Altcoin Daily’s ‘Is Aptos the Solana Killer?’ Gets Myriad Answers

  • Altcoin Daily asks if Aptos is a Solana Killer; the crypto community reacts.
  • “It’s still too early to call it Solana killer,” states a crypto enthusiast.
  • Aptos fails to live up to the hype it created leading to the launch.

Following the Twitter post that Altcoin Daily, a youtube channel for daily news and crypto opinion, shared, there were many thoughts and opinions expressed by netizens.

But more interestingly, another user stated that Solana doesn’t need any killers as it was pretty efficient at committing a prolonged suicide each time it went offline.

Heralded as “Solana Killer,” Aptos seemed to have failed to live up to the expectation that it promised during the build-up to the launch of the mainnet. Specifically, Aptos vouched for a transaction speed of 160K transactions per second (TPS); nonetheless, as per the Twitter post shared by a user, Aptos had a lower TPS than Bitcoin. Some sources disclosed that the TPS was close to 4.

In addition to that, Aptos added insult to injury when its developers disabled the project’s Discord and Telegram channels which went against its core design principle to focus on developer and user experience, as mentioned in the Apto release.

However, the project said it was a proactive measure to “protect the community from scams during this window.”
