Zero-knowledge proof (ZK) technology in 2025 achieves 1,000 TPS in practical applications, a 50% increase, per a16zcrypto’s zkSync data. zkSync Era processes 500 TPS with $2 billion TVL, while StarkNet hits 300 TPS. Polygon’s zkEVM, with 200 TPS, scales via recursive ZK-SNARKs, per prior data. Real-world use, like Farcaster’s 5 million DAUs with $0.01 fees, pushes ZK to its limits—1,000 TPS occurs during peak DeFi activity on Arbitrum. However, latency issues—1-second delays on 20% of transactions—cap broader adoption. TPS may reach 1,500 by 2026 if hardware optimization grows 20%, but without reducing latency 10%, 30% of dApps may shift to Solana’s 1,000 TPS, risking ZK’s 15% market share in scaling solutions.
