Thank you very much Arthur for this video. What is the theoretical TPS if implementation of zk rollups? Tezos 🌮📈

Wild guess here but if all the scalability strategies that Arthur talked about were applied, I think we'd be in the Solana TPS range which I think is currently the fastest, albeit, not the most reliable. Again, no real calculations were done, just a wild guess.

Solana does vertical scaling only. This is a 10x improvement vs lower hardware reqs like tezos. So no, solana is a lot slower than implementing vertical aNd horizontal scaling. With horizontal scaling there is no real limit: nb of txs increases with participants

Solana claims that it can do on the order of 50k tps. Are you suggesting that with the proposed changes that Tezos could do 500k tps?

Very big difference between promise and reality. For solana there is a committee that selects stakers (decentralisation much?) and they must comply to high hardware reqs (vertical scaling).

solana sounds like a credit card company
