Blockchain EVM comparison

I wanted to create a honest comparison with real numbers instead of showing you theoretical marketing numbers. If you disagree with any of it, please leave a comment, back it up with data or proof and I will correct my content. Keeping this post super short as you people are SO lazy reading anything 🤣

Summary

This picture is a summary of my research and I keep it updated to contain latest information.

TPS - Transactions per second

TPS figures in the picture means maximum sustainable real-world usage TPS. Check out background and "proof" for the TPS on these separate articles:

Conclusions

It seems like most TPS figures mentioned in crypto space are theoretical maximums or at least results of a tests run with the lightest transactions possible to achieve high TPS counts, very little connected to real world usage scenarios. Everyone seems to be exaggerating their chain's TPS. In this environment, it is hard to give truthful and realistic TPS figures, as by doing so, you would be in disadvantage compared to everyone else. This is my effort trying to fight this problem. Better data leads to better and more informed decisions. Let’s keep things real! :) 

Use this info how you like

You are welcome to use this datasheet (picture), or just the data in it however you like. The numbers in the picture are partly quite different from the data hovering around the crypto space, so I would recommend you consider linking back to this page to inform people, what is the reasoning behind the numbers, especially in case you don't include the link in the picture.

Work in progress

Currently I’ve had time only to provide background for the TPS figures and I have not done yet thorough research about all the information in the picture myself, so the data in the picture will probably evolve a bit over time. Just bear with me as I’m doing this only on my spare time.
