Teranode
Engineered for Scalability, Primed for Growth: Unleash Innovation with Uncompromised Data Integrity, Powered by BSV's Teranode Technology.
Teranode and Unbounded Scaling
Enabling Unbounded Scaling for a truly global blockchain
Unbounded Scalability on the BSV Blockchain
In today’s world, available resources dictate the bounds to the amount of transaction activity that blockchain can support. Teranode has no built-in limits. Operators are free to add resources and expand these bounds by magnitudes.
Solving Vertical Scaling Challenges
Teranode serves high-volume transaction nodes for enterprise and government use. These clients, whether contracting with nodes or running their own, drive the Teranode initiative.

- Average: 5000 Tps
- Theoretical peak: 80,000 Tps
Bank of England [Digital Pound]
- Minimum: 30,000 Tps
- Could require 100,000 Tps
Teranode Unbounded
- Minimum: 1,000,000 Tps
- Could produce 5,000,000 Tps
Specialization of Nodes and Functions
The BSV Blockchain, with Teranode at its core, will be the backbone infrastructure for a global system of multiple specialised overlay networks. We anticipate specialised nodes to complement the core services provided by miners running Teranode.
Dedicated overlay networks operated by enterprise infrastructure providers will communicate with the network core. End-user applications will leverage SPV (Simplified Payment Verification) to interact within the Overlay Network.

Specialization of nodes and functions
Teranode represents a breakthrough in the BSV Blockchain ecosystem, introducing the concept of unbounded-specialization of nodes and functions. It enables specialized nodes, even at overlay levels like "bank nodes," while ensuring edge-to-edge connectivity with SPV wallets. Teranode is pivotal in BSV's evolution, empowering innovative blockchain applications.
