Knowledge reveals Ethereum layer 2 MegaETH hit community speeds of as much as 47,000 transactions per second in testing because the mission prepares for a stress check forward of its mainnet launch.
In an X publish on Monday, MegaETH stated it can launch a “international stress check” on Thursday, with an official launch to comply with.
“On Jan twenty second, we’re opening mainnet to customers for a number of latency-sensitive apps whereas the chain is underneath intense, sustained load,” MegaETH stated, including:
“Stress assessments solely matter in the event that they’re uncomfortable. We’re focusing on sustained, true TPS of 15-35K, totaling 11B transactions throughout 7 days.”
The stress check will embrace the MegaETH group pushing the chain to the restrict on the backend, whereas permitting customers to interact with Web3 gaming functions stomp.gg, Smasher, and Crossy Fluffle.
“On the backend, the group might be pushing a mix of ETH transfers and v3 AMM swaps by way of @kumbaya_xyz till we hit 11B. In the long run, MegaETH can have the most important tx rely in historical past throughout all EVM chains whereas customers frictionlessly play with the chain,” the group stated.
MegaETH is an Ethereum layer 2 optimized for pace over decentralization, with the mission touting it as “the primary real-time blockchain” that may be capable to course of over 100,000 TPS.
At the moment, the MegaETH mainnet is barely open to a restricted variety of infrastructure builders and functions. The stress check will see a restricted portion of the mainnet opened as much as customers. Within the X publish, MegaETH stated the official launch will comply with shortly after the stress check is full.

MegaETH hits 47,000 TPS
In accordance with an X publish on Thursday by Ethereum knowledge analytics platform growthepie, MegaETH hit a excessive of virtually 47,000 transactions per second (TPS) on Jan. 16.
“Okay @megaethyou have our consideration, we see you testing issues out. Over 45k TPS, that is extra transactions in 1 second than some chains have in an entire day. Excited to see this capability put to good use!,” growthepie stated.
MegaETH is seeking to hit 15,000 to 35,000 TPS in the course of the stress check, although the determine might differ as soon as it launches formally.
Different speed-focused chains, akin to Solana has a theoretical most of 65,000 TPS; nevertheless, real-world figures are nearer to round 3,100 TPS, in accordance with knowledge from Token Terminal.
