Solana rival Base hits 400 TPS, claims core contributor.
Coinbase Ethereum layer-2 network Base has been hitting high transaction per second (TPS) throughput according to the firm’s head of protocols, Jesse Pollak.
In an April 9 post to X, Pollak reported seeing throughput as high as 300–400 TPS, which he said was being achieved “with no issues.”
However, the Coinbase-backed layer-2 blockchain has a real-time TPS of 26.8 and a maximum recorded TPS of 292, according to Chainspect.
Layer-2 ecosystem analytics platform L2Beat reported that average transactions per second on Base reached a peak of 37 on April 8, more than double Ethereum’s 14 TPS.
In a response to Pollak’s original post on X, pseudonymous trader Wazz claimed that if Pollak’s observations were accurate, then the network could be achieving a similar TPS to the Solana network.
“Correct me if I’m wrong but if true then Base is now doing the same TPS as Solana.”
Wazz added that around 60% of Solana’s reported 1,000 TPS were failed transactions, meaning that the actual TPS was closer to 400.
