I'm excited to join the @Aptos 🌐 Collective and be part of shaping the future of Web3! ✨️ Let's work together to build a more decentralized, secure, and accessible digital world. 🌎🔐🔓 #Aptos #AptosCollective #AptosAfrica #Web3 #MOVE #Blockchain

If you ever get bored: - study a new finding - read a new report - read a whitepaper Embracing boredom is one of the best opportunities to progress.

SpaceX perps meet fully onchain execution. @DecibelTrade adds another non-crypto market to the lineup — perps on equities, commodities, and index ETFs. Built on @Aptos, incubated by Aptos Labs. decibel.trade/

187.8K APT burned in May. Permanently removed from circulation. 1.2M total burned since mainnet. 2.1B hard supply cap is live. Performance-driven tokenomics, in action, on the full stack for markets and machines. aptosnetwork.com/apt-supply

one smol order almost froze an entire perp market in march, i found a high severity bug in an aptos move bounty. the bug came down to one missing limit. the protocol checked price * size <= max sounds fine. but it did not check: price <= sane_max so an attacker could make size extremely small and make price absurdly huge the total order value still passed the check cuz huge price * tiny size = allowed notional then the attacker placed it as a reduce-only order. it looked safe. but later the protocol asked the orderbook “what price should i use for mark / funding / liquidation updates?” the orderbook answered with the attacker’s insane price. then the risk engine tried to cast / add that price during mark refresh. the number was too large. the math overflowed. the refresh reverted before it could update anything. so the market got stuck with no fresh mark price no funding update no liquidation processing the attacker did not steal funds directly. but they could freeze risk processing for that market. and in perps, frozen liquidations during volatility can turn into bad debt. as a security researcher wen reviewing order validation, don’t only check notional caps. check price caps too. because price * size <= max does not mean price is safe.

The march on @Aptos towards the Global Trading Engine continues as @DecibelTrade adds $COPPER and $NATGAS.

Google Lens was so ahead of its time, sheesh

My only fear is that we rely a lot on tech that was only reviewed by exp3rtz, not by curious nerds who spend all day thinking about how to break things.

Introducing Claude Fable 5: a Mythos-class model that we’ve made safe for general use. Its capabilities exceed those of any model we’ve ever made generally available.

a liquidation bug that paid a 20k usdc bounty came down to one tiny mismatch the protocol asked one function “is this liquidation profitable?” it answered yes, using the raw mark price. then settlement asked another function “ok, settle it.” but this one used the tick-rounded price. suddenly the same position went from profit to loss. the code hit an “impossible” state, reverted, and the liquidation became permanently stuck. as a security researcher wen auditing, trace one economic action end-to-end. if pricing, rounding, units, or fees change between check & settlement, that tiny mismatch can become the whole bug.

It’s been a wild year in the trenches. The entire market follows BTC and it follows the traditional stock market as well. Things are getting interesting with the upcoming SpaceX and Anthropic IPOs. I’m optimistic of the direction @Aptos is headed especially due to the tokenomics changes earlier this year as well as the positive changes in regulations and all the work being done on @DecibelTrade and @shelbyserves. Aptos does indeed have excellent technology, with its sub second latency, post quantum readiness and AI agent friendly foundations which make it an ideal chain for the present and future of markets and machines. The goal is to become the Global Trading Engine. And remember, things move in cycles.

hype is king but since everyone seems to buy L1s that keep going down or “private bitcoin” that can be minted endlessly and you’d never know, let me remind you: - Aptos labs has never shipped harder than they are today, years after TGE - Decibel (decentralized exchange), Shelby (global data layer), privacy (institution centered), post quantum readiness, and smart contract innovations that put security first - core Eng team from meta is still here, locked in to push crypto forward No one here has “made it.” There are no penthouses, no Pateks to see. We all have something to prove. See you at the finish line.

For those asking why I focus more on blockchain projects/DLT than smart contracts, it’s simply opportunity cost and attack surface. Blockchain projects are usually much larger and more complex than smart contracts. They have more moving parts, more interactions, and more room for mistakes as (particularly cos devs are constantly introducing new code changes) The probability of finding a critical bug in a complex blockchain codebase is often higher than in a typical smart contract. Many blockchain projects also don’t audit their entire stack. Audits may cover specific components, while large parts of the infrastructure remain less scrutinized. More complexity. More attack surface. More opportunities to find impactful bugs. It’s simply a strategy.

It just keeps getting better. To all my Move devs 👇

You may have seen Aptos’ latency numbers: <30ms block time ~250ms client E2E latency in Europe ~300ms in the US ~400ms in Asia Those are median / P50 numbers. We’ve now optimized the network further: even the slowest 1% of transactions see ~3x lower E2E latency, with fewer spikes. Faster for all.

Believe in $APT repricing? Accumulating since mainnet. Tech is elite with new great tokenomics and innovations constantly shipping. Usage remains one of the main challenges. Token performance has been brutal for years. Narrative is set. Time moves fast.

At 21, Ehsan went from nearly homeless to earning $1.4M in bug bounties in under a year. No degree. No formal training. Just 15-hour days in public libraries, ruthless discipline, and an obsession with finding bugs others missed. New episode with @MitchellAmador and @Ehsan1579

One thing users don’t always realize about Panora: It’s not just a swap interface. It’s the execution layer powering how DeFi activity moves on @Aptos - from routing and pricing to automation, APIs, and advanced trading workflows. Watch the Panora x Aptos clip 👇
