Solana ➡️ Aptos: Developer Guide to Getting Started

🌐 Aptos and Solana are both high-performance, low-fee blockchains with similarities in account concepts and design decisions. While many elements of Move will be quite intuitive for a Rust user, the developer experience can be quite different. Let's dive into it!

📜 A Quick Overview:
1️⃣ Rust vs Move: Compared to Rust, Move is specifically designed for smart contracts. This means a smoother, less choppy experience.
2️⃣ Optimistic vs Pessimistic parallelism: Unlike Solana, Aptos does not require developers to explicitly declare all the accounts that will be written to. The runtime will automatically detect the accounts that are written to on the fly.
3️⃣ Manual state rent abstraction: On Solana, developers are required to actively manage and calculate the necessary balance for state rent exemption. Aptos abstracts this away.

Developers can enjoy the Move on Aptos Advantage:
✅ Code like a single-threaded program and execute with full parallelism
✅ Just write the business logic. APT for state rent will be automatically included as part of the transaction fee

Want to make your Move? Get started with Episode 1 in the 3-part Guide to Aptos for Solana Developers on Aptos Learn ⤵️

NFTs are booming on Aptos 💪

✅ Speed
✅ Throughput
✅ Security

Plus: Technologies like Aggregators enable use-cases not possible on any other network.

A quick overview:
There are a total of 3.4K collections on the network, generating 1.8M in total sales and onboarding ~630K traders.

🗓️ In the past 30 days, 564 collections have been minted — with 12K users participating in 100K sales.

Solidity ➡️ Move: Starter Guide for Developers 🌐

👨‍💻 Developer activity is steadily rising on Aptos. More Move modules being deployed every week, along with a growing number of inbound bridges from other ecosystems.

Some builder FAQs:
❓What advantages does Move have over Rust/Solidity?
❓Where do I start and what kind of a learning curve should I expect?

For developers with experience building on Ethereum, understanding the difference in data storage and ownership is key:

1️⃣ Account structures: Each Aptos account contains both smart contracts & resources (data structures), compared to the delineation between EoAs and contract accounts on Ethereum
2️⃣ Storage: Move programs read from and write to tree-shaped global storage — compared to Merkle-Patricia Trie on Ethereum
3️⃣ Token standards and balance storage: Every token is a typed 'Coin' or 'FungibleAsset' with a single contract — with balances stored as a resource in the user's account.

This means:
✅ Low latency
✅ Predictable
✅ Secure
✅ Better parallel execution

📜 Recapping a record-breaking weekend for Aptos, driven by the cute felines Tapos:

➡️ ~325M transactions over 4 days
➡️ Sustained 2,000+ TPS for >24 hours, peaking at ~5,000 TPS
➡️ Gas costs averaged 0.000001 APT

🎮 Tapos is a viral clicker game that launched on Mainnet on May 23.

🐾 The premise was simple: 🐈 The more you "tickled' a cat, the more $HEARTS you earned — with speed boosts & other rewards with 1 tickle = 1 txn

In 48 hours, Tapos registered ~325M txns, with > 63K wallets 🤝

Here's the story of the "tickles" heard around the world 🧵
