High-Speed Transaction

Definition

A high-speed transaction refers to a digital asset transfer that is processed and confirmed on a blockchain network with minimal latency, often within seconds or milliseconds. Achieving high-speed transactions is a primary goal for many blockchain protocols, as it is essential for supporting mainstream adoption and real-world applications requiring rapid settlement. These transactions typically rely on advanced consensus mechanisms, optimized network architecture, or layer-2 scaling solutions. The speed of settlement directly impacts user experience.
