Honored to be interviewed by @NorthwesternEng about @Aptos and my undergraduate / PhD studies - 9 years in total.
While some think a PhD is not that useful, I learned how to learn, the scientific method, and how to take on hard challenges.
As a bonus, I had Q clearance (i.e., top secret) - which was an experience! Blessed to have an incredible PhD advisor to take me through the process.

Play of the year pt. 2 - $KTA to top 30
Besides being backed by former 10-year Google CEO Eric Schmidt, who claims it is "orders of magnitude more scalable and efficient than existing solutions", (and has a personal net worth of $23 billion, which I believe Keeta may eventually flip), alongside being executed on by a team that ran one of the biggest outliers of the early days of alt L1 attempts..
Let's objectively look at what we have in the relative valuation bucket and in the top 30 in general in this space. Liquidity varies and varied MM shenanigans sustain some of these, but for the sake of perspective:
$XRP - the people that still buy this are primarily victims of marketing that don't understand marketcaps and think it's cheap due to per-unit cost. $135b circ, $230b FDV, arguably one of the most egregious entities in any market on the planet.
$SOL - a cool $100b, actual use and attention, though a degenerate cesspool. Still not passing stress tests when presidents decide to run scams on it, but definitely a handful of teams trying to cook up legitimate uses, may have a few real things functioning on it one day.
$ADA - lol, $26b circ / 33b FDV, also nailed the marketing vs boomers that don't understand marketcap, also not doing much many years in.
$SUI - 12b on circ, 36b FDV, of a relatively newer breed, I don't fully know what went into this one flying up as far as it did, I'm guessing some shenanigans were involved, but it's an easy relative valuation anchor for what is possible.
$TRON - SOMEHOW TRON is less scammy than many other things mentioned, due to actual stablecoin use in regions. Incredible. $25b marketcap.
$TON - in fairness, large potential distribution edges and arguably one of the most successful companies when considering ratio of employees vs outcome, hard to talk down. $7b circ / $15b FDV
$LINK - always has been fascinating, an outlier from yesteryear that's still evolving, and one of the few other projects Eric Schmidt had involvement in. $10b circ, $15b FDV.
$AVAX, $XLM, $HBAR, $DOT - just going to jam these together, stagnant dinosaurs unlikely to get it together, likely get outshined. All at or above $7b mcap on circulating supply.
I mean, we don't have to list them all, but $DOGE is at $33b, $SHIB as a second rate meme is at $8.4b, a DeFi play like $AAVE is sitting at $4b, $APT Aptos the Craptos at $3.3b / $6b+ FDV..
If we believe Eric's words carry weight, $250m on circ / $650m on $KTA is likely the best relative valuation play happening right now, and I don't see anything else with as much potential to breach the top 30 in terms of scope/ambition, credentials, and execution ability.

Throughout 2022, the Layer 1 protocol landscape witnessed significant advancements. Ethereum's shift to Proof of Stake (PoS) and the NFT boom shed light on blockchain limitations under heightened demand. Amidst the increasing adoption of cryptocurrencies, ensuring resilient data protection and security infrastructure has become imperative, particularly given the surge in online vulnerabilities.
Addressing these concerns, Aptos emerges as a promising contender. Leveraging its scalable, secure, and dependable network, Aptos has garnered considerable attention from industry developers.
What is Aptos
Aptos stands as a robust Layer 1 Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchain solution, emphasizing security, dependability, and user-friendliness. Built using the Move programming language, Aptos boasts an array of advanced features, with its mainnet, "Aptos Autumn," making its debut on October 17, 2022.
Aptos operates through three fundamental components: the Move language (a smart contract programming tool), the Aptos Move data model, and the Move module, all collaboratively enabling a transaction processing capacity of up to 160,000 transactions per second (TPS).
Additionally, Aptos prioritizes security, employing robust measures to safeguard user assets and information. Currently, the Aptos ecosystem accommodates over 19 decentralized finance (DeFi) initiatives, spanning liquid staking platforms, decentralized exchanges (DEX), lending protocols, and more.
The Aptos team
Aptos has its origins in the Meta (formerly Facebook) Web3 initiative known as "Diem." The team, including its CEO Mo Shaikh and CTO Avery Ching, was initially part of Diem's development. Despite Meta discontinuing Diem in January 2022, the committed team decided to persist, leading to the establishment of Aptos. This dedicated group now operates under the name "Aptos Labs.”
How does Aptos work
Aptos utilizes advanced technologies and components to establish a fast, scalable, and secure system. The Move programming language, developed specifically by the Diem team and adopted by Aptos developers, plays a crucial role in the blockchain's functionality. It enables easier auditing and analysis of blockchain data, enhancing security and transparency. Additionally, Move has a virtual machine, a compiler, and a verifier called Mover Prover, designed for smart contracts.
Aptos employs the Move Virtual Machine (MVM) as its state machine, similar to the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). The MVM converts Move modules into bytecodes that the Aptos blockchain can interpret.
Aptos’ mainnet currently operates on the latest version of AptosBFT (version 4). AptosBFT, short for Aptos Byzantine Fault Tolerance, is a consensus technique known for optimizing network processes. This protocol mitigates the effects of failed validators on the system's throughput and latency.
On October 19, 2022, Aptos launched the Aptos Bridge. This feature enables the seamless transfer of Tether (USDT), USD Coin (USDC), and Ethereum (ETH), between the Aptos network and various decentralized systems such as Avalanche, Ethereum, Polygon, and Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Users can withdraw their cryptocurrencies from the Aptos network with the Aptos Bridge. However, a three-day transfer window is endorsed for such withdrawals to ensure network stability.
Aptos’s native token: APT
APT is the native utility token of the Aptos blockchain. It is the foundation for decentralized governance of the Aptos network, granting APT holders the right to vote on decisions that influence the future of the platform.
APT tokenomics
Aptos has a total supply of 1,034,718,849 APT tokens with no maximum supply. By September 2032, the total supply of Aptos will hit 1.5 billion APT. Aptos has a burn mechanism which reduces the circulating supply by destroying APT tokens from fees and reward blocks.
The token can also be used across the entire Aptos ecosystem. APT uses a standard implementation which improves its interoperability and compatibility across the Aptos ecosystem.
APT use cases
APT functions as the utility and governance token of the Aptos network. It serves as payment for gas fees for transactions on the Aptos blockchain. It is also used to incentivize community contributions and security services of validators on the network.
Distribution of APT
Aptos launched in October 2022 with an initial supply of 1 billion APT tokens distributed as follows:
51.02 percent was airdropped to community members.
19 percent was issued to Aptos core contributors.
16.5 percent was reserved for the Aptos Foundation.
13.48 percent was allocated to investors.
The road ahead for Aptos
The Aptos team has announced that the fifth and latest version of AptosBFT is under development and will be released in a future upgrade to increase the scalability of the network to support the development of more decentralized applications (dApp). In addition, Aptos is now working with Mastercard to build a decentralized infrastructure for on-chain identity and payments.
