In the world of Ethereum scaling solutions, speed and efficiency are paramount. Starknet, a zero-knowledge rollup network, has redefined these standards by shattering the transactions per second (TPS) record among Ethereum layer-2 networks.
During a 24-hour period, Starknet reached a max TPS of 127.5, outpacing Coinbase’s Base’s previous record of 79.92 TPS far behind. This achievement unfolded during a gaming dress rehearsal that stressed the network’s capability to handle high transaction volumes.
Records are meant to be broken.

Yesterday, we reached a new peak of 857 TPS on Starknet Mainnet (thanks to @cartridge_gg), shattering our earlier record of 503 TPS.
Our scaling is real, and we’re just getting started. See you in 2025 to break this record again. pic.twitter.com/E2cXctaXcL

This recent test was not a regular performance run; it was a high-stakes trial that proved Starknet could handle heavy traffic demands under real-world conditions.
Starknet’s record-breaking speed is more than a technical milestone; it demonstrates its commitment to enabling high-volume applications. Starknet has set the bar higher for Ethereum layer-2 solutions with this recent achievement.
As developers and users demand more from blockchain platforms, Starknet’s recent test shows what Ethereum scaling could look like soon.
The record-breaking test was no simple feat. StarkWare, the Starknet Foundation, and game development firm Cartridge came together to create a network’s ultimate trial with a tile-based game called FlippyFlop.
In the game, players competed against bots to check tiles on a grid while bots randomly unchecked them, creating a human vs. machine showdown.
This fast-paced challenge generated over 11 million daily transactions, reaching a network peak of 857 TPS.
Despite Starknet’s triumph in speed, it remains lower on the Decentralized Finance (DeFi) leaderboard than Base and Arbitrum in terms of Total Value Locked (TVL).
According to DeFi Llama, Starknet’s TVL currently stands at $235.7 million, compared to Base’s $2.64 billion and Arbitrum’s $2.44 billion. This decline reflects a significant drop from Starknet’s February high of $1.32 billion in deposits on the network.
However, the race among layer-2 solutions is more than just about deposits. It also involves metrics like transaction speed, interoperability, and decentralization.
Starknet’s sophisticated cryptography and technical foundation position it as a contender with strength beyond simple rankings.
