Base once approached 1000 TPS, bringing its performance further away from Solana

According to Cointelegraph, Coinbase's Layer2 network Base once processed nearly 1000 transactions per second, making its performance closer to Layer1 blockchain Solana. On May 29th, Jesse Pollak, the founder of Base, stated on X that during the token issuance on the Virtuals AI platform, Base maintained a processing capacity of nearly 1000 TPS. Chainspec data shows that the instantaneous peak of Base reaches 959 TPS, with a theoretical maximum of 1429 TPS, but the real-time TPS remains at around 156. This peak is driven by the trading frenzy of tokens or memes issued by other platforms on Base. The Basescan report states that the current TPS of the network is 137. By contrast, according to Chaincheck's data (excluding voting transactions and other data), Solana's current throughput is 1039 transactions per second. The "real TPS" data reported by Solscan is also similar, at 1029.
