How We Calculate TPS on Chainspect
To calculate TPS we take different time intervals (hour/day/week/month) and calculate the total amount of transactions in them. Then we divide it by the number of seconds in an interval.
What Transactions Are Included
Only transactions with economic value are included, system transactions together with transactions needed to reach consensus are excluded.
