Here’s what you need to know about APT, ARB, INJ, and TIA.

Apartment (APT) It is a decentralized blockchain and scalable Web3 infrastructure. Aptos’ parallel execution engine and modular design allows for high transaction throughput and low latency. APTOS is the blockchain’s native token used to pay network transaction fees, earn rewards for protocol security through staking, and vote on decisions affecting the future of the platform.

Arbitrage (ARB) It is a layer 2 (L2) blockchain protocol built on top of the Ethereum blockchain, allowing Ethereum transactions to be processed more efficiently. By increasing the transaction volume and processing speed that Ethereum can handle, Arbitrum has the added benefit of reducing transaction costs, known as gas fees, associated with using Ethereum and various decentralized applications.

Arbitrum also allows developers to create and run their own Ethereum-compatible smart contracts. It can be programmed to run decentralized applications that can interact with the wider Ethereum ecosystem without compromising the performance of the main blockchain.

Injection (INJ) It is a decentralized exchange (DEX) that provides various functions such as cross-chain margin trading, derivatives, and foreign exchange futures trading. Built on the Cosmos blockchain, an L2 application, Injective uses bridges to provide cross-chain functionality that allows traders to transact on other networks. The exchange is powered by INJ tokens, Injective’s native cryptocurrency, which is used by makers and takers to pay trading fees on the network.

Celestia (TIA) Celestia is a modular data availability network that securely scales with the number of users, making it easy for anyone to launch their own blockchain.
