Sei Labs' Hermes Consensus Hits 100K TPS in Giga Roadmap Tests
- —Hermes hit 100,000 TPS with 68 ms median finality in lab tests
- —95th-percentile finality was 101 ms; with three validators stopped, 206 ms
- —The test ran on 51 validator replicas across four European regions
- —SEI rose nearly 50% in a week to $0.0609 as volume fell 35% to $56 million
Why it matters: A successful Hermes rollout could strengthen Sei's technical pitch against Solana, Sui and Aptos, but the benchmarks are lab-only and do not reflect current mainnet performance.
