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.
Sui employs an object‑based data model and Narwhal/Tusk DAG consensus to execute independent transactions in parallel, giving near‑instant finality. Programmability uses the Move‑based Sui language with object ownership, enabling upgrades without storage migrations. The network supports sponsored transactions, letting dApps pay gas on behalf of users—a boon for mobile onboarding.
