The creator of blockchain layer-1 Aptos (APT), Mo Shaikh, believes that the next wave of crypto adoption will be triggered by four industries in particular: gaming, entertainment, social media and finance. In an interview with Raoul Pal, Shaikh says that his project is focusing on these four sectors because they stand to benefit the most from the integration of high throughput blockchain technology.

Starting from gaming, it uses blockchain-based digital collectibles with the help of on-chain randomization checkers to ensure that no one is cheating. Moving onto media and entertainment, Shaikh feels blockchain technology can help enhance a fan’s involvement by providing them collectibles as shareable memorabilia, proof-of-attendance or tickets that redeem prizes after they leave the event.

Shaikh is also confident Aptos can make an impact on finance. He believes the project can take advantage of its record-breaking transaction speed to open up greater opportunities of financial inclusivity. As well as DeFi (decentralized finance), it could help in credit scoring, enabling instant loan providence, exchange trading and many other aspects of finance.

In conclusion, it appears that Aptos has correctly identified the four industries that could spark the next wave of cryptocurrency adoption. As Shaikh points out, these industries have been identified due to the successful integration of high throughput blockchain technology – something Aptos has been meticulously training for. As the project continues to develop innovation in each of these industries, it can offer businesses and individuals unprecedented access to what could be their next major flavor of digital assets.
