Sui hits 40.6 million TPS in offchain test simulating AI agent activity
- Published
Sui recorded a peak of 40,614,180 transactions per second in a live off-chain test in Singapore on Wednesday, more than six times its July result of 6.09 million TPS. The demonstration used more than 10,000 off-chain tunnels and was framed around simulating payments, gaming, messaging, and AI-agent activity.
Key claims & sources
What it means
Users and developers who follow Sui’s payment and messaging plans would notice that the network’s public demonstration now includes a much larger off-chain tunnel setup than before, and that the event was presented in Singapore on Wednesday. The practical effect today is that the showcased throughput is being discussed alongside AI-agent activity rather than only conventional transfer speed.
What changed in practice is that the headline number came from off-chain tunnels and programmable channels opened on mainnet, while the record was still described as an off-chain tunnel throughput peak. What stayed the same is that the test was a demonstration, not a statement about mainnet transaction throughput. (per cryptopolitan.com)
