About Aptos (APT)
Aptos (APT) launched its mainnet in October 2022, founded by Mo Shaikh and Avery Ching, both formerly leaders of the Diem blockchain project at Meta (Facebook).

Aptos uses the Move programming language originally developed for Diem. APT is the native token used for staking, governance, and gas fees, and is widely listed across major exchanges.
Aptos Technology
Aptos uses AptosBFT, a Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus derived from HotStuff that provides single-block finality in around one second. The Move language was designed specifically for digital assets and provides resource-oriented programming with strong type safety, helping prevent common smart contract bugs. Aptos uses a Block-STM execution engine that processes transactions in parallel across multiple cores. Quorum Store improves data dissemination, helping the network handle high throughput.
