It opens with a bar chart titled "Top 10 projects by block time," showing Aptos leading at 90ms with a median of 2.0s, alongside competitors like Sui, SuiBNB, and Solana. A "Why Aptos?" slide highlights features like "Block-STM" parallel execution, sub-second finality (~0.125s), and the Move VM, which the speaker contrasts with slower networks like Bitcoin's ten-minute block times. The video concludes with a dramatic yellow text splash reading "> 10x FASTER" above a financial disclaimer. > > "The global trading engine needs speed and a place for liquidity to move. @Aptos provides the speed. Decibel turns it into markets. [Spoken audio]: So where everything that Aptos is doing is building towards, you know, high-frequency trading and the global trading engine decibel is positioned to be on top of that layer and enable as many traders and execution as possible. If you look at Aptos, everything that they've been building for on the blockchain side is for this throughput of transactions and this throughput of on-chain activity. And as the Aptos team has kept pushing for the most optimized high frequency trading chain and kind of this global trading engine. Decibel is the application, the exchange layer on top of that to utilize that throughput. And when you look at Aptos compared to other chains as well, the low latency and low block times is really key for any trading infrastructure. So other chains might have 12 second block times. Bitcoin as everyone's familiar with has 10 minute block times. that doesn't enable the actual price discovery and trading activity that you need. You really need as fast as possible on chain activity. And when we're looking at Aptos' block times currently, they're down to 30, 40 milliseconds compared to some other block chains which might be 200, 400 milliseconds. So everything that Aptos is doing is building towards high frequency trading and the global trading engine. Decibel is positioned to be on top of that layer and enable as many traders and execution as possible." ### Post #3 by @crypt0_me > **Author:** CRYPT0 ME ([@crypt0_me](https://x.com/crypt0_me)) > **Metrics:** 19 likes · 1 retweets · 9 comments · 2.6K views > **Posted:** 2026-05-23T10:15:45+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/crypt0_me/status/2058129752238833728](https://x.com/crypt0_me/status/2058129752238833728) > > "$APT I quietly accumulated it throughout the past period after the drop.

It was sharper than APT, because it hit the sub-range target. Shorting it is better than others on the larger timeframes, and as long as the price is above the red line, it's considered good.
