<p><strong>In the dynamic world of crypto, transaction speed is a key factor that influences the adoption and efficiency of blockchains. Recently, an analysis highlighted the fastest blockchains at the moment, revealing impressive performances and significant technological advancements.</strong></p>
<h2 id="h-solana-the-fastest-blockchain-in-the-crypto-world">Solana: The fastest blockchain in the crypto world!</h2>
<p>Solana stands out as the fastest blockchain, with a record number of 91 million transactions processed in a single day, on April 6, 2024. This feat represents an average rate of 1500 crypto transactions per second (TPS), which is 46 times faster than Ethereum and more than 5 times faster than Polygon. Despite these impressive numbers, Solana has only exploited 1.6% of its theoretical maximum speed of 65,000 TPS.</p>

<p>In second place, we find Sui, another non-EVM blockchain, which reached 854 crypto TPS in July 2023. Other fast non-EVM blockchains include TON with 175 TPS and Near Protocol with 118 TPS. On average, non-EVM blockchains are almost 4 times faster than those compatible with EVM.</p>
<h2 id="h-are-evm-blockchains-less-efficient">Are EVM blockchains less efficient?&nbsp;</h2>
<p>Among the EVM blockchains, BNB Smart Chain (BSC) leads the race with 378 TPS, followed by Polygon with 190 TPS. However, even combined, Ethereum and its top ten scaling solutions reach a total of 500 crypto TPS. This places them ahead of BSC but still behind Solana and Sui.</p>
<p>This data shows that non-EVM blockchains <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/research/publications/fastest-blockchains" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">currently dominate</a> in terms of crypto transaction processing speed. This could be attributed to a more efficient architecture! Or to less congestion due to a lower number of transactions on the chain. Nevertheless, it is important to note that almost all real TPS records were set in the last 12 months. This indicates a trend towards continuous improvement in blockchain performance.</p>
<p>While Solana and Sui lead the charge as the fastest blockchains, it remains to be seen how future improvements and planned updates will affect their ability to handle an even higher volume of <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/binance-optimizes-crypto-transactions-and-adjusts-step-sizes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">crypto transactions</a> without compromising network stability. With the constant evolution of blockchain technology, the race for speed is far from over.</p>
