Web3 isn’t waiting — and neither is identity.
As the Aptos network redefines Layer 1 performance and user experience, it’s time for digital identity to catch up. Snowball MNS has arrived on Aptos, giving users and developers a new way to communicate, connect, and transact — with a name, not a string of characters.

This isn’t just about vanity. It’s about clarity, security, and control in a space that moves fast.

The Problem: Blockchain's Identity Crisis

Every day, thousands of Aptos users face the same challenge: navigating a world of 64-character hexadecimal addresses. Despite Aptos's groundbreaking technology — delivering near-instant finality and processing capabilities exceeding 160,000 TPS — the network still suffers from the same user experience hurdle that plagues the entire blockchain industry.

A single mistyped character can lead to permanently lost assets. A moment's inattention when copying and pasting can result in funds sent to the wrong destination. This problem remains one of the final barriers to mainstream adoption of Aptos's innovative ecosystem.

The Solution: Enter Snowball MNS

Snowball's Modular Naming Service doesn't just solve this problem — it eliminates it entirely. By mapping complex wallet addresses to memorable @usernames, Snowball creates an intuitive layer between users and the underlying technology.

How it works:

  1. Register your unique @username on snowball.money
  2. Connect your aptos chain wallet
  3. Search for Your Perfect Identity
  4. Claim you MNS identity
  5. Start receiving assets and interacting with dApps using just your @username

No more copying and pasting. No more triple-checking hexadecimal characters. Just simple, human-readable identities for the Aptos ecosystem.

Aptos: The Next Frontier for Web3 Innovation

Why Aptos? The numbers tell the story:

Beyond the impressive statistics, Aptos represents the cutting edge of blockchain technology. Created by former Meta engineers, its Move programming language delivers unprecedented security and flexibility, while its parallel execution engine enables remarkable scalability.

"Aptos's technical architecture aligns perfectly with Snowball's vision for a more accessible Web3," explains Snowball's integration team. "Their focus on performance and security complements our mission to make blockchain interactions as simple as possible."
