Alex Nguyen, CEO of VibrantX, shared insights on the origins and evolution of the Move programming language on Aptos. Here’s a quick summary:

  • Move was initially developed by Meta (formerly Facebook) after evaluating Bitcoin Script and EVM, aiming for a more secure and efficient smart contract language.
  • Aptos Labs and Aptos Foundation made Move an independent, open-source project.
  • Move enhances security with “bytecode” verification and the “auditor at runtime” concept, preventing bugs and vulnerabilities.
  • Aptos ensures backward compatibility, allowing seamless upgrades without disrupting existing projects.
