Stellar Unveils Fee-Free Network Processing 7 Million Payments per Second
The Stellar Foundation unveiled a fee-free network design that early benchmarks show processing 7.02 million payments per second across eight machines inside a single validator. The foundation says it has not yet decided how this network will relate to Stellar itself. Traders would care because a fee-free, high-throughput design could reshape Stellar's value proposition, though the unresolved link to the existing chain and the early-stage benchmarks limit near-term certainty.
