AtlantisChain has reached a significant milestone by surpassing 600 million blocks within 227 days of operation, solidifying its position as the world's fastest blockchain in terms of block height, block time, and transaction processing speed. As of January 15, 2026, this Layer-0 public blockchain achieved this benchmark just 48 days after becoming the world's fastest blockchain on November 27, 2025, an achievement that was reported by more than 400 major media outlets across the United States with audience coverage spanning 51 countries.
The blockchain's performance metrics are unprecedented in the industry, featuring 3,600,000 transactions per second (TPS) and a 0.031-second block time. According to global Web3 data analysis, no other blockchain currently competes with AtlantisChain's actual performance. The platform's speed, capacity, scalability, cost per transaction, advanced architecture, and USPTO-registered intellectual properties establish it as what its developers describe as the world's most advanced blockchain and global leader in Web3 technology.
In its first 179 days of operation, excluding server upgrade periods in May-June, July, and September 2025, AtlantisChain surpassed the block heights of every existing blockchain since the technology emerged in 2009. The blockchain achieved remarkable comparative milestones, surpassing Bitcoin in just 9 hours, Ethereum in 8 days, Solana Chain in 145 days, and EOS Chain in 179 days. This rapid advancement represents what the development team calls a true revolution in blockchain technology and architecture, developed by an MIT-rooted team in the United States.
The platform has successfully launched over 70 ATC-20 standard cryptocurrencies, including 21 utility coins, 4 stablecoins, 38 memecoins, and 7 memorial coins. Notable launches include the gold-indexed Atlantis Gold (AU) and oil-indexed Atlantis Oil (OIL), providing what the platform describes as rich assets for Web3 users and institutions worldwide. The blockchain has also introduced what it claims is the world's first Chinese Yuan-indexed stablecoin, CNY Coin (CNYC), and the U.S. dollar-indexed stablecoin, Atlantis USD (USDA), both designated as payment currencies in the Atlantis Exchange Pro system.
AtlantisChain incorporates several innovative technologies, including the Proof of Light (PoL) algorithm, QuantumLock anti-hacking security, and cross-border finality of 0.093 seconds. The platform has introduced Atlantis Time (AT), described as the first sovereign time system parallel to Earth time, available through https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F54KZ7PQ. Users can access the blockchain explorer at https://ATCscan.io and the cold wallet at https://AtlantisWallet.org.
The AtlantisSpace initiative has entered its planning and development phase, with information available at https://x.com/AKF_Foundation/status/1997572476407050505. The platform positions itself as what it calls the world's only space shuttle in Web3, exploring what it describes as an AI-powered, quantum-based digital realm parallel to Earth. For cryptocurrency purchases, https://ATC20.com serves as the official portal for stablecoins $USDA and $CNYC, while https://ATC20Tokens.site functions as the ATC-20 AI contract directory for primary assets on AtlantisChain.
This development has significant implications for the blockchain industry, potentially setting new standards for transaction speed and scalability that could influence how decentralized applications and financial systems operate globally. The achievement of processing 600 million blocks in under eight months demonstrates what could represent a substantial advancement in blockchain infrastructure, with potential applications for real-time decentralized applications, commercial payments, and global financial systems seeking faster transaction finalization and higher capacity networks.
