With the security track wrapping last week, we looked back at some of the Battle of Nodes numbers. A few highlights from the run 🧵

@MultiversX @multiversxfndn Peak TPS recorded: 120,000. Reached multiple times during the Critical Mass public test on March 31. Battle Net is a shadow fork of mainnet, so this is about as close to real conditions as it gets.

Mar 24, 16:00 UTC 11,122 TPS sustained over a 30-minute window. 20.0M transactions in half an hour. Mar 17, 22:00 UTC 8,875 TPS sustained over a 60-minute window. 31.9M transactions in one hour. Peaks are easy. Holding the line under load is the harder number.

Validator Track: 8 challenges, from Genesis to Great Experiments. 107 validators participated. 29 hit the payout threshold (≥ 2,000 pts). 8 out of 99 finished the hardest one. Top score: 12,525 pts.

192 submissions across 41 active days, from 30+ unique submitters in the Security Track. The final submission day recorded the highest volume across the entire period with 25 entries on April 20 alone.

17 guilds, 5 challenges, 76.2M total onchain operations. Challenge 3 alone pushed 17.9M cross-shard transactions. Final standings in the overall leaderboard: 🏆 @RosettaStake (won 4 of 5 challenges!) 🥈 @TheDinoVox 🥉 @DisrDigital

Last but not least, the Build Wars Hackathon winners! 9 winning projects across DeFi, Gaming, and Infra & Tools. $60K+ in prizes including ecosystem partner specials from @tencentcloud, @CertiK, and more. First-place finishers: DCAi (DeFi), ChatApps (Infra), xArcade (Gaming).
