#比特币2026年行情展望 MegaETH is about to make a big splash. This high-performance EVM-compatible chain has announced that on January 22, 2026, it will launch a 7-day global stress test aimed directly at pushing the limits of blockchain performance.



Just looking at these numbers reveals how crazy the scale is—processing 11 billion transactions in 7 days, with sustained throughput maintained between 15,000 to 35,000 TPS (transactions per second). To put it another way: a leading exchange’s total transaction volume over several years since launch could be consumed by MegaETH in just one week. If this succeeds, the entire EVM ecosystem will be watching. This is just a rehearsal; the project's ultimate goal is 1 million TPS.

What’s most interesting is that this isn’t a closed-door test. During the testing period, MegaETH’s mainnet will be open to the public, allowing developers and users to deploy applications and run real traffic. Projects sensitive to latency—such as full-chain games and high-frequency trading systems—can take this opportunity to heavily stress the network. It’s like handing the testing stage directly over to the community.

Why is this event so attention-grabbing? Simply put, performance is the Achilles’ heel of large-scale blockchain applications. Slow transactions and high fees kill many innovative applications. MegaETH aims to bring blockchain throughput up to the level of traditional payment networks. If this is truly achieved, the on-chain application ecosystem could be revitalized.

After the stress test, MegaETH plans to officially launch its public mainnet. Regardless of the final results, this test itself is a clear signal that the Layer 2 race is entering a performance competition stage. $ETH $DUSK $ZK

1.1 billion transactions in a week, is that all eaten up? If it really happens, I will go all in directly.

1.1 billion transactions in a week, all consumed? If that really happens, I will have to reevaluate the entire Layer2 landscape.

1.1 billion transactions in a week? If that really happens, blockchain games might survive. Handling this throughput should have been done long ago, stop just announcing it. Oh my god, this TPS number is outrageous, I can't imagine what it would be like in real operation. MegaETH did a good job this time, treating the stress test as an online beta. Sounds impressive, but I always feel something's missing. Can it stay stable? This is what should be done. Stop just bragging and actually test it. Wait until January 22nd to see if it can really hold up, or it will be another empty promise.

110 billion transactions consumed in a week, if that really happens, the game rules will have to be rewritten.

$1.1 billion transactions in a week, if it really happens, that would be incredible. Wait, can this TPS number even be achieved? Feels a bit suspicious. But opening up the test is indeed smart, letting the community experiment. 1 million TPS? Let's talk about it later. Is this for real? Will it be as impressive as they claim? If they can really do this, other L2s will be truly panicked. Breaking the performance ceiling could mean a complete reshuffle of the entire ecosystem. I was scared of getting caught off guard a few months ago, so let's wait and see. DeFi projects capable of handling high-frequency trading systems are set to take off. However, many projects can't even pass stress tests. Can MegaETH do it? I'm a bit interested, but it's better to be cautious. Sounds good in theory, but achieving half of that TPS would already be impressive. If they really push it to the limit this time, we’ll have to see how long the mainnet can sustain it.

110 billion transactions consumed in a week, it really is quite terrifying. But whether MegaETH can withstand the pressure remains to be seen.
