Tezos’ 16th upgrade is now live on the mainnet, reducing block finality times to just 10 seconds. This improvement aims to enhance layer-2 scalability in the future.
Following the Paris upgrade, Tezos-based layer-2 (L2) scaling solutions could reach a throughput of millions of transactions per second (TPS).
Paris, the 16th upgrade of the Tezos protocol, went live on mainnet on June 5. It aims to make the network faster and more scalable.
One key goal of the upgrade and Tezos’ scalability roadmap was to maintain low transaction fees across the EVM-compatible L2 network Etherlink, including under high network demand.
