According to Odaily, Solayer Labs' product lead, Joshua Sum, has highlighted significant deficiencies in current blockchain infrastructure, which hinder the development of a true global 24/7 financial market. Sum identifies three major issues with existing blockchain systems: low throughput limits, high transaction latency, and unfair transaction ordering mechanisms, known as MEV, which make institutional-level trading nearly impossible.
Sum emphasizes that to achieve the vision of a global, borderless financial market, the blockchain industry must fundamentally rebuild its infrastructure. This includes developing networks capable of processing over 100,000 transactions per second with sub-second finality, while ensuring fair transaction ordering to prevent algorithmic arbitrage.
