With blockchain and PoH, Solana can handle up to 65,000 transactions per second (TPS), making it an excellent choice for applications that require high throughput. Polygon, also known as Matic, is a block built as a Layer 2 scaling solution on top of the Ethereum network. Polygon, while not as fast as Solana, still boasts impressive transaction speeds. It supports around 7,000 transactions per second. This speed is achieved through a combination of proof-of-stake and proof-of-authority consensus mechanisms.
