Internet Computer ($ICP) has posted the highest weekly transaction throughput of any blockchain tracked by analytics provider Chainspect, averaging about 5,260 transactions per second over the past week. That is roughly three times the average reported for @Solana ($SOL), which sits in second place.

The figures come from @chainspect_app and relate to @dfinity's Layer 1 network. According to Chainspect, ICP averaged 5,260 transactions per second over the past week, approximately three times Solana's reported average. Chainspect published the figure on November 13, 2026.

How ICP and Solana Compare on Chainspect

Chainspect's live dashboard shows the gap in current data. A snapshot taken on November 13, 2026 listed ICP first at 5,003 tx/s and Solana second at 2,640 tx/s, with Sui, TRON, Stellar and BNB Chain all below 200 tx/s. Different time windows give different results, so the exact multiple varies depending on the period measured.

Rankings have also shifted from week to week. Earlier in the autumn, Solana and Internet Computer led Chainspect's weekly real TPS ranking at 1,710 and 1,502 transactions per second, respectively.More recently, ICP led a weekly throughput comparison at 2,323 TPS against Solana's 1,896 TPS. The latest reading is a much wider margin than either of those.

The network has also built up a large cumulative total. Chainspect lists ICP at about 316 billion total transactions, against roughly 136 billion for Solana.

What the Throughput Figure Does and Does Not Show

TPS is a narrow measure. It counts how many transactions a blockchain processes each second and is one of the most widely used performance metrics in Web3. It does not capture fees, liquidity, user numbers or the value of the activity being processed.

The market has not rewarded the activity so far. In an earlier weekly comparison, ICP's price stayed within a descending channel after failing to hold $3.50 two weeks before, and fell to a low of $2.50.On November 13, 2026, ICP traded at $2.53 with 24-hour volume of around $57.38 million.

Throughput readings can also swing sharply over short windows. In an August snapshot over a one-hour window, Solana led at 1,635 transactions per second with Internet Computer at 1,309. Weekly averages smooth out some of that volatility, but the lead should be read as a snapshot rather than a settled ranking.
