Most chains scale by sacrificing something: speed, security, or decentralization. @Aptos is trying to scale without that tradeoff (1/6) 🧵👇 btw, this my newest meebit pfp purchase, putting him into my threads now

Aptos employs Move, originally developed for Meta’s Diem project. It’s a statically-typed, resource-oriented language that emphasizes safety resources can’t be copied or accidentally destroyed, helping prevent smart contract misuse Plus, Move includes the Move Prover, a tool for formally verifying smart contract logic, further boosting correctness and security Unlike many blockchains that process transactions sequentially, Aptos uses Block‑STM, a parallel execution engine. It leverages Software Transactional Memory (STM) to detect transaction dependencies dynamically and execute non-conflicting transactions in parallel. In benchmarks, this boosted throughput dramaticallyup to ~170k TPS for low-contention workloads! . This massively powers its speed and efficiency. (2/6)

Aptos uses AptosBFT, a Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus protocol tailored for Proof-of-Stake networks. Validators stake APT tokens, and blocks are finalized even if up to one-third of them are faulty, a standard safety threshold in BFT systems . Compared to traditional BFT, AptosBFT is optimized for efficiency and lower communication overhead, just better and more effective in a sense (4/6)

The @Aptos’ system design is modular and pipelined, broadcasting of transactions, ordering, parallel execution, storage writes & ledger certification concurrently This architecture maximizes hardware utilization and throughput across stages. & many use cases like nfts too (5/6)

so, @Aptos stands out by combining: + A safe, verifiable smart contract language (Move), + A high-throughput parallel execution engine (Block‑STM), + A resilient consensus layer (AptosBFT PoS + BFT), If you like what I am creating as content, please like tweet. Thank you!
