Aptos, a layer-1 blockchain project, is on the verge of becoming a mainstream hit, according to its co-founder. Mo Shaikh, Aptos CEO, believes the network’s speed makes it perfect for payments, and their new cold storage wallet card could make crypto payments even more popular.
Faster Than You Think
Shaikh compares Aptos to tech giants like Facebook and TikTok, saying it’s at a “tipping point” for rapid growth. He’s confident that the card will make a big difference: “We’re very close to seeing card and mobile wallet penetration increase to over 20% of all cardholders or mobile phone devices.”
He’s not afraid to boast about Aptos’ speed and efficiency: “A transaction with this [card] is sub-second finality and a 1,000th of a cent for our transaction settlement. How will payment networks compete?”
A Big Bet on Aptos
Some crypto experts are already betting big on Aptos. BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes believes Aptos could solve problems for traditional finance and even surpass Solana in popularity.
Aptos is currently trading at $9.04, a slight increase in the last 24 hours.
While Aptos is gaining traction, remember to do your own research before investing in any cryptocurrency. The crypto market is volatile, and any investment carries risks.
