Solana’s 40,000 TPS Exposes Cardano’s Outdated Claims

• Solana TPS surged to 40,000 after Frakendancer went live on mainnet-beta.
• Cardano TPS remains at 1.3 TPS despite promises of hundreds of TPS.
• An analyst accused Cardano of scamming its investors.

Solana’s transactions per second (TPS) have surged to 40,000 with the mainnet-beta launch of Frankendancer, a new validator client. This surge has ignited comparisons with Cardano, whose TPS currently sits at 1.3, according to data from its website.

Crypto analyst Marty Party brought this disparity to light in an X post, where he questioned Cardano’s claims of higher throughput. He urged the crypto community to consider switching from ADA to SOL, sparking a debate about the performance and potential of both blockchains.

While Cardano’s website notes that its eUTXO model can theoretically handle hundreds of TPS, Marty Party argues the actual TPS is just 1.3. He suggests the blockchain network is misleading investors with unrealistic claims.

The analyst then went on to urge the crypto community to better switch from ADA to SOL, abandoning Cardano. Many of his followers expressed interest in converting their ADA to SOL, while another member of the crypto community suggested moving to Sui Network (SUI), an L1 blockchain.

CoinMarketCap data shows that over the past month, SUI gained 108.36%, SOL surged 8.66%, and ADA jumped 9.40%. SUI has clearly outperformed both altcoins and is on an uptrend.

SOL Price Shows Bullish Potential

SOL’s price is up 3.60% in the last 24 hours, trading at $144.12 at the time of writing. The trading volume of the digital asset is down 19.68%, but it remains the fifth-largest cryptocurrency with a market cap of $67.5 billion.
