At the Solana Breakpoint Conference, buffalu, co-founder and CEO of Jito, stated that Solana is winning the speed race, underscoring a decisive improvement in transaction throughput for the blockchain.

Industry data shows a sixfold expansion in transactions per second over recent years, driven by the collective efforts of the Solana ecosystem engineers and innovative app developers building on-chain solutions.

buffalu cited rising per-block compute units, from about 48–50 million to 60 million this year, with expectations of substantial growth into next year. The trajectory signals ongoing capacity expansion and enhanced block space competitiveness for Solana.
