Aptos is a Layer‑1 written in Rust that uses the Move language and AptosBFT v4—a Diem‑derived HotStuff variant—to finalise blocks in less than 1 second. Its Block‑STM executor runs transactions in parallel and abort‑reexecutes on conflict, achieving > 100k TPS in public benchmarks. The 2024 ‘Quorum Store’ upgrade optimised mempool sharding and reduced latency under network partition.
BNB Smart Chain is an EVM network secured by Proof‑of‑Staked Authority where 21 validators rotate every epoch, offering 3‑second block times. Projects benefit from low fees (< $0.05) and a vast ecosystem seeded by Binance Launchpad. The 2024 Moran upgrade implemented the BEP‑336 blob transaction format akin to Ethereum’s EIP‑4844.
