While traditional blockchains struggle with just a few thousand transactions per second, Solayer's InfiniSVM has already achieved million-level TPS—this is not just a quantitative breakthrough, but a qualitative leap.
Imagine a scenario where tens of millions of people worldwide are simultaneously using blockchain for payments, transactions, and transfers, and the network remains as smooth as ever, with fees that can be almost ignored, and confirmation times so short they are imperceptible. This is no longer a scene from science fiction, but a reality being achieved by Solayer through the InfiniSVM hardware acceleration technology.
Why is a million TPS needed?
Bottlenecks of traditional blockchains
Current performance metrics of mainstream blockchains:
• Bitcoin: 7 TPS
• Ethereum: 30 TPS
• Solana: 5,000 TPS
• Visa network: 65,000 TPS (peak 200,000 TPS)
Such performance clearly struggles in the face of large-scale applications. When the number of users surges, issues like network congestion, skyrocketing fees, and transaction delays become painfully obvious.
Real-world demand
To achieve truly global applications, blockchain needs to reach:
• Million-level TPS: supports billions of users simultaneously
• Infinite scalability: linear expansion with user growth
• Ultra-low latency: sub-second transaction confirmation
• Extremely low cost: transaction fees approaching zero
This is the problem InfiniSVM aims to solve.
