Meta’s (formerly Facebook) Diem blockchain engineers independently developed Move, a Rust-based programming language, for Aptos, a Layer 1 Proof-of-Stake (PoS) blockchain that employs it as a novel smart contract programming language.

1. The Aptos project is all about making blockchain faster and easier to use.

2. Aptos’s vision is a blockchain that brings mainstream adoption to Web3 and empowers an ecosystem of DApps to solve real-world user problems.

3. Aptos Bridge allows users to transfer ETH, USDC, and USDT from Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, and Optimism to Aptos.

4. Aptos uses two consensus protocols: Proof-of-Stake and AptosBFT.

Aptos is built using Move, a new smart contract programming language that claims to offer advantages over Solidity, the EVM-based programming language. This includes blockchain commands that can be easily verified, modifications to private keys, and the modular design of Aptos.

If you are looking to buy APT, you can check out third-party cryptocurrency exchanges like CoinSwitch.

1. Smart Contracts: Aptos supports the development of smart contracts. Developers can therefore build their own decentralized application on Aptos’ blockchain.

2. Blockchain: Aptos acts as a blockchain that can be used by developers but can also be important for end users.

3. Crypto Coin: When users want to make a transaction on Aptos, they pay the transaction fee with the APT coin.

• Upgradeability and configurability.

• Provides a better user experience.

• Helps implement unique technology design choices.

• Lack of tokenomics during its public launch.

• Transactions per second (TPS) are worse than Bitcoin.

• APT token distribution is highly centralized.

• You can invest and trade APT for just ₹100.

• Trade APT at a nominal fee.

• Easily manage your transactions and your portfolio.

In March 2022, Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) led a $200 million seed round investment in Aptos. Other crypto heavyweights like Tiger Global and Multicoin Capital participated in the funding round.
