Cardano crypto has recorded a major throughput gain in its first public Leios test, reaching about six times current mainnet capacity. The result could strengthen the network as activity grows, while ADA price remains tied to market and technical conditions.
Cardano Crypto Reaches Six Times Mainnet Throughput
The Cardano crypto network recorded a strong performance during the first public test of Ouroboros Leios, with the testnet reaching roughly six times the transaction capacity handled by the current mainnet.
The result was not limited to a short burst. The test continued through a 41-day phase, and during its final stable days, Leios handled 54% of all traffic reaching the chain. It processed 18 times the number of transactions seen on real mainnet traffic while carrying 3.3 times the data.
The test also gave developers a chance to find and fix problems in the system. According to the project update, every issue found during the phase came from the code rather than a weakness in the underlying protocol. Developers fixed the issues through weekly public releases.
