Solana has a high - throughput architecture with a theoretical peak throughput of 65,000 transactions per second (TPS) and an average TPS of 2,000 - 3,000 in practical applications, which is much higher than that of Ethereum and Bitcoin. Its low - cost transactions, with an average fee of about $0.00025 per transaction, are very attractive to users and developers sensitive to transaction costs. In addition, its unique Proof of History (PoH) consensus mechanism, combined with Proof of Stake (PoS), Tower BFT, and Turbine block propagation protocol, etc., provides strong technical support for high - performance operation
