Aptos has seen a surge in transactions due to the release of the new tap-to-earn game Tapos Cat. The game has gained rapid popularity.
Former Facebook workers created the layer-1 blockchain platform Aptos, which passed a significant transaction milestone. On May 25, 115.4 million transactions took place on Aptos in a single day. This exceeded Solana’s daily total of 31.7 million transactions.
The increase in transaction volume established a new standard. Aptos overtook Sui Network’s previous L1 record of more than 65 million transactions. This was a significant margin of more than 50%.
The day also recorded an all-time high of 32,000 transactions per second (TPS) for users on the blockchain, said Aptoscan. This indicates a significant uptick in activity inside the blockchain ecosystem, highlighting the industry’s expanding momentum and adoption.
The new tap-to-earn game Tapos Cat is to blame for the recent spike in Aptos transaction activity. The game gained rapid popularity. Tapos Cat handled ten million transactions on its first day of operation on the mainnet. This increased activity on the platform.
Users can earn $HEART tokens in Tapos Cat by ‘tickling’ a virtual cat. The design of the game permits several transactions. The game is free for the first seventy-two hours. This invites players to sign up and enjoy themselves at no extra expense.
Aptos has maintained success rates and gas fees in spite of increased transaction volumes. The aggregator functionality is what causes this stability. Many transactions get processed by the aggregator, ensuring a smooth and effective user experience.
The CEO of Helius Labs is skeptical of Tapos Cat’s durability and usefulness. He queries the emphasis placed on click-and-buy interactions in the game. He thinks that instead of meeting user demands, this artificially inflates data.
At first glance, Tapos Cat might not appear to have a clear goal. Supporters of Aptos believe tat the project is essential to engineering. They think it shows how resilient and expandable the Aptos network is. This opens the door for more advancements.
Aptos Labs commits to making decentralized assets accessible to billions of people. The group unveiled its newest international advisors on May 9. David Lawee, a former Google vice president of corporate development, is one of them.
Aptos Labs and Atomrigs Lab rvealed intensions to deploy T wallet, a Web3 wallet service, in November 2023. This is being done in collaboration with SK Telecom, a South Korean telecom provider (SKT).
