#Solana平台发展 Seeing this set of data from Jito, what flashes through my mind is the series of "performance competitions" in 2017. Back then, every project was shouting about TPS, but what was the result? Most of them died quietly.

The path Solana has taken in recent years is very clear to me—starting from 48 million compute units, gradually breaking through to 50 million, 60 million, and now aiming for 100 million. This is not simple linear growth; it’s a curve constantly validating its own reliability. The key point is that this is not just a paper promise; these are real performance metrics running on the network.

I have experienced too many projects that were "perfect in theory" but ultimately failed. The reason Solana was able to survive among many high-TPS projects back then is not only because of its speed but more importantly because of stability. Every increase in compute units means network engineers are optimizing, validating, and handling real traffic pressure. The announcement of Breakpoint reflects not an isolated event but the continuous accumulation of the entire ecosystem over six years.

The current issue is not "whether Solana can be fast," but "who is still seriously working on speed." While most Layer1 projects are discussing ecology, narratives, and marketing, Solana is still doing the most straightforward engineering work. From 48 million to 100 million compute units, this path seems simple, but in reality, each step is a "no" to those failed projects in history.

In this cycle, the true difference at the infrastructure layer will become more apparent.
