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.
Monad is an Ethereum-compatible Layer-1 focused on high throughput, low fees and scalable decentralization. Its architecture targets 10,000 TPS with sub-second finality while preserving bytecode-level EVM compatibility, so Solidity contracts, wallets and infrastructure can work without major rewrites. The MON token is tracked by CoinGecko as the network's associated asset.
