Solayer Labs: Existing Blockchain Infrastructure Cannot Support Global 24/7 Financial Markets

Odaily News Joshua Sum, Product Lead at Solayer Labs, pointed out in a recent commentary that despite rapid progress in asset tokenization, current blockchain infrastructure has serious flaws and cannot support a true global 24/7 financial market. Existing blockchains face three critical issues: low throughput ceilings, high transaction latency, and unfair transaction ordering mechanisms (MEV), which make institutional-grade trading nearly impossible.

Sum emphasized that to realize the vision of a global, borderless financial market, the blockchain industry needs to fundamentally rebuild its infrastructure, developing networks capable of handling over 100,000 transactions per second with sub-second finality, while ensuring fair transaction ordering to prevent algorithmic arbitrage.
