Solana Shatters Records: 100K TPS Test Run Proves Blockchain’s Scalability Dominance
Move over, Visa—Solana just flexed its muscles with a 100,000 transactions-per-second test run. The 'Ethereum killer' narrative gets fresh ammunition as institutional traders scramble to reposition portfolios.
Why this isn't just another benchmark
While Layer 2 solutions patch scalability like duct tape on aging infrastructure, Solana's bare-metal approach bypasses the middleware mess. Validators reportedly maintained stability even as transaction volume spiked—something that would make most proof-of-work chains crumble.
The institutional FOMO factor
Hedge funds still nursing FTX wounds are now forced to confront Solana's technical merits. With throughput numbers that dwarf legacy payment processors (and most Layer 1s), the chain is becoming impossible to ignore—no matter how much crypto skeptics clutch their pearls.
The catch? Mainnet reality rarely matches testnet glory. But for now, the SOL bulls have bragging rights—and Wall Street's attention. Just don't mention the 0.0001% transaction failure rate... or the VC bagholders waiting for their exit liquidity.
