There are other currencies out there that have been designed to do that, such as Ripple (it can sustain 1000TPS, I think). Its also 3rd in volume behind BTC and ETH, and its being deployed to banks.
- rothbardrand 9y agoRipple isn't a cryptocurrency and it's not distributed, it's not really comparable, as its centralized. When you're centralized its trivial to deliver high transaction rates but you lose all of bitcoins advantages. Stay away from Ripple.
- shepardrtc 9y agoThat's not true at all. Ripple (XRP) is a cryptocurrency and it is distributed.
- rothbardrand 9y agoLet me put it this way-- when one of the founders left, the company froze his Ripple. You can't do that with a true cryptocurrency.
