Movemaker and alcove launch US $ 200K open-source initiative to establish secure contract library for Aptos developers
Movemaker, Aptos’ official Chinese-speaking community, and alcove, the first Asia-based Move developer organization, have launched the Aptos Move Secure & General Purpose Base Library, an open-source initiative to standardize and strengthen the Aptos smart contract ecosystem.
The initiative comes in response to growing concerns over on-chain security and fragmented development practices in the Web3 space.
“ This project aims to eliminate duplication, improve security and accelerate dApp development by providing a trusted foundation for all Aptos developers.”
The initiative is open to all Aptos builders and will be governed through transparent, community-led development on GitHub, incorporating automated testing, formal verification via Move Prover, peer reviews and bounty incentives.
Backed by an initial US $ 200,000 in seed funding from Movemaker, the initiative will create a rigorously audited, reusable library of smart contract modules – covering critical areas such as access control, upgrade tools, DeFi primitives and utility functions.
The project aims to mirror the role of OpenZeppelin in the EVM ecosystem while leveraging the unique technical advantages of Move and Aptos, including resource-oriented programming, strong typing and parallel execution.
Movemaker is an official community organization authorized by the Aptos Foundation, jointly launched by Ankaa and BlockBooster, focused on developing and expanding the Aptos ecosystem within Chinese-speaking regions and committed to connecting developers, users, capital and partners.
“ Despite Move’ s inherent safety, we’ ve seen developers repeatedly rebuild essential modules with varying quality and minimal audit coverage,” said Kaito, Core Contributor, Movemaker.
