High-throughput settlement refers to the capability of a financial system or network to process a very large volume of transactions quickly and efficiently. This characteristic is vital for handling peak demand in payment systems and capital markets. It ensures rapid finality for transactions, reducing operational delays and costs. Achieving high throughput is a key technical challenge for many blockchain platforms.
Context
High-throughput settlement is a critical objective for blockchain networks aiming to compete with traditional financial systems. Current research and development focus on scaling solutions like sharding, layer-2 protocols, and alternative consensus mechanisms. The ability to achieve consistent high throughput will determine the viability of blockchain for widespread commercial applications.
