What Is ‘Transaction Throughput’ in Blockchain Technology?

Transaction throughput refers to the number of transactions a blockchain network can process and confirm within a specific time frame, typically measured in transactions per second (TPS). It is a key metric for assessing a network's scalability and efficiency.

High throughput is essential for applications requiring rapid processing, such as payment systems and decentralized exchanges.
