DeFi Maximizer: The Coinbase Effect

by Arthur · March 9, 2023

Aptos has emerged as the fastest major blockchain network, with a median Time to Finality (TTF) value of less than a second. It uses a parallel execution mechanism to reduce latency and generate faster transaction speeds.

Aptos has emerged as the network with the fastest time to finality (TTF) along with Avalanche, according to a recent report from data analytics and research company Messari.

1/ Time to completion (TTF) is often overlooked.

As crypto continues to evolve, high value applications may end up prioritizing the fastest finality times, hence the networks prioritizing fast finality.

The report indicates that Aptos is the fastest major network, with a median TTF value of less than a second.

TTF measures the time from a transaction being sent to confirmation with a guarantee of irreversibility. It is a direct analogy to network latency and is considered a more accurate way of measuring the speed of transactions.

Apto’s blockchain uses a parallel execution mechanism, which helps reduce latency and generate faster transaction speeds. The low TTF, as highlighted by the Messari analysis, can make it accessible to a large number of users at the same time, especially compared to other large chains.

Aptos claims to be the fastest layer-1 blockchain, capable of processing more than 160,000 transactions per second (TPS). Despite Aptos’ claims, its average TPS has fallen steadily since launch, falling to 5.0 at press time.

Worth noting Solana has a slightly higher TTF range of 1-2 seconds. However, it is one of the fastest, considering Solana’s large node count, while Aptos has 104 nodes.

Aptos(APT) is currently trading at $10.67 with a market capitalization of more than $1.7 billion.
