Peak TPS, or Peak Transactions Per Second, represents the maximum rate at which a blockchain network or digital payment system can process and confirm transactions within a given timeframe. This metric indicates the system’s highest throughput capacity under optimal conditions. It is a key measure of scalability.
Context
Achieving high peak TPS is a central challenge for many blockchain networks aiming for mainstream adoption and efficient processing of large transaction volumes. Developments in layer-2 scaling solutions, sharding, and alternative consensus mechanisms are actively pursued to significantly increase TPS and improve network performance.
