AtlantisChain, a Layer-0 public blockchain claiming 3.6 million transactions per second (TPS) and a 0.031-second block time, has surpassed 1 billion blocks after 373 days of operation, according to a June 23, 2026 press release. The milestone was reached at 11:13 a.m. Pacific Time on June 22, 2026, with a recorded block height of 1,000,000,034. This achievement cements AtlantisChain's position as the fastest blockchain by block height, block time, finality, and TPS, outpacing established networks like Solana, BNB Smart Chain, and Ethereum.
In comparison, Solana had 406,286,685 blocks since March 2020, BNB Smart Chain had 105,763,073 blocks since September 2020, and Ethereum had 25,374,757 blocks since July 2015. AtlantisChain's block height is 246% of Solana's, 945% of BNB Smart Chain's, and 3,940% of Ethereum's, despite launching in April 2025. The press release attributes this to AtlantisChain's significantly shorter block time, allowing it to widen the gap over time.
AtlantisChain's performance was first recognized as the world's fastest blockchain on November 27, 2025, by over 400 media outlets across 51 countries. The blockchain is built on the Proof of Light (PoL) algorithm and incorporates quantum-resistant technology, which the press release claims makes it the most secure blockchain against quantum computing threats. It also features a finality time of 0.031 seconds, ensuring transactions are irreversible once submitted.
The ecosystem includes over 100 ATC-20 standard cryptocurrencies, such as stablecoins indexed to gold, silver, oil, the Chinese yuan, the U.S. dollar, and the British pound. These assets are designed to support global trade and store of value within the Atlantis ecosystem. The press release notes that several country authorities are considering joining AtlantisChain for trade purposes, signaling a potential shift from traditional finance to digital economies.
Key highlights include Atlantis Time (AT), a sovereign time system parallel to Earth time, and the Atlantis Exchange Pro platform, which offers a $100 instant bonus for registration. The blockchain's explorer, wallet, and token directory are available at ATCscan.io, AtlantisWallet.org, and ATC20Tokens.site respectively.
This milestone underscores AtlantisChain's rapid growth and its potential to revolutionize blockchain technology and global commerce, offering unprecedented speed, security, and scalability.
