TREE NEWS update: Layer-1 blockchain Sui said its programmable offchain tunnels reached 40.6 million transactions per second during a live stress test. The test was designed to simulate high-frequency activity between AI agents. Sui has not disclosed a date for the milestone or further technical details.
Sui’s Offchain Tunnels Hit 40.6M TPS in Live AI Agent Stress Test
The headline number is less informative than the design claim behind it: offchain tunnels move high-frequency agent traffic off the L1, so the throughput figure describes a path that is not the base chain's own capacity. That distinction matters for anyone assessing where Sui's AI-agent narrative sits relative to its mainnet performance, and for competitors pitching similar agent-payment rails. The missing date and technical detail leave the result unauditable for now; whether independent verification and a mainnet-linked use case follow is the open question.
