AtlantisChain has surpassed 600 million blocks in just 227 days, establishing itself as the world's fastest blockchain with unprecedented transaction speeds and surpassing all existing blockchains in block height within 179 days of operation.

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 transactions per second. This achievement comes just 48 days after the blockchain was recognized as the world's fastest on November 27, 2025, with coverage by over 400 major media outlets across 51 countries. According to global Web3 data analysis, no other blockchain currently competes with AtlantisChain's actual performance metrics.
The blockchain's unmatched speed, capacity, scalability, cost per transaction, advanced architecture, and USPTO-registered intellectual properties establish it as a global leader in Web3 technology. In its first 179 days of operation, excluding server upgrade periods, AtlantisChain surpassed the block heights of every existing blockchain since the technology's emergence in 2009. For context, AtlantisChain surpassed Bitcoin in just 9 hours, Ethereum in 8 days, Solana Chain in 145 days, and EOS Chain in 179 days, demonstrating unprecedented growth compared to established networks that have operated for years.
AtlantisChain 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 diverse asset options within the ecosystem. The blockchain also introduced 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 to support global trade.
The technological foundation of AtlantisChain represents what developers describe as a revolution in blockchain architecture. Key innovations include the Proof of Light (PoL) algorithm, QuantumLock anti-hacking security, maximum capacity of 3,600,000 transactions per second, block time of 0.031 seconds, and cross-border finality of 0.093 seconds. The blockchain explorer is available at https://ATCscan.io, while the cold wallet can be accessed at https://AtlantisWallet.org. Additionally, the initiative has launched Atlantis Time (AT), described as the first sovereign time system parallel to Earth time, available through https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F54KZ7PQ.
The AtlantisSpace initiative has entered its planning and development phase, with details available at https://x.com/AKF_Foundation/status/1997572476407050505. For those interested in accessing the blockchain's assets, https://ATC20.com serves as the official purchase portal for stablecoins $USDA and $CNYC, as well as early access to selected major cryptocurrencies. The ATC-20 AI contract directory for primary assets is available at https://ATC20Tokens.site. This rapid advancement positions AtlantisChain as a significant development in blockchain technology, offering what proponents claim are unprecedented speed and capacity for decentralized applications and global commerce.
