4) As far as I can tell, during the week when it's had performance issues, and if you exclude all of the voting transactions from the TPS...
...it's still processed more transactions than all other major blockchains.
Combined.
5) Yes, it hasn't processed as many as it could have. But it's still doing a ton.
Which is to say: there's more work to do. There's always more work to do.
And the most important thing is doing that work. Building.
6) But also, let's not lose sight of the bigger picture.
Only by being ambitious can we make progress. And sometimes that means failing to hit our goals, but we still often end up further than if we'd never tried.
And there's always tomorrow.
7) Solana is mostly out of slack--the demand from transactions has reached the supply.
So, you keep working to increase the throughput of the system, and the efficiency, to scale with the demand.
