Aptos Move L1 Development

Aptos is a Layer 1 blockchain built on Move, the language originally developed for Meta's Diem project. It achieves high throughput via Block-STM, a parallel execution engine that processes transactions optimistically and re-executes on conflicts. Smart contracts are called modules, and data is stored as resources at account addresses in a global storage model.

What You Probably Got Wrong

AI agents trained on Sui Move or Solidity make critical errors when generating Aptos Move code. Fix these first.

Aptos Move uses global storage, NOT Sui's object model — Resources are stored at addresses using move_to, move_from, borrow_global, and borrow_global_mut. There is no object::ObjectID or sui::object::UID. When you want to store data, you move_to<T>(signer, resource) to place it at the signer's address. To read it, you borrow_global<T>(address).
Resource accounts are NOT regular accounts — A resource account is a special account with no private key, controlled by its creating module. You create one with account::create_resource_account(origin, seed). The module publishes to the resource account's address. This is how protocols deploy immutable, admin-less contracts.
Token V1 is deprecated — use Token V2 (Digital Assets) — The aptos_token module (V1) is legacy. Use aptos_token_objects (V2), which uses the Move Object model. V2 tokens are stored as objects at their own addresses, not in a creator's TokenStore. Collections and tokens are first-class objects.
@aptos-labs/ts-sdk replaces the old aptos package — The npm package aptos is deprecated. Use @aptos-labs/ts-sdk. The entry point is new Aptos(new AptosConfig({ network: Network.MAINNET })). Do not import from aptos.
Coin standard is NOT ERC-20 — Aptos uses aptos_framework::coin with generics. A coin type is Coin<CoinType> where CoinType is a phantom type parameter defined by the deploying module. There is no approval/allowance pattern — coins are moved directly.
signer is not msg.sender — In Aptos Move, the signer is passed as a function parameter. A function must explicitly accept &signer to access the caller's address and perform operations on their account. Use signer::address_of(account) to get the address.
View functions are explicit — You must annotate functions with #[view] to make them callable off-chain without a transaction. They cannot modify state. They are called via the /view API endpoint, not through transaction submission.
u256 exists but u64 is standard for amounts — Unlike Solidity's uint256 default, Aptos uses u64 for coin amounts and most counters. u256 exists but is rarely used. APT has 8 decimals (not 18). 1 APT = 100,000,000 octas.

const aptos = new Aptos(config);

Move Module Development

Module Structure

module my_addr::counter {
    use std::signer;

    struct Counter has key {
        value: u64,
    }

    /// Initialize a counter resource at the signer's address
    public entry fun initialize(account: &signer) {
        let counter = Counter { value: 0 };
        move_to(account, counter);
    }

    /// Increment the counter stored at the signer's address
    public entry fun increment(account: &signer) acquires Counter {
        let addr = signer::address_of(account);
        let counter = borrow_global_mut<Counter>(addr);
        counter.value = counter.value + 1;
    }

    /// Read the counter value at any address
    #[view]
    public fun get_count(addr: address): u64 acquires Counter {
        borrow_global<Counter>(addr).value
    }
}

Key Move Concepts

Global Storage Operations

// Store a resource at signer's address (signer must not already have one)
move_to<T>(signer, resource);

// Remove and return a resource from an address
let resource = move_from<T>(addr);

// Immutable reference to resource at address
let ref = borrow_global<T>(addr);

// Mutable reference to resource at address
let ref_mut = borrow_global_mut<T>(addr);

// Check if a resource exists at address
let exists = exists<T>(addr);

Abilities

// has copy — value can be copied
// has drop — value can be dropped (destroyed implicitly)
// has store — value can be stored inside another struct
// has key — value can be stored as a top-level resource in global storage

struct Coin has store {
    value: u64,
}

struct CoinStore has key {
    coin: Coin,
}

Access Control Pattern

module my_addr::admin {
    use std::signer;

    struct AdminConfig has key {
        admin: address,
    }

    const E_NOT_ADMIN: u64 = 1;
    const E_ALREADY_INITIALIZED: u64 = 2;

    public entry fun initialize(account: &signer) {
        let addr = signer::address_of(account);
        assert!(!exists<AdminConfig>(addr), E_ALREADY_INITIALIZED);
        move_to(account, AdminConfig { admin: addr });
    }

    public entry fun admin_only_action(account: &signer, config_addr: address) acquires AdminConfig {
        let config = borrow_global<AdminConfig>(config_addr);
        assert!(signer::address_of(account) == config.admin, E_NOT_ADMIN);
        // perform privileged action
    }
}

Events

module my_addr::events_example {
    use aptos_framework::event;

    #[event]
    struct TransferEvent has drop, store {
        from: address,
        to: address,
        amount: u64,
    }

    public entry fun transfer(from: &signer, to: address, amount: u64) {
        // ... transfer logic ...
        event::emit(TransferEvent {
            from: signer::address_of(from),
            to,
            amount,
        });
    }
}

Resource Accounts

module my_addr::resource_account_example {
    use std::signer;
    use aptos_framework::account;
    use aptos_framework::resource_account;

    struct ModuleData has key {
        resource_signer_cap: account::SignerCapability,
    }

    /// Called once during module publication to a resource account.
    /// The resource account's signer capability is stored for later use.
    fun init_module(resource_signer: &signer) {
        let resource_signer_cap = resource_account::retrieve_resource_account_cap(
            resource_signer,
            @source_addr
        );
        move_to(resource_signer, ModuleData {
            resource_signer_cap,
        });
    }

    /// Use the stored signer capability to act as the resource account
    public entry fun do_something(caller: &signer) acquires ModuleData {
        let module_data = borrow_global<ModuleData>(@my_addr);
        let resource_signer = account::create_signer_with_capability(
            &module_data.resource_signer_cap
        );
        // resource_signer can now sign transactions on behalf of the resource account
    }
}

Coin Standard

Creating a Custom Coin

module my_addr::my_coin {
    use std::signer;
    use std::string;
    use aptos_framework::coin;

    /// Phantom type marker for the coin — defines the coin type globally
    struct MyCoin {}

    struct CoinCapabilities has key {
        burn_cap: coin::BurnCapability<MyCoin>,
        freeze_cap: coin::FreezeCapability<MyCoin>,
        mint_cap: coin::MintCapability<MyCoin>,
    }

    const E_NOT_ADMIN: u64 = 1;

    public entry fun initialize(account: &signer) {
        let (burn_cap, freeze_cap, mint_cap) = coin::initialize<MyCoin>(
            account,
            string::utf8(b"My Coin"),
            string::utf8(b"MYC"),
            8, // decimals
            true, // monitor_supply
        );
        move_to(account, CoinCapabilities {
            burn_cap,
            freeze_cap,
            mint_cap,
        });
    }

    public entry fun mint(
        account: &signer,
        to: address,
        amount: u64,
    ) acquires CoinCapabilities {
        let addr = signer::address_of(account);
        let caps = borrow_global<CoinCapabilities>(addr);
        let coins = coin::mint(amount, &caps.mint_cap);
        coin::deposit(to, coins);
    }

    public entry fun burn(
        account: &signer,
        amount: u64,
    ) acquires CoinCapabilities {
        let addr = signer::address_of(account);
        let caps = borrow_global<CoinCapabilities>(addr);
        let coins = coin::withdraw<MyCoin>(account, amount);
        coin::burn(coins, &caps.burn_cap);
    }
}

Registering for a Coin

// Before receiving any coin type, an account must register for it
public entry fun register_coin<CoinType>(account: &signer) {
    coin::register<CoinType>(account);
}

Token V2 — Digital Assets

Creating a Collection and Token

module my_addr::nft {
    use std::signer;
    use std::string::{Self, String};
    use std::option;
    use aptos_token_objects::collection;
    use aptos_token_objects::token;

    struct TokenRefs has key {
        burn_ref: token::BurnRef,
        transfer_ref: option::Option<object::TransferRef>,
        mutator_ref: token::MutatorRef,
    }

    public entry fun create_collection(creator: &signer) {
        collection::create_unlimited_collection(
            creator,
            string::utf8(b"Collection description"),
            string::utf8(b"My Collection"),
            option::none(), // no royalty
            string::utf8(b"https://example.com/collection"),
        );
    }

    public entry fun mint_token(creator: &signer) {
        let constructor_ref = token::create_named_token(
            creator,
            string::utf8(b"My Collection"),
            string::utf8(b"Token description"),
            string::utf8(b"Token #1"),
            option::none(), // no royalty
            string::utf8(b"https://example.com/token/1"),
        );

        let token_signer = object::generate_signer(&constructor_ref);
        let burn_ref = token::generate_burn_ref(&constructor_ref);
        let mutator_ref = token::generate_mutator_ref(&constructor_ref);

        move_to(&token_signer, TokenRefs {
            burn_ref,
            transfer_ref: option::none(),
            mutator_ref,
        });
    }
}

Testing Move Modules

#[test_only]
module my_addr::counter_tests {
    use std::signer;
    use my_addr::counter;

    #[test(account = @0x1)]
    fun test_initialize(account: &signer) {
        counter::initialize(account);
        let addr = signer::address_of(account);
        assert!(counter::get_count(addr) == 0, 0);
    }

    #[test(account = @0x1)]
    fun test_increment(account: &signer) {
        counter::initialize(account);
        counter::increment(account);
        let addr = signer::address_of(account);
        assert!(counter::get_count(addr) == 1, 0);
    }

    #[test(account = @0x1)]
    #[expected_failure(abort_code = 0x60001, location = aptos_framework::account)]
    fun test_double_initialize(account: &signer) {
        counter::initialize(account);
        counter::initialize(account); // should fail: resource already exists
    }
}

Block-STM Parallel Execution

Aptos uses Block-STM for optimistic parallel execution. Transactions within a block execute concurrently. If two transactions conflict (read/write to the same resource), one is re-executed.

What This Means for Developers

Independent transactions run in parallel — Transactions touching different accounts or resources execute simultaneously.
Contention on hot resources serializes execution — If your contract uses a single global counter that every transaction increments, Block-STM will detect the conflict and serialize those transactions. Performance degrades to sequential.
Design for parallelism — Use per-user resources instead of global state when possible. Example: instead of a global TotalDeposits counter, track deposits per-user and aggregate off-chain.

Anti-Pattern: Global Hot Resource

// BAD: Every deposit transaction conflicts on the same resource
struct GlobalState has key {
    total_deposits: u64,
}

public entry fun deposit(account: &signer, amount: u64) acquires GlobalState {
    let state = borrow_global_mut<GlobalState>(@module_addr);
    state.total_deposits = state.total_deposits + amount;
    // every deposit serializes here
}

Pattern: Per-User State

// GOOD: Each user's deposit is independent — parallel-friendly
struct UserDeposit has key {
    amount: u64,
}

public entry fun deposit(account: &signer, amount: u64) acquires UserDeposit {
    let addr = signer::address_of(account);
    if (exists<UserDeposit>(addr)) {
        let deposit = borrow_global_mut<UserDeposit>(addr);
        deposit.amount = deposit.amount + amount;
    } else {
        move_to(account, UserDeposit { amount });
    };
}

Move Object Model

The Move Object model (used by Token V2) creates objects at deterministic addresses. Objects are distinct from resources stored at user addresses.

module my_addr::object_example {
    use aptos_framework::object::{Self, Object, ConstructorRef};
    use std::signer;

    struct MyObject has key {
        value: u64,
    }

    /// Create a named object at a deterministic address
    public entry fun create(creator: &signer) {
        let constructor_ref = object::create_named_object(
            creator,
            b"my_object_seed",
        );
        let object_signer = object::generate_signer(&constructor_ref);
        move_to(&object_signer, MyObject { value: 42 });
    }

    /// Transfer ownership of an object
    public entry fun transfer_object(
        owner: &signer,
        obj: Object<MyObject>,
        to: address,
    ) {
        object::transfer(owner, obj, to);
    }

    #[view]
    public fun get_value(obj: Object<MyObject>): u64 acquires MyObject {
        let obj_addr = object::object_address(&obj);
        borrow_global<MyObject>(obj_addr).value
    }
}

Common Patterns

Table Storage (Key-Value Map)

use aptos_std::table::{Self, Table};

struct Registry has key {
    entries: Table<address, u64>,
}

public entry fun add_entry(account: &signer, key: address, value: u64) acquires Registry {
    let registry = borrow_global_mut<Registry>(signer::address_of(account));
    table::upsert(&mut registry.entries, key, value);
}

#[view]
public fun get_entry(registry_addr: address, key: address): u64 acquires Registry {
    let registry = borrow_global<Registry>(registry_addr);
    *table::borrow(&registry.entries, key)
}

Timestamp

use aptos_framework::timestamp;

public fun is_expired(deadline: u64): bool {
    timestamp::now_seconds() > deadline
}

Indexer and GraphQL

Aptos provides a GraphQL indexer for querying historical data, events, and token ownership.

Network	Indexer URL
Mainnet	`https://indexer.mainnet.aptoslabs.com/v1/graphql`
Testnet	`https://indexer.testnet.aptoslabs.com/v1/graphql`

Key tables: current_token_ownerships_v2 (NFT ownership), current_token_datas_v2 (token metadata), coin_activities (transfer history), account_transactions (transaction history).

See examples/read-resources/ for full GraphQL query patterns.

MagicBlock Ephemeral Rollups Guide

A comprehensive guide for building high-performance Solana applications with MagicBlock Ephemeral Rollups - enabling sub-10ms latency and gasless transactions.

Overview

MagicBlock Ephemeral Rollups (ER) are specialized SVM runtimes that enhance Solana with:

Sub-10ms latency (vs ~400ms on base Solana)
Gasless transactions for seamless UX
Full composability with existing Solana programs
Horizontal scaling via on-demand rollups

Architecture

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│                      Your Application                        │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Base Layer (Solana)          │  Ephemeral Rollup (ER)      │
│  - Initialize accounts        │  - Execute operations       │
│  - Delegate accounts          │  - Process at ~10-50ms      │
│  - Final state commits        │  - Zero gas fees            │
│  - ~400ms finality            │  - Commit state to Solana   │

Core Flow

Initialize - Create accounts on Solana base layer
Delegate - Transfer account ownership to delegation program
Execute - Run fast operations on Ephemeral Rollup
Commit - Sync state back to base layer
Undelegate - Return ownership to your program

Prerequisites

# Required versions
Solana: 2.3.13
Rust: 1.85.0
Anchor: 0.32.1
Node: 24.10.0

# Install Anchor (if needed)
cargo install --git https://github.com/coral-xyz/anchor anchor-cli

Quick Start

1. Add Dependencies (Cargo.toml)

[dependencies]
anchor-lang = "0.32.1"
ephemeral-rollups-sdk = { version = "0.6.5", features = ["anchor", "disable-realloc"] }

2. Program Setup (lib.rs)

use anchor_lang::prelude::*;
use ephemeral_rollups_sdk::anchor::{delegate_account, commit_accounts, ephemeral};
use ephemeral_rollups_sdk::cpi::DelegationProgram;

declare_id!("YourProgramId111111111111111111111111111111");

#[ephemeral]  // Required: enables ER support
#[program]
pub mod my_program {
    use super::*;

    pub fn initialize(ctx: Context<Initialize>) -> Result<()> {
        ctx.accounts.state.value = 0;
        Ok(())
    }

    #[delegate]  // Auto-injects delegation accounts
    pub fn delegate(ctx: Context<Delegate>) -> Result<()> {
        Ok(())
    }

    pub fn increment(ctx: Context<Update>) -> Result<()> {
        ctx.accounts.state.value += 1;
        Ok(())
    }

    #[commit]  // Auto-injects commit accounts
    pub fn undelegate(ctx: Context<Undelegate>) -> Result<()> {
        Ok(())
    }
}

3. TypeScript Client Setup

import { Connection, PublicKey } from "@solana/web3.js";
import { AnchorProvider, Program } from "@coral-xyz/anchor";
import { DELEGATION_PROGRAM_ID } from "@magicblock-labs/ephemeral-rollups-sdk";

// CRITICAL: Separate connections for each layer
const baseConnection = new Connection("https://api.devnet.solana.com");
const erConnection = new Connection("https://devnet.magicblock.app");

// Create providers
const baseProvider = new AnchorProvider(baseConnection, wallet, { commitment: "confirmed" });
const erProvider = new AnchorProvider(erConnection, wallet, {
  commitment: "confirmed",
  skipPreflight: true,  // Required for ER
});

// Check delegation status
async function isDelegated(pubkey: PublicKey): Promise<boolean> {
  const info = await baseConnection.getAccountInfo(pubkey);
  return info?.owner.equals(DELEGATION_PROGRAM_ID) ?? false;
}

Key Concepts

Delegation

Delegation transfers PDA ownership to the delegation program, allowing the Ephemeral Validator to process transactions.

#[derive(Accounts)]
pub struct Delegate<'info> {
    #[account(mut)]
    pub payer: Signer<'info>,
    /// CHECK: Will be delegated
    #[account(mut, del)]  // 'del' marks for delegation
    pub state: AccountInfo<'info>,
    pub delegation_program: Program<'info, DelegationProgram>,
}

Commit

Commits update PDA state from ER to base layer without undelegating.

use ephemeral_rollups_sdk::anchor::commit_accounts;

pub fn commit(ctx: Context<Commit>) -> Result<()> {
    commit_accounts(
        &ctx.accounts.payer,
        vec![&ctx.accounts.state.to_account_info()],
        &ctx.accounts.magic_context,
        &ctx.accounts.magic_program,
    )?;
    Ok(())
}

Undelegation

Returns PDA ownership to your program while committing final state.

#[commit]  // Handles commit + undelegate
pub fn undelegate(ctx: Context<Undelegate>) -> Result<()> {
    Ok(())
}

ER Validators (Devnet)

Region	Validator Identity
Asia	`MAS1Dt9qreoRMQ14YQuhg8UTZMMzDdKhmkZMECCzk57`
EU	`MEUGGrYPxKk17hCr7wpT6s8dtNokZj5U2L57vjYMS8e`
US	`MUS3hc9TCw4cGC12vHNoYcCGzJG1txjgQLZWVoeNHNd`
TEE	`FnE6VJT5QNZdedZPnCoLsARgBwoE6DeJNjBs2H1gySXA`

Magic Router (auto-selects best): https://devnet-router.magicblock.app

Critical Rules

DO:

Maintain separate connections for base layer and ER
Use skipPreflight: true for all ER transactions
Verify delegation status before sending to ER
Use AccountInfo for delegated accounts in Rust
Match PDA seeds exactly between Rust and TypeScript

DON'T:

Send delegated account operations to base layer
Mix base layer and ER operations in single transaction
Assume account ownership without checking
Skip commitment verification before base layer reads

Products

Product	Description
Ephemeral Rollup (ER)	High-performance, gasless transactions
Private ER (PER)	Privacy-preserving computation with Intel TDX
VRF	Verifiable random function for on-chain randomness
BOLT Framework	ECS architecture for fully on-chain games
Solana Plugins	App-specific extensions for enhanced capabilities

Solana Plugins (New)

Solana Plugins are modular capabilities that can be added to your dApp to extend what's possible on Solana. Think of them as your custom toolkit: plug in what you need, when you need it.

Available Plugins

Plugin	Description	Use Cases
Verifiable Randomness (VRF)	Provably fair on-chain randomness	Games, lotteries, NFT drops
Real-Time Price Feeds	Up-to-the-millisecond market data	DEXs, trading bots, DeFi
AI Oracles	Call AI models directly from smart contracts	Dynamic NFTs, AI agents

Using VRF Plugin

import { requestRandomness, getRandomnessResult } from "@magicblock-labs/vrf-sdk";

// Request randomness
const requestTx = await requestRandomness({
  payer: wallet.publicKey,
  seed: Buffer.from("my_game_seed"),
});

// Get result after confirmation
const result = await getRandomnessResult(requestId);
console.log("Random value:", result.randomness);

Privacy with Intel TDX

MagicBlock enables privacy in any Solana program state account through Ephemeral Rollups running in Trusted Execution Environments (TEE) on Intel TDX. This allows:

Private computation without exposing state
Verifiable execution guarantees
Selective disclosure of results
