The testnet of the layer-1 blockchain network Avalanche has reportedly achieved over 140,000 transactions per second during the evaluation of its HyperSDK blockchain enhancement.
Avalanche is presently assessing a framework for constructing high-performance Virtual Machines (VMs) from the ground up on the network.
As stated by Ava Labs, HyperSDK is designed to allow developers to “connect to a lightning-fast execution environment without the need to write extensive amounts of code from the beginning.”
This facilitates the streamlining and speeding up of custom VM development, making it more straightforward for developers to deploy optimized blockchains.
HyperSDK recorded an impressive 143,322 transactions per second in a controlled testing setting, as indicated by a screenshot posted on GitHub.
In contrast, Avalanche asserts it currently handles up to 4,500 TPS, while Solana claims between 2,000 and 3,000 TPS, and Ethereum processes only 15-20, according to information from Coincodex.

In an interview with Cointelegraph’s Andrew Fenton at the Korea Blockchain Week 2023, Nick Mussallem, the head of product at Ava Labs, expressed his anticipation that real-world throughput will ultimately stabilize around 50,000 TPS.

“They’ve recorded it at 141,000. But that’s in a highly controlled environment. So I believe if you were to reduce that by half, it would still be quite generous and likely exceed that.”
Addressing the blockchain trilemma, which involves the careful balance of decentralization, scalability, and security, he noted that nothing was compromised, adding that Avalanche developers created it from scratch to enhance state management:
“Basically removed a lot of the elements that were present in the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) that they considered unnecessary on the networking layer or at the storage layer, and then integrated our consensus algorithm beneath it. And it just operates quickly. Now it’s optimized.”
Blockchains developed with HyperSDK will function as subnets referred to as HyperChains and can be tailored for any purpose the developer desires.
A user interface (GUI) will be available that does not necessitate additional coding, and developers will also have the option of VM. “You can literally launch it in five minutes,” Mussallem stated.

Mussallem mentioned that HyperSDK is open source and currently accessible, “but it’s still very much in the early beta stages.”
It has not yet been launched and is not ready for production, as the target for that is set for the end of the year, he added.
