Odaily News Aptos research director Alexander Spiegelman wrote in an article on X that he didn't understand why Monad spent so much time plagiarizing Aptos' technology. All of this is open source, and there are already many peer-reviewed papers. Instead of hiding it, it's better to plagiarize it directly.
In response, Monad co-founder James Hunsaker said: "When you were still in diapers, I was already studying software transactional memory (STM) in the Haskell environment. BlockSTM is a simple extension of these things. I have never seen any Aptos code. In fact, if you hadn't published this nonsense, I wouldn't have thought of Aptos."
