Abu Dhabi, UAE, May 23rd, 2025, Chainwire
The Venom Foundation has successfully completed a closedānetwork stress test of its nextāgeneration protocol, which is capable of completing 150,000 transactions per second (TPS) and finalizing all transfers in under three seconds. The implementation of this upgrade is set to occur in Q3āÆ2025 and make Venom one of the most effective throughput public blockchains in existence.
āThroughput only matters if it can remain reliable under pressure,ā said Christopher Louis, Chief Executive Officer at Venom. āOur new stack can handle enterpriseāscale workloads without spiking fees or compromising decentralization, which is exactly what payment providers, exchanges, and game studios need.ā
Why It Matters for Markets
- SpeedāÆatāÆscale ā DAGābased mempool consensus unlocks headroom for 400,000+āÆTPS in synthetic benchmarks while maintaining realātime finality.
- Fair order flow ā The distributed sorting layer can convert the DAG into a single linear order, preventing frontārunning and other MEV exploits.
- Parallel smartācontract execution ā TVM actor model shard accounts and processes call asynchronously, enabling highāvolume DeFi and microtransactions.
- Deterministic security ā Validators can generate identical outputs, meaning finality is reached once 2āÆnāÆ+āÆ1 signatures are collected, making forks virtually impossible.
- Lean networking footprint ā Asynchronous block distribution keeps bandwidth costs low for operators and cloud partners.
Path to Production
Testnet (Q2āÆ2025) āĀ Security audits, ecosystem tooling, thirdāparty audits
Mainnet Migration (Q3āÆ2025) ā Ināplace hard fork
Ecosystem Expansion (Q4āÆ2025) ā Crossāchain bridges, featureācomplete SDKs
Transparency
All raw data, node configurations, and test scripts will be published to Venomās public GitHub repository ahead of the testnet launch. Independent auditors are currently reviewing both the security and performance aspects of the upgrade.
