Aptos Labs announced MonoMove, a proposed upgrade to the Aptos execution engine. In internal tests, some smart contract workloads ran up to 55x faster than on the current Move VM, while separate benchmarks showed up to 11x higher end-to-end sequential throughput. Subject to governance approval, MonoMove is expected to reach feature completeness by the end of 2026, with mainnet rollout planned for 2027.
