Venom Foundation, the platform backing the Venom blockchain, is pushing for a single industry model for transaction-per-second, or TPS, reporting, arguing that raw throughput figures are often not comparable because networks use different transaction definitions, validator setups, workloads and test methods. In its press release, the foundation said published TPS claims should be paired with standardized disclosure on how results were measured, including whether the figure reflects theoretical capacity, a short-term peak, a specific transaction type or sustained activity. Venom cited Solana as an example of how one chain can produce sharply different throughput readings, noting that Chainspect lists a peak capacity of 65,000 TPS, while the recorded maximum over a more than 100-block window is 7,700 TPS and real-time activity remains in the low thousands; it also referenced a mainnet stress test in August last year that produced 107,540 TPS in one block, with most of the workload made up of no-operation project calls rather than ordinary transfers or smart contract interactions. Venom Foundation CEO Christopher Louis Tsu said, "A TPS figure published without its test conditions tells you almost nothing," adding that six-figure throughput claims immediately raise questions about transaction definitions, validator counts, data location, hardware and timespan. The proposed framework would also require disclosure on test duration, validator numbers, stake and geographic distribution, bandwidth, cloud infrastructure, latency, hardware specifications and finality, while pointing to TON's public performance testing in 2023 as a more transparent benchmark. Venom said reproducible performance data could become central to technical due diligence as blockchain infrastructure is used more heavily for payments, custody and settlement.
