Aptos2026-10-12 13:19:45Aptos mainnet launches encrypted mempool for pending transactionsAptos has rolled out an Encrypted Mempool feature on its mainnet, according to an official post from the project cited by ChainCatcher. The feature lets users encrypt pending transactions before a block reaches finality. Under the design described by Aptos, the transaction’s called function and input data stay encrypted until execution, while the sender address and fee information remain publicly visible. Aptos said the feature is aimed at three groups: institutions that want to avoid exposing intent behind large orders too early, traders seeking to reduce the risk of MEV arbitrage, and AI agents that need transaction inputs to remain private before execution. The update is now live on the Aptos mainnet.360
Monad2026-08-24 08:43:41Monad co-founder says BTX has reached live end-to-end encryption across two nodesMonad co-founder Keone Hon said Category Labs’ encrypted mempool project BTX, short for Batched Threshold Encryption, is now running with live end-to-end encryption across two nodes. He said the next target is to scale the setup to four to six nodes. Hon also said weighted quantization is being integrated into the code for DKG, or distributed key generation, while the Category Labs team works on a full implementation specification for DKG. He added that encrypted transactions are set to launch soon. The update was shared in a post on X and outlines both the current deployment milestone and the next engineering steps for the project.1470
