Waterfall Network Mainnet Surpasses New Record for Transactions Per Second over previous peak of 1,000

Waterfall
Network, the
most
innovative
layer
one (L1) decentralized
and
scalable
ledger,
today
announced
that
it
has
reached
a
groundbreaking
milestone
by delivering
12,778
transactions
per
second (TPS)
on
its
mainnet. 

In
just
three
tests: Test
1, Test
2,
and Test
3,
Waterfall
Network
generated
over
1,000,000
transactions
and
measured
how
quickly
they
were
added
to
blocks
as
fully
confirmed
on
the
network.This
is
the
first
significant
benchmark
for
the
Waterfall
Network’s
mainnet
since
it
launched
in
July,
and
this
number
eclipses
the
previous
peak
of
the
Waterfall
Network
testnet,
which
was
11,667
TPS,
by
over
1,000
TPS. 

Recent
benchmarks
highlight
Waterfall
Network’s
exceptional
scalability
among
both
EVM-compatible
and
non-EVM
Layer
1
and
Layer
2
networks.
Notably,
Waterfall
surpasses
EVM-compatible
networks
like
Monad
and
SEI,
as
well
as
non-EVM
networks
such
as
Solana,
and
Aptos.

This
statement
is
supported
by
data
from Chainspect and
other
verified
sources.

On
November
1
,
2024,
Waterfall
Network
successfully
completed
its
integration
with
Chainspect,
the
leading
independent
blockchain
analytics
platform! https://chainspect.app/chain/waterfall

According
to
Chainspect
(https://chainspect.app/)
 data,
it
is
the
most
scalable
EVM-based
protocol
available
today!

The
current
mainnet
is
supported
by
8,232
validators,
which
is
nearly
four
times
more
than
during
the
testnet
phase,
ensuring
efficient
and
reliable
transaction
processing.

“Waterfall
Network
continues
to
push
the
boundaries
of
scalability
decentralization
on
a
consensus
level,
joining
the
ranks
of
a
very
few
networks
that
outperform
their
testnet
benchmarks
on
the
mainnet,”
said
Sergii
Grybniak,
Blue
Wave
CTO
and
Waterfall
Head
of
Research. “Waterfall
Network
is
on
its
way
to
being
among
the
most
scalable
decentralized
networks
in
blockchain
with
the
capability
of
being
run
on
almost
any
type
of
node.”

Testing
conducted
with
support
from
the
Google
Cloud
Web3
Startup
Program
has
shown
that
the
Waterfall
Network
mainnet
is
the
most
decentralized
network
capable
of
supporting
more
than 1.5
million
validators,
which
is
more
than
any
other
proof-of-stake
network,
including
Ethereum.
Waterfall’s
testing
includes
home-based
computers
and
laptops,
cloud
servers
provided
by
Google
Cloud,
Amazon
Web
Services,
Digital
Ocean,
and
Hetzner.
Waterfall
Network
was
also
accepted
into
Hyperledger
Labs’
prestigious
GitHub
space
that
allows
open-source
blockchain
projects
to
experiment,
gain
credibility,
and
access
a
global
community
of
experts
to
help
accelerate
growth
and
adoption.
This
opportunity
afforded
their
project
increased
visibility,
peer
support,
and
valuable
feedback
contributing
to
the
overall
improvement
of
the
network.

Waterfall’s
unique
protocol
incorporates
a
next-generation
“Directed
Acyclic
Graph
(DAG)”
technology
that
allows
for
potentially
virtually
unlimited
scalability
and
portability
of
decentralized
applications
(dAPPs).
As
validators
sign
on
the
Waterfall
Network,
grants
and
rewards
will
also
be
distributed
to
researchers
and
developers
who
assist
with
community-driven
security
auditing
activities,
such
as
completing
bug
bounties.

About
Waterfall

Waterfall
is
a
leading
layer
one
(L1)
architecture
aiming
to
provide
a
solution
for
security,
scalability
and
decentralization
to
help
dAPP
developers
change
the
world.
 Waterfall’s
Directed
Acyclic
Graph
(“DAG”)
achieves
and
allows
it
to
run
a
validator
node
from
any
device,
including
low-cost
laptops
and
mobile
phones
in
the
future.
Waterfall
is
Ethereum
Virtual
Machine
(EVM)
compatible,
allowing
for
the
portability
of
decentralized
applications
(dAPPs),
and
has
very
low
hardware
requirements
for
the
participants
to
become
validators.
