Real-Time Blockchain and Its Capabilities
MegaETH is a groundbreaking “real-time blockchain” that focuses on processing transactions instantly upon arrival. The protocol aims to handle 100,000 transactions per second with millisecond-level responsiveness.&nbsp;
Co-founder Yilong Li explained that a real-time blockchain processes transactions as soon as they arrive and produces results at a very high frequency. The MegaETH protocol achieves this through its heterogeneous blockchain architecture, which boosts performance by allowing nodes with different hardware configurations to specialise in specific tasks.&nbsp;
Moreover, the hyper-optimised EVM execution environment enhances throughput, latency, and resource efficiency to the hardware limits. An EVM execution environment is a blockchain operating system compatible with Ethereum’s programming standard.
Vision and Inspiration
The concept of MegaETH was inspired by Vitalik Buterin’s 2021 <a href="https://vitalik.eth.limo/general/2021/12/06/endgame.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">blog post</a> “Endgame,” which discussed scaling Ethereum. Buterin emphasised the importance of hyper-scalable EVM implementations for truly scaling Ethereum.
In a message shared by a MegaLabs representative, Buterin expressed his excitement about the MegaETH project, praising the developers for taking on this challenge.
