Importance of High Throughput in Blockchain

To efficiently serve a large customer base and provide a good user experience, high throughput is crucial in blockchain. Without it, transactions can be delayed, fail, or never complete. While Layer 2 solutions have traditionally focused on scaling out other stacks, they often result in ecosystem fragmentation and suboptimal experiences when managing assets across different ecosystems. However, networks like Aptos prioritize high throughput, demonstrating peak transaction rates of up to 30,000 transactions per second, which is the highest in the industry.
