【 Can we trust theoretical maximums? 】
Blockchain developers often boast high maximum TPS to showcase their platform’s scalability
@SonicLabs claims 400,000 TPS, but this is purely a theoretical maximum
In reality, its real time TPS is only 3.78 tx/s
Many people marvel at the 400k TPS figure, but honestly, this number is just a marketing catchphrase for Sonic and actually undermines trust in the network
Even major payment networks like @Visa rarely handle thousands of transactions simultaneously
Reaching tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of blockchain transactions would require unprecedented infrastructure demand, which is still far from reality
400k TPS?
Don’t be fooled by marketing numbers, look at actual measured data and real world usability
