Hm, what am I not getting? One transaction per second for every human on the planet would be 8 billion TPS, not 70k, no?

- ndriscoll 3mo agoYes, the point is it's difficult to even conceive of something that needs anywhere near the billions of TPS, because generally speaking, humans are not doing something with a computer once per second on average. Far lower. I might use my credit card less than once per day on average.
- stavros 3mo agoAh, yes, humans don't, but computers do. I'd imagine there are plenty of systems that ingest automated data (eg sensors) that need billions of TPS.
