Aptos Improvement Proposals (AIPs)

Aptos Improvement Proposals (AIP) describe standards for the Aptos Network including the core blockchain protocol and the development platform (Move), smart contracts and systems for smart contract verification, standards for the deployment and operation of the Aptos Network, APIs for accessing the Aptos Network and processing information from the Aptos Network.

AIPs are intended to cover changes that impact active services within the Aptos ecosystem. In lieu of another medium for posting community proposals, the AIP issue tracker can be used to store exploratory proposals. Though please consider first whether or not the Aptos-Core may be a better location for such discussions.

To vote on AIPs impacting the state of the Blockchain, go to https://governance.aptosfoundation.org/.
