Practical usage statistics for plastic cards show that the average load on international payment systems (VISA, MasterCard, etc.) is approximately 6,000 transactions per second. The EVEN Network’s algorithms permit network users to perform more than 200,000 transactions per second, with the average transaction being completed in three seconds. These speeds will allow users to pay with cryptocurrencies in their daily lives. For example, they could pay their bill at a café in just a few seconds rather than waiting several minutes.
