tolerance, is a consensus technique known for optimizing network processes. This protocol mitigates the effects of failed validators on the system's throughput and latency. 

On October 19, 2022, Aptos launched the Aptos Bridge. This feature enables the seamless transfer of Tether (USDT), USD Coin (USDC), and Ethereum (ETH), between the Aptos network and various decentralized systems such as Avalanche, Ethereum, Polygon, and Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Users can withdraw their cryptocurrencies from the Aptos network with the Aptos Bridge. However, a three-day transfer window is endorsed for such withdrawals to ensure network stability.

Aptos’s native token: APT

APT is the native utility token of the Aptos blockchain. It is the foundation for decentralized governance of the Aptos network, granting APT holders the right to vote on decisions that influence the future of the platform.

APT tokenomics

Aptos has a total supply of 1,034,718,849 APT tokens with no maximum supply. By September 2032, the total supply of Aptos will hit 1.5 billion APT. Aptos has a burn mechanism which reduces the circulating supply by destroying APT tokens from fees and reward blocks.

The token can also be used across the entire Aptos ecosystem. APT uses a standard implementation which improves its interoperability and compatibility across the Aptos ecosystem. 

APT use cases

APT functions as the utility and governance token of the Aptos network. It serves as payment for gas fees for transactions on the Aptos blockchain. It is also used to incentivize community contributions and security services of validators on the network. 

Distribution of APT

Aptos launched in October 2022 with an initial supply of 1 billion APT tokens distributed as follows:

  • 51.02 percent was airdropped to community members.
  • 19 percent was issued to Aptos core contributors.
  • 16.5 percent was reserved for the Aptos Foundation.
  • 13.48 percent was allocated to investors.

The road ahead for Aptos

The Aptos team has announced that the fifth and latest version of AptosBFT is under development and will be released in a future upgrade to increase the scalability of the network to support the development of more decentralized applications (dApp). In addition, Aptos is now working with Mastercard to build a decentralized infrastructure for on-chain identity and payments.
