Aptos Labs Teams Up with Jump Crypto to Launch Shelby — Next-Generation Decentralized Hot Storage Network

BlockBeats News, June 24th, Aptos Labs has officially launched Shelby in collaboration with Jump Crypto. Shelby is a high-performance, decentralized hot storage network designed for Web3 real-time applications, covering scenarios such as streaming media, AI data, social platforms, and DePIN.

Through a global high-performance node network, fiber backbone, and on-chain programmable architecture, Shelby achieves cloud-like read and write speeds and reliability, breaking through the centralization and performance bottlenecks of traditional Web2 services. It features sub-second response times, pay-as-you-go billing, Token gating, DRM, smart contract permission control, and dynamic pricing capabilities.

Projects such as Metaplex, Story Protocol, and Pipe Network will be the first to integrate, further validating the potential of its cross-chain real-time infrastructure.

The Shelby developer testnet (Devnet) is expected to launch in the fourth quarter of 2025, supporting multi-chain ecosystems including Aptos, Ethereum, Solana, and more.
