Aptos (APT)

Faster-than-light trading: a space-grade trading engine that swaps any global coin at the lowest price in just 0.1 seconds. @Aptos , @katana , @flipster_io The term '0.1-second trade' refers to the entire process from the moment a user clicks or sends an order, through price verification, execution, and confirmation, feeling almost at the limit of human perception. In the industry, a latency of 30 to 80 milliseconds in a centralized exchange's concurrent environment is considered a benchmark. Looking at this benchmark, the actual speed delivered by the trading stack consisting of Aptos, Katana, and Flipster can be assessed by carefully examining the architecture of each component and the measured performance. Aptos is a layer‑1 blockchain designed for ultra‑fast execution, utilizing the Move virtual machine and a Block‑STM parallel execution model to process non‑conflicting transactions simultaneously. Its hallmark is that developers need not declare data accesses in advance; the runtime detects dependencies and secures parallelism. On mainnet, block creation time is measured at under 50 ms, and the total time from consensus to finality is reported to be under one second. In real‑world operation, average throughput is in the tens of TPS, while swaps or order fills on a single chain are completed in sub‑second intervals. This performance is very fast for a decentralized environment, but compared to the perceived target of 0.1 seconds, it remains an order of magnitude slower. Katana is less an engine that directly boosts speed than an aggregation layer that connects liquidity spread across multiple chains and protocols in a single step. Katana uses LI FI to combine same‑chain decentralized exchanges such as SushiSwap with bridge routes like Relay and Symbiosis, presenting optimal paths. The orchestration structure called Trails bundles bridging, swapping, and deposit into a single flow, simplifying the user experience, and includes paths to deposit assets into the Ethereum‑based Morpho vault via VaultBridge. However, even for swaps within the same chain, the user‑perceived execution time remains on the order of several…

2025 was a huge year for Aptos and @MoveClubIN🧡 This year we became Move Club India to bring our builders and founders closer and support them better. Thanks to YOU guys, this chapter came to life from day one! Let’s MOVE into 2026 with bigger goals and more wins together! https://t.co/uUaxxsjATY

You can’t fade this momentum. RWA protocols have surpassed DEXs to become the 5th-largest DeFi category, reaching $17B TVL as tokenized Treasurys, private credit, and commodities move on-chain. https://t.co/GzZrSWw7FF

SUI will announce private transactions in 2026 Adeniyi Abiodun (Co-founder & CPO at Mysten Labs, the team behind Sui) announced that private transactions are coming to Sui Network in 2026, with the official @SuiNetwork account replying “Privacy year.” This appears to refer to native support for confidential/private transactions on the network, building on Sui’s existing privacy tools like zero-knowledge proofs in Move, zkLogin, and related ecosystem features (e.g., Nautilus for verifiable offchain privacy and Seal for programmable encryption).
