−5.5%Sui hits 40.6 million TPS in live Basecamp stress test
Image: CointelegraphSui ran a live stress test at its Basecamp conference in Singapore on October 7 2026. The network hit 40,614,180 transactions per second, beating its 20 million target and a July 2026 record of roughly 6.1 million TPS. Independent auditor CertiK verified the result in real time. The throughput came from Sui's programmable offchain tunnels, which settle final state on the mainnet. The test simulated high-frequency activity between AI agents.
Key points
- Sui processed 40,614,180 transactions per second in a live Basecamp stress test.
- Independent auditor CertiK verified the test result in real time.
- The throughput came from Sui's programmable offchain tunnels that settle on the mainnet.
- The test simulated high-frequency activity between AI agents.
Why it matters
The test demonstrates Sui's ability to handle high-volume offchain activity that settles on-chain, a feature designed for autonomous AI agent transactions. It provides an independently verified benchmark for the network's throughput capacity.
