ETHEREUM ECOSYSTEM HITS 19,000 TPS AS ZK ROLLUPS GO LIVE
Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter
Ethereum's ecosystem just reached a record 19,083 transactions per second (TPS), driven primarily by high-performance ZK rollups like Lighter, which alone contributed 4,782 TPS. Other major contributors include Base (139.8 TPS), Arbitrum (75 TPS), and Unichain (35.7 TPS), bringing total live throughput to over 5,100 TPS at press time. What was once dismissed as “ETH maxi fantasy” - scalable, secure ZK rollups - is now a reality in production, marking the arrival of Ethereum's high-throughput era.
