Layer one throughput refers to the maximum number of transactions that a base-layer blockchain can process and confirm within a given unit of time, typically measured per second. This metric is a primary indicator of a blockchain network’s fundamental capacity and speed. Higher throughput permits more users and applications to operate concurrently.
Context
Layer one throughput is a key area of focus for blockchain scalability, directly impacting network congestion and transaction costs. The situation involves continuous innovation in consensus mechanisms and data structuring to enhance this capability without compromising decentralization or security. Observing improvements in this area helps assess a blockchain’s potential for widespread adoption and sustained growth.
The Monad mainnet date sets a clear timeline for the parallelized EVM's arrival, intensifying the L1 throughput race and unlocking a new capital efficiency frontier for dApps.
