DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, December 10, 2025 (EZ Newswire) -- CertiK, a leading blockchain security firm, has completed a comprehensive security audit of the Apertum Layer‑1 blockchain in the Avalanche ecosystem. The audit confirms that Apertum operates on Avalanche without modifications to core consensus or protocol logic, delivering high-performance security and decentralization properties.
Rare and Exceptional Points Confirmed in the CertiK Assessment
1. Full Layer-1 Infrastructure Verification (Extremely Rare)
CertiK almost never performs a deep technical verification of an entire Layer-1 blockchain. Apertum received:
- Subnet registration validation
- P-Chain verification
- L1 conversion confirmation
- Consensus engine confirmation (Snowman++)
- Genesis, VM, and architecture validation
This level of infrastructure analysis is highly unusual.
2. Confirmation of Apertum as a True Sovereign Layer-1
Most projects claiming “Layer-1” status cannot prove it. CertiK confirms Apertum is:
- A sovereign Avalanche L1 (Elastic Subnet)
- Using unmodified Avalanche Subnet-EVM
- Running native Snowman++ consensus
- Fully independent from any other chain
Almost no new blockchain receives this level of recognition.
3. Zero Findings — No Critical, Major, Medium, Minor, or Informational Issues
Extraordinarily rare for any CertiK report, especially a full blockchain system:
- 0 Critical
- 0 Major
- 0 Medium
- 0 Minor
- 0 Informational
Perfect technical validation is extremely uncommon.
4. Live On-Chain Evidence of a Fully Functioning Blockchain
CertiK validated:
- Real-time block production
- Block height over 4.8 million
- Active smart contract executions
- Real gas consumption
- Active validator set
Many “blockchains” cannot provide this level of real on-chain activity.
5. External Ecosystem Recognition Across Major Chain Registries
