AtlantisChain, a Layer-0 public blockchain, has achieved a significant milestone by surpassing 1.1 billion blocks in just 410 days of operation, as of 10:16 AM Pacific Time on July 30, 2026. This feat underscores its claim as the world's fastest blockchain, with a block time of 0.031 seconds and a throughput of 3.6 million transactions per second (TPS). The achievement comes eight months after the network was recognized as the fastest blockchain in November 2025, a title reported by over 400 media outlets across 51 countries.
According to a screenshot captured at the milestone time, AtlantisChain's block height stood at 1,100,000,014, while Solana recorded 414,249,309 blocks (since March 2020), BNB Smart Chain had 113,042,083 (since September 2020), and Ethereum had 25,646,777 (since July 2015). This means AtlantisChain's block height is 265.54% of Solana's, 973.09% of BNB's, and 4,289.04% of Ethereum's, despite starting operations years later. The significantly shorter block time ensures AtlantisChain will continue to widen its lead.
AtlantisChain's rapid ascent is attributed to its unique architecture and consensus mechanism. It is built on the Proof of Light (PoL) algorithm, which is designed to be quantum-resistant, addressing vulnerabilities found in Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS) systems. This makes it the only quantum-resistant blockchain in the Web3 space, providing enhanced security against potential quantum computing threats. Transactions on AtlantisChain are final and irreversible within 0.031 seconds, leaving no room for hacking or alteration.
The network has also launched over 100 ATC-20 standard tokens, including stablecoins indexed to gold, silver, oil, the Chinese Yuan, the US dollar, and the British Pound. These digital assets are intended to support global trade and store of value within the Atlantis ecosystem. The native token, Atlantis Coin (ATC), powers all interactions and is projected to serve over 1 billion users by 2030.
AtlantisChain's performance has attracted interest from government authorities looking to integrate blockchain for global trade, signaling a shift toward digital economies. The project, developed and built by an MIT-rooted team in the United States, is available through various platforms including its explorer at ATCscan.io, wallet at AtlantisWallet.org, and exchange at AtlantisPro.io.
As AtlantisChain continues to expand, it aims to extend its capabilities into outer space with the AtlantisSpace project, ensuring uninterrupted operations and interplanetary blockchain capabilities. With its unmatched speed and security, AtlantisChain is positioning itself as the global leader in Web3 technology, setting new benchmarks for scalability and performance.
