It's centralized in the sense that it relies on aws, google cloud etc.
The 11m TPS was to demonstrate the technology, scalability and ability to meet global demand (all independently verified) It can even ramp up to beyond 50m TPS. Nothing in crypto and more importantly in currently used tradfi technology comes close
It all comes down to how cheap they can make it.
Oh did I mention Eric Schmidt is an investor. It's the only crypto project he's endorsed aside from chainlink where he was an advisor.
Don't kid yourself. If it is decentralized then there is no way in hell it will reach 11m TPS or even 50m TPS. Those are bullshit numbers. It can do that in a lab between two machines. I can install a blockchain on a powerful server at home and do millions of TPS as well if there's only two computers and one user doing the transactions.
Based on tests, Keeta boasts a high throughput of 10 million transactions per second (TPS) and 400 milliseconds transaction settlements.
MegaETH is a Layer-2 Ethereum scaling solution that aims to achieve near-instant transaction finality with block times as low as 1-10 milliseconds.
1-10ms is a lot shorter than 400ms.
Base announced its flashblocks with 200ms block time. In comparison:
MegaETH = around 10ms
Arbitrum = around 250ms, Orbit = 100ms
Solana = 400ms
If a chain has:
Block time: 200ms (0.2 sec)
Block size: 5,000 transactions
TPS = 5,000 / 0.2 = 25,000 TPS
If the goal is 11 million TPS at 400ms block time:
11,000,000 TPS × 0.4 sec = 4,400,000 transactions per block
That's 4.4 million transactions per block, which is enormous. To sustain this, you'd need:
Blazing-fast network throughput (latency and bandwidth)
High parallelization
Efficient consensus
Massive validator hardware
Fast state execution and storage
Completely centralized.
