Starknet Stack Achieves 7000+ TPS with Ethereum Settlement
馃殌 7000 TPS Changes Everything
The SN Stack has reached a significant technical milestone with over 7,000 transactions per second (TPS) while maintaining Ethereum settlement security. This represents substantial progress from earlier performance metrics:
- Speed: Reduced confirmation times to ~2 seconds via Bolt upgrade
- Cost: Optimizations and EIP4844 implementation made Starknet the most affordable Validity Rollup
- Scalability: TPS increased from 250-500 to 7,000+
Finternet Labs has successfully tested the infrastructure, which is specifically designed to meet institutional requirements.

An appchain with 7,000+ TPS capacity, constant optimizations, and Ethereum settlement, that鈥檚 what the SN Stack delivers today. Exactly the kind of infra institutions need. Finternet Labs gave it a try, you should too.
Institutional finance demands throughput, transparency, and provability at scale. We鈥檝e spent six months working with @finternet_org Labs ideating and benchmarking a verifiable stack that solves this, and recently we proved and settled 7.5k TPS on Ethereum. Here鈥檚 why this
