Aptos is positioning itself as one of the fastest and most reliable Layer 1 blockchains in the world — capable of processing over 22,000 transactions per second and finalizing them in under a second.
Built using the Move programming language, originally developed by Meta, Aptos prioritizes security and performance, eliminating common exploits like reentrancy attacks while offering a developer-friendly environment.
Transaction fees on Aptos are almost negligible — around $0.0001 per transfer, compared to $2–$4 on TRON or up to $20+ on Ethereum. The network has also set a record of 326 million transactions in a single day with 99.99% uptime since launch.
Aptos is not just about speed — it’s building real-world adoption. Major institutions such as BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, Circle, WLFI, Aave, Ethena, and Tether have integrated their assets or launched products on Aptos, with over $1.2 billion in tokenized RWAs currently on-chain.
In 2025, over $200 million in ecosystem funding — including grants, hackathons, and accelerator programs — is available for developers and startups building on Aptos.
The Aptos ecosystem now spans a wide range of DeFi protocols, bridges, wallets, and RWA integrations, offering seamless onboarding for newcomers and cross-chain users alike. From fast swaps on Panora and Thala, to staking on Amnis or Kofi, to institutional-grade assets on Echo and Ondo, Aptos continues to grow as a hub for performance-driven innovation.
As Aptos Labs puts it: *“Aptos isn’t just another L1 — it’s infrastructure that actually delivers on the promises of blockchain: fast, affordable, secure, and scalable.”
