RE: BitShares Viewed as a Venture Capitalist's Dream
VISA rates are typically quoted at 2000 to 4000 transactions per second.
BitShares stress test put it into the high end of this range at 3300 transactions per second.
And that was a limit on how many transactions we could throw at it, not a limit on what it could handle. Never broke a sweat. Lab tests point to 180,000 transactions per second through the code's main choke point.
I should have said "easily" rather than "routinely" and the word "daily" is superfluous. - Fixed
I would love to see more of these statistics. Can you point us?
But those stress test statistics aren't made up. Here's a link to them again: https://steemit.com/bitshares/@ash/current-bitshares-testnet-stress-test-highlight-3300tx-14000ops
93.7% of all statistics are made up like this one.
Or, as Abraham Lincoln once said, "Don't believe everything you read on the internet."
