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.
Ronin is a delegated proof‑of‑authority sidechain built for gaming, best known for powering Axie Infinity. After the 2022 bridge exploit, Ronin migrated to a 17‑validator set with hardware‑signing requirements and added zkSync‑powered zkRonin bridges for withdrawals. The chain supports ERC‑721 and ERC‑1155 NFTs and charges near‑zero fees denominated in RON.
