As Bitcoin becomes slower each day in transaction confirmation time, other alternatives could prove to become useful for everyday transactions. Cryptocurrencies like Litecoin, Dogecoin, and even Ethereum have faster transaction confirmation time allowing you to send and receive coins at a hassle-free way.

Thus, among the wide variety of altcoins, many have block times which are near instantaneous. Based on these facts, which cryptocurrencies do you consider the fastest?

I would appreciate if you would list it or them here.  :)

Dash has InstantSend, which is about 2 seconds and gives you 4 confirmations on a transaction.
It also has that transaction locked to prevent double-spending.

about cryptocurency is fastes transaction and confirmation
i think is the best dogecoin , and dogecoin is very low fee sending too, so is enjoy use dogecoin

Yes. It is one of my favorite cryptocurrencies because of this feature. I'm not sure if there would exist a much faster cryptocurrency, but so far it seems like Dash has the lead. It also has a block size limit of 2MB in contrast to Bitcoin, with its never ending block size debate.  ::)


I think so too. Especially for micropayments, as it makes it an ideal cryptocurrency to tip others. Due to its inexpensive nature, it is very easy to obtain, allowing anyone to get into it and learn more about cryptocurrencies.  :)

Heat is the fastest coin I have.

Is Digibyte fast?

FastCoin is quickly becoming the biggest internet sensation since Bitcoin.  Merchants are quickly realizing the benefits of Crypto Currencies and FastCoin is one of the special Crypto coin’s which makes this technology practical to use in everyday commerce.  FastCoin is currently THE FASTEST Complete Transacting Crypto currency in the world, without sacrificing security!  Our engineers were able to develop a 12 sec per block transacting coin which is ideally suited for today’s time sensitive needs.  As the general public slowly realizes the benefits of Bitcoin, early adopters of Crypto currencies will quickly understand the value in the role that time plays, specifically when conducting everyday transactions.

Really? With a $16k marketcap?

12 seconds per block is the fastest? I thought there was something quicker.  I'm not sure why 12 seconds would offer a big advantage when it's barely faster than ethereum.

I don't think you can jump to conclusion that this one is the fastest, most of these tokens are used on exchanges and no real world use. If they start to have the real world use like Bitcoin, I will say they are the fastest.

Any credibility to this?

https://steemit.com/bitshares/@oaldamster/bitshares-is-superior-to-any-other-crypto-and-therefore-so-is-steem

its hard to say one coin is the fastest but i think for the answer is only bitcoin that got this because we can see bitcoin price is really up and down to often. for the altcoin, since there is many altcoin list, then we need to see how good the altcoin movement in the market and how big the volume of the altcoin but still its hard to say and choose one coins.

Digital currencies which are not demanded much, could be faster.

CLOAK is among the fastest with 1min blocktime almost instant sends and private feature (ENIGMA)!

STEEM has a 2 second block time.

Each blog post, comment and vote is also a transaction on the blockchain so it is already processing major tx volumes.

STEEM also has zero transaction fees too btw.

I don´t know if it is the fastest but creditbit is very fast cryptocurrency https://cointelegraph.com/news/10-times-faster-than-bitcoin-creditbit-starts-migration-to-ether-token

MINT is 30 second block time, transactions are fully confirmed and re-spendable again after 2 minutes.

@everyone Thanks for sharing these altcoins with fast block speeds. They would become very useful if adopted by major merchants and businesses worldwide. I've read that BitShares is capable of handling up to 100,000 TPS which makes it very ideal to handle large transaction volume. Also, it has a block time of 1 second which makes it confirm almost instantly.

You can check out BTS performance info: https://bitshares.org/technology/industrial-performance-and-scalability/ (https://bitshares.org/technology/industrial-performance-and-scalability/)



Great! I've heard a lot about MINT, and it has been one of the Proof of Stake currencies that has grabbed my attention. I used to have some MINT before, but I had to sell them out, as I needed the BTC. Still, I'll be willing to go back into it since it is a truly unique PoS coin, which doesn't require you to leave the wallet open 24/7 to receive stakes.  ;D

Why do you lock a transaction? Does the chain accept two of the same signatures? Stupid design.

Bitcoin's Lighting Network will be the fastest.
Maybe Ethereum's Raiden Network aswell.

I played with manually decreasing transaction fee in my BTC transaction and it took some of my nerves and 2-3 days to clear. Not the best experience. And the fee was pretty heavy, to my mind.

I am quite satisfied with Eth speed, 14-15 seconds for 1 block and using the standard ...42 Eth it clears pretty and fast enough for me. Don't really see the need for insta or 1-2 seconds transactions, in my case.

It is sort of exciting and scaring of the coming BTC fork stuff, but I guess it is better be done sooner than later. I am for the Core team ;D

InstantSend is realized off chain and then committed to the chain in the next block.
It's actually similar to what Lightning network should do on Bitcoin blockchain.

Fastest crypto is Creditbit. But its still a crypto with a small marketcap and they still have shit wallets etc. They need better development but its the fastest

https://bitshares.openledger.info/explorer/blocks

Yes. These solutions will greatly enhance transaction capacity to the aforementioned cryptocurrencies, making them faster than ever. Still, the Lightning Network would require a scalable solution to become widely accepted first (like SegWit), to become into effect and increase confirmation speeds for Bitcoin. I'm not sure if Ethereum's Raiden network is the same, but up until now, there are better cryptocurrencies out there with faster (and almost instant) transactions between users.

I believe that until Bitcoin gets either proposed solutions approved, other alternative cryptocurrencies might take the advantage by delivering blazing fast speeds when it comes to transacting, making them the ideal choice for everyday transactions and micropayments. Just my thoughts.

By the way, I'm mostly looking for instant cryptocurrencies (like Dash). If anyone knows of any other altcoin that assimilates Dash's instant transaction speeds, feel free to share it here.  :)

yes I agree with you. Creditbit is one of the faster growing digital currencies in the cryptocurrency segment. The rapid adoption and development has positioned Creditbit as the ‘Future of Money’.

NEM is the fastest where it actually runs at those speeds, but it's  part of Mijin/Catapult and still in the testing phase yet and has not been implemented into the NEM chain.   There's more to a coin than simply speed, it also has to have security, and good wallets that are easy to use, among other things. 

After looking at creditbit, it's pretty barebones and I can't really invest in something that was in Established in December, 2105....

Well, is 220milli-seconds fast enough for a confirmed transaction?
Radix does this, and its Open Beta and ICO will be scheduled in the next month or so.

The speed above was on a testnet spread out from Lithuanian to San Francisco and Vancouver Canada and South Africa, also South America.
And of course UK and Europe where Fuserleer lives. Also, these speeds are confirmed by a youtube video that was taken.

okie

I've heard a lot about NEM and its proposed solutions towards making it faster and capable of handling high transaction load. Once Mijin becomes implemented into the NEM chain, transactions would become a lot faster than nowadays, giving it a higher advantage than other altcoins.

This one would be good to invest into for the long term, as prices could skyrocket once the testing phase for Mijin is over.

On the other hand, CreditBit is a great cryptocurrency too and running as an ETH token would make it more robust and faster than ever. But still, I believe that NEM has better development and innovation. Just my opinion.  :)

Fastcoin is the fastest of course
and they did it over 4 years ago

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=218852.0

https://www.fastcoin.ca/

May be digibyte, I tried to do some transactions. It is incredibly fast.

Ark is the fastest that I have used to far, it has a 6 second block time. Decred are upgrading to Lightning network soon so that will also be one of the fastest.

Correct. DigiByte is extremely fast, which makes it very ideal for micropayments and mainstream transactions. Their latest SegWit implementation and block size increase over the years, will make this coin the perfect one to handle payments of any kind with no stress unlike Bitcoin.

It is one of my favorite cryptocurrencies, although I'm still comparing different altcoins to see which one is the fastest.



Decred has been one of the most truly democratic cryptocurrencies out there, in my own opinion. While Bitcoin has been struggling to reach consensus for SegWit adoption, Decred is one step ahead of it by providing true governance which would make decisions to improve the network a much faster and efficient one.

Right now, it is fast in handling transactions but with the upgrade to the Lightning Network, it would become blazingly fast at near instant speeds.

As for Ark, it is also one of the fastest cryptocurrencies out there with a huge potential. It's roadmap looks promising and may change the cryptocurrency ecosystem for the better. Just my thoughts. ;D

When urged I used to use Dogecoin to make fast transactions.

Well, Dogecoin is one of the fastest cryptocurrencies in the market making it extremely convenient for quick payments and micro transactions.

However, there are some altcoins which are a lot faster than Dogecoin delivering near instant speeds for hassle-free payments around the world. There are 3 coins which are fast and are among my favorite altcoin list. Those are Fastcoin, Ark, and Worldcoin. With them, you would be able to make payments without having to worry about slow confirmation times unlike Bitcoin.

While the DOGE is a well established altcoin, and serves its purpose well for tipping and micropayments, it lacks development and innovation, making it stand behind other altcoins which have better features and promising technology.

I'm hoping that someday in the future, a new altcoin would come around with zero block time, having instant speeds for transaction confirmation. Just my thoughts. ;D

I also did try to used DogeCoin it was fast extremely fast indeed. And I was quite surprise by it. I hope that bitcoin can imitate that speed as well. ;D. But yeah if there is a development around this coin it will surely rival btc and ETH now.

I agree . The same as me, I often use dogecoin for each of my transactions the reason is not only a fast transaction but a cheap fee as well

I heard that BitBean is pretty fast. Never tried though, don't own it, seems a tiny bit silly to me :) Dogecoin was pretty silly at the start too, with that meme. And what do you mean by using Doge for your transactions? You move BTC to it, then send, and then back to BTC, for instance? Quite new to this world, just trying to understand.

as for personal used i guess i can say doge is really fast and do have a much lower fee, i use it when I'm doing some arbs between exchange as i send doge instead of btc then exchange it up to buy the alts that i'm aiming to take advantage it works for me and chances to make some good profits happen hopefully all or most of the project will act the same with doge.

We need a coin that can predict before you even send :)

Never tried that but i have lots of doge coin in some exchange site the good part its pretty cheap fee for every transaction..
Still hoping that we can see that dogecoin can be more develop and increase value .since its one of the oldest altcoin that still the alive for a long time. for now the movement of the price is really stable but theres a little bit increase the value but still in cheap price..

Ripple has an average at 3 seconds I hear, but I would never use it.  I did like Fastcoin in the past.  But, I don't think about which one is fastest overall, but which one is fast and universally accepted.  Steem is becoming a good option for quickly moving cash.

BTS is pretty good with 1-3 seconds confirmation.

Exactly. Dogecoin has many benefits like: faster transactions, cheaper fees, and relatively low value making it an extremely convenient cryptocurrency for anyone who would like to get started with it, or just use it for daily payments.

So even though, there is no active development for Dogecoin, there are still people who use it, along with a community that it is actively supporting it, and that is what really matters. As long as it remains alive with nodes and miners around, the DOGE would survive for many years to come.

I could imagine a Dogecoin 2.0 in the future, if someone becomes interested in improving its codebase. Things like a new logo design, along with SegWit, limited supply, and other improvements would make Dogecoin an awesome cryptocurrency for anyone to use. Just sharing my thoughts. ;D

Switch to VIA while it's still trading under $50M.  It has all that stuff you mentioned.

ETH is very fast fast coin is fast but has no market or volume and no one care about it, also being fast isn't always good, because more fast is equal to more orphan, some coin mitigate this with a better diff retarget

I would say Dash, Zcash and Byteball looks faster to me

I think doge coin is faster transection and there is low fee required. (i did not try all of coins)

I think haven't learned entirely on each crytocurrency the fastest, but I am currently using the ETH is very quick to come on the market as well as the volume so as not to reduce the disadvantage

Ethereum classic is fastest to sending it, i have made withdrawal etc from exchangers
it was just took couples minute, it is more fast than sending bitcoins,
i think ethereum classic is suitable be currency at least right now because of
bitcoins still has block size problem that makes transaction slow.

You are not looking for speed alone.  The fastest that you will find is a newly created coin, the rewards will pop and the coins will fly provided that you are backing yourself with a node or some mining.  You need there to be some value in the coin also and you need there to be a place to exchange that coin or use it to purchase items.  Your thread has actually brought an interesting thought to mind.

Perhaps we can use 1-5 factors, like speed, value, and usability to create a numeric gauge for coins.  The factors could be compiled and the data used to give the coins a score from 1-100.  Then, the people here at the forum can take over the idea, use the data to manipulate the markets and to push the coins they like and abuse the ones they don't  ;D

We really need a faster crypto currency right now because BTC became an investment, people are rarely using it for buying and stuff. Right now am using Dash as well as Steem for my important transactions. I guess those two are the fastest right now.

Yeah. Ethereum Classic is a fast altcoin too, allowing anyone to send/receive transactions in a convenient way without having to wait hours or days for them to confirm. I believe that any cryptocurrency would be faster than Bitcoin nowadays, since they don't have the same user base and load as the latter.

However, the day will come when other altcoins face the same issue as Bitcoin in terms of scalability when they become widely used in the mainstream world. Take a look at Ethereum for example, where it has experienced bad network performance due to the recent ICOs.

Nevertheless, the faster a cryptocurrency is, the more transaction throughput it might be able to receive, making it easier for mainstream adoption. Up until now, the fastest alts are Bitshares, Ark, Fastcoin, and Litecoin. Just my thoughts. ;D

I tried for arbitrage once with coins like Komodo & Sexcoin, but it takes days for these coins to transfer from one exchange to another. What do you do to become successful in arbitrage?

NewYorkCoin (NYC) has 30-second transaction confirmations and is a fair launch, no pre-mine, proof-of-work scrypt coin since March 6, 2014.

MEET NEW YORK COIN
nycoin.net (http://nycoin.net)

Tiny market cap with early bitcoin gain potential.

http://nycoin.net/img/logo.gif

i didnt try most coins but Waves is fastest coin i tried.it come so fast to me.Also i dont know why exchanges approve faster than other altcoins maybe it can be wrong:D

Tusche  :D

After few transactions with BTC , got sick of slow and expensive transactions.
Did not know about the fast transactions of Dash but since Dash is not supported widely , right now im using litecoin, so far - good.

i think yes that is right to say that ways is the fastest currency as compare to other fiat currency, i think the transaction process is one of the fastest as compare to other crypto currencies as well as even if we compare it to bitcoin it is more faster than bitcoin transaction and i think now the popularity  of waves is therefore increasing too much.

Just about any coin or token is faster than Bitcoin.  I think most altcoins are pretty quick with confirmations.  Some exchanges require more confirmations for certain coins so it still slows down the deposits. 

xrp ripple is very good, but it is not a cryptocurrency  8)

AFAIK this one is quite fast http://nycoin.net/
devs declare 30 seconds confirmation per block
Also it shown some nice stats recently

The fastest so far is Digibyte (DGB) . It is 45x faster and open source. This is one crypto to watch out. The developer is very dedicated and aggressive on promoting DGB to several companys. In the first week of Oct., there will be a new event that DGB will also join.

BitCoin is still not accelerating despite the software update, the team will try to speed up the bitcoin transfers in November. The ethereum and dash  looks very fast now

ETH is quite fast, and block time is very fast. 10 seconds every block.

Dash is really fast and secure. You can use dash. I prefer Dash to transfer my funds to other people.
LTC has nice speed too but after october we will see more fast coins such as Waves.

Interesting topic, although I read a lot of alt coin suggestion, but I think only coin with instant send feature should consider fast, such as dash.

A friendly advice mate, Choose a coin that was only few community that will make sure that the block network is not yet congested. Like newly release coin, Based on what I heard, Dash is the most fastest token to confirm, Can I know what is your purpose for this survey?

while reading replied here I must admit that I was sleeping too much I thought its still goge who have a quick transactions and after seeing replied
I learned about dash and eth seems to be fair review and basis for those who's planning to transfer a funds from one exchange to another instead
of using btc that got some delayed.

XMR had been extremely fastest whenever I used to send them for my gambling purposes or lower fee transactions because when the fee per Bitcoin transaction was high, I always used to choose altcoins and mainly XMR because it helps process the transaction fast and with lowest fee per transaction as well as its mixing feature helps me remain completely anonymous on other hand. Its price is still cheap and so is the fee, but as of now I am using Bitcoins back because after SegWit, the fee structure has settled down way too much that I am all fine to even pay a $1 while transacting.

If you ask which vehicle is the fastest, you will probably going to list some super and hyper cars, but if you ask which vehicle is the fastest for the warfare defense it provides, you will end up with military tanks. So to be just fast has no meaning when you are in a hostile trustless cyberwar like environment. You need to compute the time propagating the transaction in the entire network, then the time on mining queue, the time to mine, then the time to reach consensus and propagating the validations on the network again and this is just the latency calculation, them there is the calculation on the level of protection you get from mining difficult to the number of validations confirmed and even the number of blocks mined after your transaction. So if you need just fast you will find out that centralized non permissive non blockchain solutions are the fastest and them you go to a wide range of options up to bitcoin which is the safest. What you care most ?

Ethereum is quite fast but nothing beats dash though, for me I consider dash the fastest cryptocurrency, transactions are "instantaneous" and it's very safe to use. So far I haven't had any bad experiences with dash, it's always one of my fave coins.

The fastest cryptocurrency is Byte, the native currency from the Byteball platform.

The speed of transaction increases as the DAG database increases in size.

Your realization or obserbation is so contructive that all of the crypto related people face everyday same question. but regarding this issue i would like tell that neo is so faster. its my personal obserbation.

A lot of people are really mentioning a lot of coins here since they are easily being pumped. There are so many fast coins out there, not because they may have huge prospect but because they are just practically good for making good profit. If I were to choose any fast coin anyway, I will have to consider Trig and Neo. I love these 2 as I so surely make fast profit without waiting for so long.

The fastest I am not sure of, but I have had INCREDIBLE transaction speeds with Signatum, Denarius and DeepOnion. I can highly recommend these if you are looking for transaction speeds.

A month ago i would have agreed with you, that BTC is so slow, i could not take it. I waited  about 12h to get the transactions done but few days transaction went trough in matter of minutes. I was amazed. I have to note that transaction fee is quite large all the same.

It seems that SegWit has been implemented in large scale. I would love to see somekind of statistics of SegWit implementation , has it been implemented everywhere?

I've always though that the fastest one would be 5 seconds or faster, yet 12 seconds is fast but yeah, FastCoin is well-recommended especially for times you need easy and quick  transactions.Digibyte is also a thing.
 I think there more cryptocurrencies to be made and ahead as innovations and modernization of technology is uprising.

ETH,BTC,BCH and Dogecoin are getting faster continuously .Above all, all coins are a dominating position now a days..

Vcash allows users to spend and receive transactions instantly with ZeroTime. From vcash.info (http://vcash.info):

I haven't read all of the pages from this thread, but I would like to ask something. Which cryptocurrency is growing up faster? And which can bring someone a good profit after investing in it?

Here’s a video demonstrating the speed of Vcash XVC: https://youtu.be/x62JuYrecOM

PIVX and CRAVE have fast block times and Instant Send - PIVX is now Zero Coin enabled so def worth checking that out.  Total privacy and super quick to boot.

I think it is ethereum or ETH because even it is a small or a starting crypto it still very fast to grow and increase,Ethereum is very essential coin that rapidly I increase,however bitcoin these days is so slow to increase because of transacions,and transfering money.But as I say Ethereum is the fastest growing coins above all.

Bitcoin is so faster, But not more than ETH or Doge. now a days alt coin come to market,
Wings [WINGS],
Zcash
Strat
Golem [GNT]
In this year of 2017.
Also good coin as I know.

Is there a maintained list of cryptocurrencies vs transaction time somewhere?

Coins using Directed Acyclic Graph are the fastest things we have, and they're supposed to become faster as the network grows, so the answer is Byteball and Iota.

I just used DGB for a small amount of coin transaction. And this was really fast for me. Under 2 mins transaction got confirmations and all done.
Will use DGB for small amount of money transactions.

Bitshares has an average of a 1.5 second confirmation, can handle 100,000 transactions per second, and transaction fees of less than $0.01.
This is a crypto currency that is extreme undervalued and has the potential to shoot up

https://bitshares.org/technology/

Bitcoin become slower in everyday transaction,the growth of it is affected because of banning bitcoin in many countries but it still grow but not that fast.I think there is a fast growing cryptocurrency its the altcoin ethereum because even its just starting. Many crypto is getting slower to grow because many crypto and ico make their appearance.

1.2 million cap as I type this now. Fastcoin is not a platform token it is a true currency like Bitcoin and Litecoin. It is the fastest true currency. Mobile wallets in beta testing from my test are transacting near instant 8 seconds being the longest complete trans for me thus far.

I think that Ripple and Stellar have the fastest transaction confirmation time now. Their transaction time is under 1 seconds. And there are many new coins also have fast transaction time with a small volume. we need more time to check their ability.

Info about transaction speed here: https://cryptocomes.com/which-cryptocurrencies-have-fastest-transaction-speeds

Thanks for sharing this useful resource, mate. According to the article, the fastest cryptocurrencies to date are Bitshares, Ripple, and Stellar. Bitshares takes the lead since block time is just 2 seconds, while Ripple takes 4 seconds, followed by Stellar/Lumens with 5 seconds. It's amazing to see such results since, there are many cryptocurrencies which are often slow in processing transactions. One good example is Bitcoin, which takes hours for a transaction to become fully confirmed by the network. However, once the Lightning Network becomes implemented, it'll be much faster than the above altcoins since speeds will be instant.

Using a cryptocurrency which is instant in block time, has a huge advantage over sending money around the world. Also, having little to no fees, is extremely beneficial as it improves the crypto economy. There's a cryptocurrency called NANO which is lightning fast and has zero fees. Therefore, fast and cheap cryptocurrencies are the future. Just my opinion :)

I think haven't learned entirely on each crytocurrency the fastest, but I am currently using the ETH is very quick to come on the market as well as the volume so as not to reduce the disadvantage

Any blockchain or DAG system has problems with scaling. While the number of participants in the network is small, limitation of transaction speed is not noticeable. But when it comes to the global market, it becomes obvious that blockchain or DAG systems can't cope with such transaction volumes.

The speed of transactions has recently increased in Bitcoin. Also, the price for the transaction decreased. If we talk about altcoins that can be faster, then I would choose Ethereum and EOS.

I'm inclined to the fact that it's Litecoin, because the rate of this coin is growing quite stably, and the capitalization is growing even faster.

EOS have great confirnation speed, but it still tokens and not yet swapped. EOS will swap to mainnet and tokens will swap to coins, so i think when the full mainnet release, Eos will have the fastest speed.

DigiByte Coin Fastest -
DigiByte block mined every 60 seconds and manage up to 140 transactions per second.

Completely agree with you, mate. Right now, EOS is just a mere ERC-20 token that lives within the Ethereum blockchain. However, when it becomes released by June, and able to deliver as promised, it will be the fastest cryptocurrency in existence to date. I've seen that EOS will be capable of handling 1,000,000 TPS which makes it far more superior than any cryptocurrency in existence today. It will also be capable of surpassing Visa and MasterCard's TPS allowing EOS to become highly used in the mainstream world.

Nevertheless, only time will tell which cryptocurrency will remain the fastest. As far as I'm aware, Bitcoin's Lightning Network will be able to provide instant transactions which will prove to be the fastest cryptocurrency in existence. Other altcoins that will adopt the Lightning Network, will experience the same benefits in speed as BTC. Lastly, Dash also has instant speeds when its "Instant Send" feature is used. Just my thoughts ;D

BitCoin is still not accelerating despite the software update, the team will try to speed up the bitcoin transfers in November. The ethereum and dash  looks very fast now

There are some really good Altcoins (like Litecoin, Waves) for fast transactions and I prefer to use Altcoin when transferring money wherever it available, however when we need to withdraw money I think the best option is Bitcoin.

Yeah. Most altcoins nowadays are ultra-fast in transaction processing times when compared to Bitcoin. With altcoins such as Litecoin, Waves, Ark, Ripple, Stellar, and Bitshares, transactions could get settle from a few seconds to just a few minutes. On the other hand, transactions on Bitcoin's ledger are extremely slow and take hours before they become fully confirmed on the network. As such, I believe that altcoins will become the top choice for anyone who's looking to send money in a fast and cheap way.

Right now, the fastest cryptocurrencies are Bitshares, Ripple, ARK, and Stellar, but once Bitcoin's Lightning Network becomes active and highly adopted in the mainstream world, then Bitcoin would become the fastest cryptocurrency in existence with near-instant speeds in transaction processing time. Just my opinion :)

Well, for me it's really difficult to tell you which is the fastest. Today every new project claim to be "the fastest crypto", but in reality it's always kinda difficult. Maybe when Seele comes out - it may become the fastest...

No one is the fastest, it all depends on the transaction volume at the time that your transaction went through and if the transactions volumes increases then the transaction times become slower and transaction fees will increase. They all have their good times and their bad times and in bull markets, the coins and their transactions becomes slower due to increased transactions

As I know - the fastest current working blockchain is BitShares. 100 000 transactions per sec. This is crazy  :)
DigiByte is pretty nice too: it has the fastest block speed of any public UTXO blockchain in the world today with 15 second block timings

I think STEEM is one of the fastest if I am not mistaken. I think it can do exponentially more transactions per second than Ethereum or Bitcoin can right now. Bitcoin needs some major improvements to stay on top.

I can't say for sure, but one of the fastest cryptocurrencies is the nem cryptocurrency – 4000 operations per second.
The platform offers some of the fastest cryptocurrency transactions. The main direction of development is the organization to provide services and collect currency on the ICO. With the help of blockchain, you can conveniently convert different tokens into real currency.

Cooperation is conducted with the largest company DigitalEconomyCorporation. NEM has some technical issues and the development team is actively working on it.

That's certainly true, mate. It's hard to know with certainty which cryptocurrency is the fastest, since many factors can determine their speed. Factors such as a lot of users making transactions on a ledger, can dampen the speed of a cryptocurrency and make fees rise to the moon. This is happening with Bitcoin right now, where it once stood to be fast since it didn't have a lot of users transacting in its ledger. The moment Bitcoin became adopted in the mainstream world, was such were transaction speeds became slower and fees higher.

Therefore, such situations could happen with any cryptocurrency nowadays, even those who claim that are the fastest in existence. Depending on the load, will be their speed to process transactions within a given amount of time. Things aside, I think that Ripple, Stellar, and Bitshares could remain fast as they have higher capacity in transaction throughput than many cryptocurrencies we know and love today. Just my thoughts ;D

There are many crypto currencies are available with almost instant confirmation but I always prefer litecoin for faster transaction because it already got reputation too so these coin will be good for our day to day usage in future.Another one is DASH which has instant transaction and also one of the reputed coin as well.

XLM is the fastest i've ever used, however it's very scary. one time i transferred $25k worth and thought i forgot to put in the MEMO, which means i would have lost it all. never touching XLM again. what a stupid thing to have in crypto

In my opinion is NANO , this coin has faster and no fee transaction. Beside NANO others coin is DASH, WAVES and DGB. And more others project want solved about scalability issue like ZIL and this is good thing for development of blockchain technology so will be much better for many industry.

Yes, we have the same opinion and experince that dogecoin is one of the fastest coin. I have enjoyed it in using this coin since I have joined in crypto activitities. I think there should be a general regulation relating to crypto transactions to improve service to crypto users.

I think a good and precise cryptocurrency like Litecoin, Dogecoin and now Ethereum which has fast growth and has the fastest transaction confirmation and is much liked by people because it has grown and advantages that are not available on other altcoins

Well, I'm sure that Stellar would find a way to prevent such situations from occurring again. The key here is not only speed in transactions but also user-friendliness to promote usage of the cryptocurrency. So far, I haven't had any troubles using XLM for my daily transactions. However, the issue you've mentioned needs to be addressed to prevent loss of funds by even the most non-tech savvy person.

Despite this, there's no doubt that XLM is among the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence today. Since it's similar to Ripple's XRP cryptocurrency, transactions settle within seconds using the least amount of energy possible (unlike Bitcoin). :)



Agree. NANO is probably the fastest cryptocurrency in existence alongside Stellar and Ripple. As transactions settle instantly and without fees, I think that there's a bright future for NANO. It could easily be used for micropayments or nearly anything you could think off without having to worry about fees or waiting for hours to get your transaction confirmed. Being a DAG cryptocurrency, I think that this technology has the potential of replacing Blockchain 1.0 cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin in the long term.

However, only time will tell whenever these cryptocurrencies could become popular and adopted by the mainstream world. Just my opinion :)

BitCoin is still not accelerating, despite the software update, but due to the hardcore and the appearance of Bitcoin cash processing payments through the latter became faster

of course Ethereum! Ethereum, if I'm not mistaken, just instant transactions. I don't even see any other options.

it seems to me that now there is no cryptocurrency faster than Ethereum on the market. I am sure that Ethereum is a leader in this regard

The Gifto token ICO was the first launched on Binance Launchpad and sold out in one minute - one of the fastest ICO`s ever.

There is no doubt that Ethereum is extremely fast when compared to Bitcoin and most cryptocurrencies in existence. However, it can sometimes become extremely slow due to high network load. The CryptoKitties dApp, has made the Ethereum network very slow, due to its popularity in the mainstream world. As such, even if Ethereum is fast, that speed would be reduced according to the number of users on its network.

This usually applies to nearly any cryptocurrency in existence, no matter which technology does it have. Until today, I haven't seen a cryptocurrency which is infinitely scalable (or has unlimited scalability). Any coin no matter how fast it is, will eventually become slow as more people join its network. Which is why I believe that until a new cryptocurrency comes in with unlimited scalability, the level of adoption of cryptocurrencies in the mainstream world would stale.

Nevertheless, there are still a few cryptocurrencies (aside from Ethereum) which are extremely fast. Usually the ones with DAG technology are the fastest including (but not limited to): NANO, IOTA, and ByteBall. There's a newly announced coin called Hedera Hashgraph which claims to be far superior than Bitcoin and Ethereum in terms of scalability. According to their technology, it could be an extremely fast cryptocurrency once released. Just my thoughts ;D

In my opinion this is an etherium. When one contract sends an internal transaction to the account address of another contract, the corresponding code prescribed in the recipient contract is executed.

Do you think like me?
I think DGB is the fastest

I do not know which one is the fastest. I don't think cryptocurrencies need to be too fast either. Ultimately it can only achieve 1 second transmission. It seems that the SEELE of blockchain 4.0 is the fastest. However, the current market value is not as good as Ethereum, and the gap is too great.

Yes. DGB is one of the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence, simply because it has a lower block time than Bitcoin and it has implemented various scalability upgrades such as SegWit and LN. Since DigiByte is a cryptocurrency designed for micropayments, it's no wonder why it’s extremely fast. However, it's one of the most undervalued cryptocurrencies in existence to date.

Another extremely fast cryptocurrency would be NEM. It's like NXT in features and provides smart contract capabilities with its API. One of its unique features is called Delegated Harvesting where you could virtually "stake" your coins without leaving your wallet open 24/7. I believe that it could have a lot of potential in the mainstream world, as a multi-purpose cryptocurrency for micropayments, dApps, and more. :)



Awesome. With a 1 second block time, I think that this cryptocurrency called SEELE is the fastest in existence to date. Everything about it seems great, except that it doesn't have much marketing/promotion (as far as I'm aware). It could experience a greater boost in price, as soon as people recognizes its true potential over the long term. On the other hand, there's another fast cryptocurrency called CREDITS which claims to process millions of transactions per second. Whenever this is true or not, it's yet to be seen on the stable release of the mainnet.  ::)

For quick transfers and the withdrawal of crypto currency in real money, I recently use Ethereum exclusively. Usually it does not take 10 minutes for the money to arrive on my card

You might be interested in this ICO going on for an Australian company called BlockGrain.io  They’re aiming to automate the supply chain with Grain and later on Fruit/Vegetables/Wool. The sale has started.

for myself I used to use Ethereum and Doge for my transactions, because fast enough and light in use do not require a lot of fee for transaction.

Yes. Ethereum and Dogecoin are extremely fast cryptocurrencies for everyday transactions. While Ethereum often becomes slow, due to high network load because of ICOs, Dogecoin on the other hand, is always fast and responsive, making your transactions settle within a few minutes. What's most attractive of DOGE is that fees are negligible, and speeds are blazing fast, making it ideal for quick transfers or micropayments across the globe.

However, there are other cryptocurrencies which are much faster than ETH and DOGE. This is because they have adopted new technologies, that allows them to scale and reduce network load. Such coins are DAG-based ones such as NANO and IOTA, as well as, BFT-based ones like Ripple and Stellar. Transactions in these coins are processed within seconds, and fees are zero in DAG-based coins. Therefore, the future lies in cryptocurrencies capable of delivering massive TPS at unparalleled speeds while at the same time, providing minuscule fees to its users. Just my thoughts ;D

If you are talking theoretical speeds, plenty of networks are lining up to claim their network can perform 1000000tx/s.
In terms of proven speeds and tx/s, XRP handles the highest TX/S at the most volume. This isn't up for debate, it has one of the highest volumes and is in large scale use - as much use as the top currencies, bitcoin, ethereum and litecoin. No other coin comes near the volume and speed of XRP.
Next would be XLM, but I'm not sure they have even had a single 24hr period of >$1bn volume.

Try Dogecoin. This altcoin is not so popular as ETH and others, so you have a chance to earn in this way.  What is more, it has perspectives for large increasing.

Agree. XRP is the fastest "cryptocurrency" to date due to its consensus algorithm and level of centralization. Also, it's very cheap to send money with XRP, but it's biggest downside is that it's extremely centralized. On the other hand, XLM was created by the same founder of XRP (McCaleb), and it has many similarities of XRP. It's fast too, with dirt cheap fees just like its predecessor. Best of all, it's decentralized which is a huge plus if anyone wants to use an alternative to XRP which has the same value proposition of most cryptocurrencies in existence.

Despite this, there are other cryptocurrencies which are proven to be fast in TPS. They're mostly DAG-based cryptocurrencies such as IOTA, NANO, and ByteBall, which can provide zero-fees and near-instant transactions because there are no miners on the network. Some call them the next-generation of cryptocurrencies due to their high scalability. However, for them to become scalable, people would need to use them, as DAG-based cryptocurrencies are based this way. The more usage there is, the better, as the network would perform faster than ever. Therefore, the speed of a cryptocurrency depends on its specs, and the network load it's experiencing when handling transactions from people in the mainstream world. Just my thoughts ;D

I think XRP is by far the fastest crypto thanks to its consensus algorithm, Its one of the fastest means of  sending money and its almost a guarantee that you will not experience any delays whatsoever. The main concern however is the level of centralization, The biggest asset a crypto can ever have is being decentralized, XRP is way too centralized , This has turned the favor to Ethereum's direction,as the coin is also fast, but also very decentralized

Ripple is the leader in performance among the top 10 largest cryptocurrencies. He is still far from Visa, but such a beginning looks quite promising, given the close cooperation of the project with financial institutions. In November, together with American Express and Banco Santander, the first cross-border payments were made. Now American Express customers can make instant transfers to accounts in the British division of Banco Santander using the Ripple blockchain.

The fastest AND most inexpensive CryptoCurrency is Ripple. (4 second transactions costing 0.0007 USD).

Not sure why everyone is recommending random coins that don't answer the question when Ripple statistically is the best performance wise.

Just found another super fast transaction speed (can compare with Ripple). This is Stellar Lumens (XLM). 3-5 second confirmation time Supports thousands of transactions per second

Some other compare if you need: Ripple - 3-5 second ledger closes Ethereum - 15 second block times Litecoin - 2.5 minute block times Bitcoin - 10 minute block times

Waves and Monero are faster than other altcoins. Their developments make members sure in their bright future and being right in choose just there altcoins.

There's no doubt in that, mate. Ripple is one of the most fastest cryptocurrencies to date, probably because of its consensus mechanism, and centralized nature. It's a real-time settlement system, which doesn't require miners or stakers, being extremely efficient in terms of speed and energy consumption. However, it can easily become manipulated by central authorities since it's controlled by a single entity. That's the downside of it, which is why I believe that decentralized cryptocurrencies (despite being much slower than centralized counterparts) will prevail in the end.

Things aside, there's another cryptocurrency which will emerge soon aiming to transform the payments industry. It's called COTI and it claims to process transactions instantly and without fees. Being based on a DAG model, it's practically similar to IOTA, and NANO. As such, I believe that the future lies in such coins, due to their unparalleled speed and high scalability. Therefore, among the fastest cryptocurrencies, there is Ripple, Stellar, Ark, Bitshares, IOTA, NANO and COTI. Just my opinion :)

 well i have not compared all crptocurrencies but from the ones i have used i will say WAVE is very fast with low transaction fees. Doge coin.

For me the most fastest coin to regulates its prices is bitcoin in where we can expect higher rate that get good profits and benefits due to the demand with individuals who are believing.

Usually, I use xlm (stellar) because it deals faster, cheaper transaction costs and I like stellar technology.

Same. I like Stellar simply because it's blazing fast and fees are a fraction of a penny. It's a very practical cryptocurrency for micropayments, and more due to its scalability. Last time I've checked, the Stellar dev team is planning to integrate the Lightning Network to the cryptocurrency. If successful, then transactions would become instant and virtually free as XLM scales to a wider audience. It could surpass popular cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Bitcoin Cash because of said reasons.

Therefore, among the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence today, we've got: Stellar (Lumens), Ripple, Ark, Bitshares, Steem, EOS, IOTA, and NANO. Just my thoughts ;D

yes, i agree with u

16 second is indeed very fast, unless you are falling from a plane without parachute and you need urgently to send your money to your relatives before you land.

In my opinion, I believe nexty is the fastest as I have seen their speed first hand and the transactions fees re very low and almost negligible.

I think ripple, litecoin and Ark are the fastest of all, you can complete transaction in a few seconds, if you ask me , I'd rather stay away from bitcoin if your goal is to complete alot of transactions, they take way too long, but let's see what happens with the new technology that BTC is implementing, lightning network.

IMO, the later cryptos are very focused on dealing with the transaction speed as well as reducing the transaction fee to the minimum for investors. And usually new cryptos with low volume usually have breakneck transaction speed, only when the volume is high, the transaction is slow to start. As such, the ICO Token always provides the quickest confirmation time.

I think the Ethereum has good potential. The speed of transaction Ethereum pretty fast. Personally, I often use Ethereum and everything suits me, of course, it is not necessary to put a very low cost of gas and then transactions will be carried out very quickly.

Exactly. New cryptocurrencies are greatly focused on improving transaction processing speeds, and reducing costs, while at the same time, providing unparalleled security and reliability. Over time, cryptocurrencies are becoming faster and more efficient in processing transactions. Most recently, a new cryptocurrency has been proposed which is based on Directed Acrylic Graphs (DAG) in order to provide instant and zero-fee payments to the world. Such cryptocurrency is called Coti or "Currency of the Internet" which is quite impressive, IMO.

On the other hand, tokens which are deployed on the Ethereum blockchain are quite fast too, but sometimes they become slow if Ethereum's network load is high. Therefore, the more usage a cryptocurrency experiences over time, the slower it may become if it doesn't implement scalability upgrades to boost its transaction capacity. Just my thoughts ;D

For me, LTC is the fastest and its availability in exchange make LTC is the best so far.

It is worth mentioning that Bitcoin is a network with minimal commissions for making payment transactions. That is, you can easily send at least a million dollars without any intermediaries and restrictions anywhere, paying at the same time a few dollars. Here it is appropriate to mention Ripple - it is a modern and more advanced analogue of the international SWIFT system with the ability to make transfers without commissions and almost instantly completely safe money transactions

This ecosystem is still new and it is quite early to point out which is which although some coins have already carved out a niche for themselves. However, competition is still high, scaaleability an transaction speed is what most of them are chasing in this early days.

Theoretically, consensus mechanisms like Ripple or Stellar are faster but then you kind of lose the decentralization of blockchains like Bitcoin or Ethereum...

I think it is ethereum or ETH in light of the fact that even it is a little or a beginning crypto it still quick to develop and increase,Ethereum is exceptionally basic coin that quickly I increase,however bitcoin nowadays is so ease back to build due to transacions,and transfering money.But as I say Ethereum is the quickest developing coins most importantly.

indeed I concur with you. Creditbit is one of the more quickly developing advanced monetary standards in the digital currency fragment. The fast appropriation and improvement has situated Creditbit as the 'Fate of Money'.

That's certainly true, mate. There are some tradeoffs that we need to consider, when making use of a specific cryptocurrency. You cannot enjoy full decentralization while experiencing high TPS at the same time. At the cost of lower speeds and higher fees, comes the decentralized nature you know and trust. On the other hand, at the cost of greater efficiency, and lower fees, comes the centralization factor into such cryptocurrency.

Depending on the people's needs whenever a specific individual wants to send money at a fast and cheap way, or simply wants to secure his/her money against external manipulation, would be such cryptocurrency that he/she will choose. Things aside, I believe that among the fastest cryptocurrencies to date are: Bitshares, Steem, IOTA, NANO, Coti, Constellation, Hedera Hashgraph, Ark, Lisk, EOS, Ripple, and Stellar. However, it's up to you to choose which is the most ideal for you in terms of speed, user-friendliness, and security most of all. Just my thoughts ;D

RaiBlocks with a high degree of confidence can be called the leader in transaction speed (7000 operations per second).  RaiBlocks uses a block-lattice architecture when each account has its own block.  The advantage of this approach is that changes in the chain of accounts can be made instantly, without acknowledgment of the entire network, significantly increasing its throughput.  But since RaiBlocks uses the model proof-of-stake, sending money is associated with two separate transactions.  In the first funds are withdrawn from the account of the sender, in the second - are credited to the beneficiary's account.  This is somewhat burdensome, but the operations are quick and with minimal costs.  In addition, this technology is very scalable.

Nobody is the quickest, everything relies upon the exchange volume at the time that your exchange experienced and if the exchanges volumes builds then the exchange times turn out to be slower and exchange expenses will increment. They all have their great circumstances and their terrible circumstances and in positively trending markets, the coins and their exchanges turns out to be slower because of expanded exchanges

Cryptocurrency which is included in the fastest category is Bitcoin and Ethereum. both of these coins are Cryptocurrency that can generate profits and developments so quickly through trading and investment. with its ability to continue to grow to make it a highly reliable coin.

It would be interesting to make a table with real experiments on speed, up to milliseconds and understand the leader of this race. For me, while it's ripple, stellar and lisk, because it's not compared to others.

The coin called DashCoin can actually send instantaneously, that is concerning two seconds and provides you four confirmations on a payment sent.
It additionally has your payment secured to stop double-spending.

Yeah. It's necessary to test out different cryptocurrencies to help determine which one is the fastest. Results obtained in a testnet will be a lot different than those obtained in the mainnet, since the former has greater load further reducing the TPS of a specific cryptocurrency. But as far as tests are concerned, I've heard that Komodo (KMD) has successfully reached a rate of 1,000,000 TPS. If this same throughput is achieved on the main chain, then it would make KMD one of the fastest and most scalable cryptocurrencies to date.

Aside from the cryptocurrencies you've mentioned (like XRP, XLM, and LSK), I believe that EOS is fast too, since transactions take only seconds to complete, and fees are totally free. As time goes by, new cryptocurrencies might emerge with greater speeds and zero costs. Eventually, we will experience instant transactions and no fees within the future ;)



Exactly. It's one of the most unique features, Dash has brought to the crypto space, since transactions can be settled instantly. This would allow merchants to adopt Dash easily, since they can accept payments in a fast and cheap way unlike most popular cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. For this reason, I believe that Dash has a very bright future not only as an instant cryptocurrency for daily payments, but also as a privacy coin to protect users funds from prying eyes. :)

For me, I would still go to NEO. For me, using NEO is already enough, I have been receiving neo in just seconds and the best part of it, is that you are sending neo coins from one wallet to another by free. Since neo produces hourly gas.

I am not sure if it's the fastest blockchain but the Waves platform is very fast.  Pretty much any altcoin is faster than bitcoin.  Yesterday, it took me over 2 hours to get my exchange deposit confirmations. 

You cannot conclude that this is the fastest, because most of these tokens are used in digital exchanges and there is no real-world use.
If they start using it in the real world like Bitcoin, I might be able to accept when you say they are the fastest and the best.

Almost all coins or tokens are faster in development than bitcoin. I think most altcoins are fast enough with some extreme development.
Some exchanges require more confirmation for certain coins so that it still slows down the deposit, this must be addressed immediately.

For me, the fastest coin to manage the price is bitcoin, where we can expect a higher level of profit.
This is because bitcoin has gained public trust, as well as a very large community, extensive network and fantastic prices.

To be the fastest, you need better development. Creditbit is currently one of the digital currencies that is growing faster in the cryptocurrency segment, even more than coins that have high popularity. Rapid adoption and development has positioned Creditbit as the future of digital money.

I have not fully understood every cryptocurrency they call the fastest, but at the moment I only use ethereum, which has proven to be very fast to come on the market, as well as a large volume, so the risk of loss is minimal.

have you heard Ojut? coins from china. This coin reportedly has a speed that is hundreds of times that of BTC. I think BTC will still be very important for storing wealth and as a link to exchanges and bank accounts, but as USE of cryptos changes, coins like OjuT will become very important in the real world. I think Speed is currently not the main issue with cryptos, as much of the traffic is in and out of exchanges (which can be VERY time-consuming at times). Once the focus changes to actual commercial purchases and 1 to 1 transfers, speed will be king.

I have been send many different coin between exchanges , and i found there are many coin that has faster and very cheap transaction, even there are does not have fee transaction. Some of that coins is DGB, WAVES,  ARK, NANO, NEO, DOGE, LTC.

Yes. Waves is also one of the fastest blockchains in existence today. It's more than just a cryptocurrency since it provides users the ability to trade other tokens with its DEX, earn extra Waves with leasing and more. Transactions are cheap and confirm in seconds, making Waves the practical cryptocurrency for quick micropayments or borderless transfers.

Things aside, there's another cryptocurrency which may prove to be the fastest one yet with over 1,000,000 TPS. It's called Credits (CS) with a tried and tested platform, along with a friendly community.

Therefore, both Waves and Credits add up to the list of fastest cryptocurrencies in existence, which rival Bitcoin and Ethereum's level of usage in the mainstream world. Just my thoughts ;D

I only know two altcoin that is fastest on the transaction, the altcoin is dgb and waves because I already trying to send some dgb and waves from one exchange to another exchange and it does not take too long to appear in my account. but maybe there are any other altcoins that have the fastest transaction so I am sure that in the cryptocurrency, there will be many altcoins that have the fast transaction and don't take any longer to receive.

Of those coins that I know the fastest, most reliable and with small commissions are dogecoin, verge, nano, digibyte, dash and ripple. In general, there are a lot of them, because the development of the crypto industry is very fast, and those new coins that appear and whose with serious intentions, they certainly take into account all innovations, mistakes of the old models and of course will bring something new from themselves.

I would like to think that the fastest cryptocurrency that I have ever used is ripple. I mean the transaction wasn't near instanteneous it was instantaneous. The thing is that there are always new projects that are coming out every day and a lot of them have really fast transaction times. Also I think some people have mentioned this but the waves platform is quite fast.

A well disposed exhortation mate, Choose a coin that was just couple of network that will ensure that the square system isn't yet congested. Like recently discharge coin, Based on what I heard, Dash is the most speediest token to affirm, Can I know what is your motivation for this overview?

Almost all of cryptocurrencies when you send it will appear instantly to your account but the only thing that makes the speed different is the confirmation since it's very crucial.  a cryptocurrencies that have a high hash power but low transaction volume will be more likely to have lower transaction fee and faster aswell, its not a strange thing then if dgb and waves are fast enough because its not as crowded as bitcoin.

Nano is the fastest trading electronic currency on Binance.
Despite a decline in market capitalization every day, Nano has proven to be the fastest-selling altcoin on the bourse, the world's largest electronic money exchange platform.

For me, almost all the transactions that I have made are swift and instant, and I did all of them have good transaction rate. I can exactly pin point one and say it is the fastest. Transactions are always very fast for me, no matter the coin I'm sending or receiving, and they appear or disappear instantly from my account.

Nobody is the speediest, everything relies upon the exchange volume at the time that your exchange experienced and if the exchanges volumes builds then the exchange times turn out to be slower and exchange expenses will increment. They all have their great occasions and their awful occasions and in positively trending markets, the coins and their exchanges turns out to be slower because of expanded exchanges

actually there are much coins that has faster speed transaction if compare with bitcoin.but most of them not supported by large community so their price still in cheap price.personally beside bitcoin , i will save coins that have DAG algorithm.

Ripple became the fastest altcoin I've ever tried, Bitcoin Cash was in second place and Litecoin followed in third place.

Ripple: 1500 operations per second
NEM: 4000 operations per second
RaiBlocks: 7,000 operations per second
Watch out for Ripple, NEM and RaiBlocks. These crypto-currencies offer a unique feature, which lacks bitcoin and ether, - high speed of operation. However, keep your emotions under control and realistically evaluate their prospects.

Nobody is the quickest, everything relies upon the exchange volume at the time that your exchange experienced and if the exchanges volumes expands then the exchange times turn out to be slower and exchange expenses will increment. They all have their great occasions and their terrible occasions and in positively trending markets, the coins and their exchanges turns out to be slower because of expanded exchanges

Bitcoin is the first coin and it is the king of crypto. Investors of this coin are growing high. But there are other altcoins also in market who were produced to be fast. ETH has gained so much popularity in this regard. There are also so many altcoin who are also gaining popularity.

I don't know which one is the fastest. I think these are all dealing with virtual trading data, but I can't deny its value. In my opinion, the fastest is the human brain. These are all created by humans.

There are couple of fastest blockchsins currently on the market. First of all Ripple is one of the fastest so far, but its not decentralised. Steem blockchain speed is around 10k tx/s. The third one is nem, around 3-4k tx.

Interesting observation, mate. According to your results, RaiBlocks (now known as NANO) is one of the fastest cryptocurrencies to date. This could be probably because NANO is a DAG-based cryptocurrency which doesn't require miners at all, neither fees per transaction. I believe that cryptocurrencies based on such consensus algorithm will prevail in the future, as they're the next generation of the blockchain.

As far as DAG-based cryptocurrencies are concerned (aside from NANO/RaiBlocks), there are a few that are quite interesting. Such cryptocurrencies are Constellation, Coti, IOTA, Hedera Hashgraph, and even ByteBall. These are among the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence unlike no other. They're near instant in speed, and best of all, most of them have zero fees.

On the other hand, EOS (although not a DAG-based cryptocurrency) is blazing fast too with zero transaction fees. As such, it looks like the new generation of cryptocurrencies consists of coins that are near instant speeds, without spending a lot of money in fees making them practical for micropayments, tipping, and more.

Therefore, everyday new cryptocurrencies are emerging on the market with faster speeds, and cheaper costs than ever before. Just my thoughts ;D

I know that Ethereum has instant transactions. So far, he has never let me down and always means came as quickly as possible

To compare different projects and find out which of them is the fastest we need to put them in equal conditions, cause network load is different in each project and number of nodes is also different.

It seems to me that the absolute leader in this matter can be considered Ethereum. His transactions take place in just 10 seconds, this is an excellent result  :)

From my point of view, the quickest digital money I take is Bitcoin. His exchanges happen in only a couple of moments, I realize that bitcoin has moment exchanges. until this point, he has never disappointed me. I trust that digital forms of money in fact of such calculation will do instantly, bitcoin is the upcoming age of the blockchain. There are two or three quickest blockchains right now available. As a matter of first importance, bitcoin is one of the speediest up until now.

Agree. A cryptocurrency project could be as fast as lightning, but as more people tend to use it, that capacity or ability to procees an "X" amount of TPS becomes diminished. Perhaps, many cryptocurrencies claim to have outstanding TPS because they've only been tested on a "Testnet", instead of a "Mainnet" to back those claims. This brings a lot of hype, without delivering true scalability to the masses. However, time will tell us which cryptocurrency is among the fastest one yet, as people make use of it everyday.

Until now, I believe that DAG-based cryptocurrencies are the future because of the way they're designed which allows for unlimited or infinite scalability without compromising decentralization. The cryptocurrencies based on this consensus algorithm, become much faster the more people join them. IOTA and NANO are good examples of DAG-based cryptocurrencies, and if they prove to remain highly scalable without compromising decentralization, then I believe that they'll take off easily.

The best thing about the next generation of cryptocurrencies (based in a DAG), is that fees are non-existent. Since miners are no longer needed, as well as validators (in the case of PoS), cryptocurrencies which make use of a DAG will never experience slowdowns or high fees unlike popular cryptos like Bitcoin and Ethereum. This is ideal for a worldwide economy free from middleman, and limitations, as people could send payments in a near-instant fashion and for free.

Nevertheless, there could only exist one cryptocurrency which is the fastest among them all. This will be proven over time as the amount of users increases within their blockchain networks. Just my thoughts ;D

A lot of altcoins are fast moving if can monitor it time to time because everybody's thinking are not the same, some people like this and some people like that I hope you get my point, anyway if I were you I monitor it time to time so that you will know the fastest moving altcoin.

I think it is EOS. The ECH blockchain platform has set a new record on July 19th as most transactions made on this platform exceeds 3,000 units per second.

In my opinion ethereum is the fastest. Transaction will only last for only 1-4 minutes is a very fast response on their system this is why no one doubt the capability of Ethereum.

The ECH blockchain platform has broken two record speeds in data processing within 24 hours. The first EOS broke the record for all other coding currencies at 2,822 transactions per second, followed by 3,000 transactions per second. At the second milestone EOS officially passed the average processing milestone of VISA with 1700.

ETH has gained so much popularity in this regard. There are also many altcoins that are also gaining popularity.
Bitcoin is the first coin and that is King Crypto. This coin investor grows tall and the fastest of the other coins.

I think that bitcoin has progressed a lot with the lighting network, from going to days before receiving a transaction on a congested network to a maximum of 20 minutes is an incredible progress, I also heard that dogecoin works very well and fast, but if we are talking about real speed I think that dash is the most efficient of all, your transactions are completed in seconds.

I have only tried ethereum and so far I am very satisfied on it's performance it's what you are looking for a cryptocurrency very fast confirmation and very cheap fee, this is the reason why they are the second most popular coin in the market although there are many more coming in the market.

For me, bitcoin is obviously the fastest crypto ever existed in the cryptoworld. I am really amazed how this crypto has skyrocketed to 20,000$ last year and it was timely that i am also investing in the first month of the final quarter last year. That was really a big turning point for me in crypto and since then, i a making my portfolio diverse.

There are many new blockchains which are really fast, faste then dash, bitcoin, ethereum and other old blockchains. For example look at the Seele, Sparkster.

many of the new 4 th generation may have very fast transaction speeds such as seele, and the possibilities are very good and certainly many users, the faster the more people use especially if without transaction fees.

Fasterst on this post is confirmation time not price growth. Indeed bitcoin profitable in price but for transaction right now getting slower. I think LTC and Dash is good for confirmation time

Bitcoin is not slower each day, but anyway, the race is no longer about speed per se, but about the combination of speed, acceptance, community and safety.

I agree with you. One speed will not give much, but it is also significant. Bitcoin is valued for its stability and reliability. The speed of transactions is not so small, although if we talk about crypto-currencies, which will be used everywhere in the future, then the question of the speed of transactions will be much more acute.

List of crypto below which we think has faster transactions:

1. Dash
Dash, one of the oldest cryptocurrency in the market that popularized the concept of masternode governance, is a fast transaction coin. The average transaction time for DASH is 2 minutes 39 seconds. This is also known as block time. DASH, with a block size of 2 MB, can process up to 56 tx / second. Block size increased from 1 Mb to 2 Mb last year.

2. Monero
Monero is a pure coin driven by a community that is popular for its anonymity and privacy. This is also quite fast with transactions. It takes an average of 2 minutes to process transactions in the next Monero block. The size of the Monero block is dynamic, which means it will continue to adjust automatically as the average network volume grows.

3. PIVX
PIVX is another coin with fast transaction speed and focus on privacy. Also, this is a proof of coins that provides advantages compared to other coin proofs. This is a DASH fork and has a block time of 1 minute which means it takes one minute to process the transaction on the next PIVX block.

4. NEO
NEO is another proof of fast coin stock by processing transactions and can process at a speed of 1000tx / second. NEO cryptocurrency, called Ethereum killer, takes 15 seconds to process the average transaction in the next NEO block.

5. Nano
Nano, formerly known as Raiblocks, is a relatively new cryptocurrency that was formed in 2017. Thanks to its block-lattice technology, it is very fast and can reach a high scale. It usually takes 5-10 seconds to get confirmation for a successful transaction via Nano.

6. Dogecoin
Dogecoin is a very old cryptocurrency that runs based on evidence of work consensus mechanisms. Crypto is also very fast. It takes an average of 1 minute to process transactions in the next Dogecoin block.

7. Ethereum
Ethereum, the world's computer, has recently faced congestion due to its scalability problem. In addition, he was thinking of moving to evidence of a stake consensus in the future that would make it faster. But from now on it usually takes 14-17 seconds to process transactions on the next Ethereum block and handle up to 12 tx / second.

8. Litecoin
Litecoin is a silver standard in the crypto market. Litecoin, another branch of Bitcoin, is quite fast and powerful. It takes around 2:30 minutes to process transactions in the next Litecoin block.

In terms of scalability before I can consider any crypto the fastest, it has to be used a lot compared to others and ala be among the top 20 cryptocurrencies.
My pick is EOS. IT is secure scalable and very fast. With thousands of transactions per second.

you should take a look at credits (CS). 200k transaction per seconds on their test. their aim is to have 1million tps which is possible.
main net on 4th quarter of this year.

as of now eos is the fastest altcoin i have.

top 10 fastest crypto currency according to Sudhir Khatwani,

I see that there are great opportunities for EOS can develop quickly. Because this is EOS coins very quickly able to master the market. Even being able to be in the position of the top ranks. Then I'm sure that EOS is nice for us to strive for.

in my opinion, all cryptocurrencies have advantages and disadvantages, each use our own choice, which determines and analyzes every coin we will choose.

I tested both Ethereum and Waves and they are both fast, but I consider Ethereum so far as the fastest sometimes it took only 10 to 20 seconds to confirm my transactions, how I wish Bitcoin will be as fast as this two, credits claims they are the fastest but we'll once their platform launch.

Dash,fastcoin and litebitcoin for me ,litebtc has 2seconds of transaction speed which I think it's awesome,I think many cryptocurrencies have already archive fast transaction already .

There are several cryptocurrency that does have a very fast movement. and it's even faster than the other coins. And the crypto is EOS and also Neo. Both are of course already lots get a positive response. Especially in 2018.

In my opinion, the fastest crypto currency is ripple. This ripple of crypto currencies is popular with the speed of transactions carried by these coins. This ripple is used by most people because of its superiority in super-fast transactions. By using ripple, we can do a lot of transactions at once, which is only a few minutes. In addition, to support the speed of the transaction, this ripple is enough to maintain stability when a hard fork occurs. Of course this is the most sought after crypto currency players who have high mobility in buying and selling.

A cryptocurrency that has the fastest frequency in increasing its price is BTC, it has the speed to significantly increase prices. But with that advantage, bitcoin also has weaknesses, it cannot maintain its achievement over a long period. Bitcoin will decline again quickly, and it takes a long time for bitcoin to increase significantly again.

if only for transfer purposes, I would recommend Doge
because Doge only charges a very small fee, no matter how big the transaction you make, the transaction fee is only 10 doge, or about 500 satoshi,
then for the issue of transfer speed, Doge was the champion, I used to withdraw using Doge and indeed in a matter of minutes, my money was in my wallet

Each and every crypto currency is faster, speed of transaction is only depend upon the fee which you initiated when you made transaction.
More you pay fee faster your transaction.
You can example of ETH, bitcoin or any other crypto. Each currency has different set of fee. That fee will be shared with the miners for confirming the transaction.

I only know dogecoin, litecoin, dgb, ethereum, and dash because this is the coins that I am often transferring from one wallet to another wallet on the exchange. but after I read that there are more coins that have the fastest than the coins I mention, I am thinking to try to make an arbitrage trading in the future if I can see the price has a big difference in the price. thank you for telling the other fastest coins in the cryptocurrency and this makes me want to try later.

You are absolutely right. Already many and a few coins in Altcoin, the development and confirmation of transaction time is faster than Bitcoin. Just as Litecoin, Dogecoin, and even Ethereum have faster transaction confirmation times so you can send and receive coins in a trouble-free way.

for the fastest problem the solution is who is willing to spend a lot of fees for transactions for one second, we better find the lowest fee ratio with the fastest speed.

depending on the density of the transaction, if the transaction is solid, the transaction will be long, and vice versa

On this question so quickly and you will not respond. After all, every crypt behaves itself. One falls the other grows. This is the market and clearly say which of them I can not express. I do not even have the right to offend at least one of them.

Great news, amidst the series of cryptocurrencies, it is no longer a new thing that Ethereum has taken over the lead; this is evident with the calibrated technological build up of this alt coin like the smart contract that regulates all forms of transaction between the two parties in contract and ensures transparency, accountability and secured business terms, devoid of a third party or violation of business terms and agreement.

More so, ethereum operates with the application of some software application like the decentralised application (DApp) the regulates the communication channels between the two parties in contract and so many other functions but a few to mention.

This top10 is misleading,
Dash isn't the fastest crypto so far. Even Nano beat it.
They forgot to consider a lot of cryptos.

Actually, its hard to determine which crypto currency is fastest. Here in the world of crypto currency is so volatile that may happen as we didn't expect to happen. I believe some coins will suddenly increase tremendously and some of it will just continue to survive in a very cheap value. Hopefully soon the market will back to its peak and great value so we can able to have a great return.

fastest coin is Monero now

Bitcoin is the fastest cryptocurrency but FastCoin is the quickly becoming the big internet sensation since Bitcoine.

It's hard to say exactly, I'm usually interested in investing altcoin in the top 100 on coinmarketcap, for safety reasons and trust in statistics!
Good luck!

I think these coins are the fastest :-

ETH
RIPPLE
NEO
BTC

Are you serious? Zilliqa is the much faster than all of the mentioned, also EOS would be one of the fastest one. Also I like the Graph technology that is kind of similar to blockchain, but I guess it is much faster and cheaper technology.

Dash is one of the fastest cryptocurrencies to date (just like Nano) due to its Instant Transactions feature. By making use of this, you can send money in Dash to anyone in the world within a few seconds in a near-instant manner. It's one of the most undervalued cryptocurrencies right now, considering that it has been the pioneer of Instant transactions technology. Nano appeared just after Dash did in the crypto space, but has managed to stay on top, probably because of better marketing/promotion. Despite this, Nano is also one of the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence due to the use of the DAG algorithm.

Other cryptocurrencies which are based on the same algorithm (such as IOTA, Constellation, Coti, and Hashgraph) can scale indefinitely without experiencing delays in transaction processing time. However, it is debatable, whenever they're highly secure against external attacks or not. Even DPoS based cryptocurrencies like Bitshares, Steem, EOS, Lisk, and Ark, are extremely fast and cheap in fees. Some of the coins mentioned here even have zero fees, which make them practical for micropayments and more.

However, I believe that there will be only one winner, which could prove to become the fastest cryptocurrency among them all. This is greatly determined with the number of people using a specific cryptocurrency. Hence, the more people are transacting in a blockchain network, the greater the load will be, which causes the performance of the network to decline. Just my thoughts ;D



That's certainly true, mate. Graphene technology developed by Bitshares, is fast and cheap with the ability to handle massive TPS. Cryptocurrencies which make use of such technology are Bitshares, EOS, and Steem making them one of the fastest and most widely used blockchains to date. If you look closely at the Blocktivity website, you'll notice that cryptocurrencies based on such technology are the most used, while other popular cryptocurrencies (like Bitcoin and Ethereum) are behind them. This means that DPoS based cryptocurrencies with Graphene technology are much more scalable and cheaper than PoW and PoS based cryptocurrencies.

Things aside, Zilliqa will be one of the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence once its mainnet launches during the beginning of next year. By making use of Sharding technology, Zilliqa will be able to scale to millions of TPS without delays. Best of all, it's a smart contract platform like Ethereum that has its own programming language for dApps. Therefore, the competition is becoming fierce as new alternatives emerge on the market which rival popular cryptocurrencies into obtaining the top spot in fastest TPS and cost-effectiveness within the blockchain space. :)

I just found out about this problem and I tried to move the Dash from Bittrex to the local Exchange.
Maybe this will be the best choice for me if I succeed in the transaction with 2 seconds.

It seems to me that the EOS project today has a lot of fans precisely because of the speed of the project, because this project has already processed a huge number of blocks, I am sure that the speed of the project is large.

I would have to say ripple, it is hands down the fastest coin in the market. The transactions are received instantly and there is no kind of delay because confirmation of the transaction on the network is so fast. It is true that the speed of bitcoin has gone down significantly and one there is higher volume then the network would be even slower and that is where coins like ripple would be so important.

Last year I wrote that in the first places there will be ethereum and pulsation. Was wrong. I think their place will take EOS)

Then that can be wrong again. Crypto transactions are growing so that really depends on how the network's stability of that coin is fine.

I tried Dogecoin and ethereum and when I used them it was almost an instant transaction that has been confirmed on the spot.

Yes . I see Bitcoin as the first currency and it is the king of cryptography. . But there are altcoins with technology developed and manufactured fast. ETH has gained a lot of popularity in this field, which is used in many transactions.  Easy to use . There are also a lot of altcoin also being popular.

New age blockchains should be very fast, for instance, zilliqa promising around 2-3k transactions per second due to sharding system. Another project that aims very fast transactions is Sparkster, but it is in development.

I have been testing lots of coins and I can say with confidence that Ripple is the fastest coin in crypto so ,also Etherium. Classic and Dogecoin and litecoin  are quick enough then Monero ,Etherium and Bitcoin .

GoChain has an active mainnet running at 1300 Transactions per second, with transactions confirmation times of approx 4-6 seconds on the blockchain. Most important of all, it is 100% Ethereum compatible :o Q2 next year it will be upgraded to 13000 tps  8)

Cryptocurrency is a very good medium. Coins like Paragon, Stellar and Power ledger are great for investments. These are the fastest currencies.

It would be easier if you provided TPS and confirmation times.

Tron though only a little over a year old has really moved forward with 2000tps.
and it will continue to increase it's tps.

The average transaction speed for Ripple is four seconds. In the last six weeks, daily Ripple transactions have quickly gone over one mln.

The average transaction speed for Bitcoin is 78 minutes.

EOS may be one of the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence, but it lacks popularity unlike Ethereum. On top of that, the cryptocurrency is partly centralized, as Block Producers could effectively freeze your account at will, adding the risk of middleman cryptocurrencies were meant to eliminate in the first place. It's unfortunate, but the true reality as EOS resembles the nature of XRP as a centralized cryptocurrency. However, in terms of speed, and costs, EOS wins by a long shot.

There are absolutely no fees which makes EOS ideal for mainstream dApps. If EOS takes the right path to decentralization by making modifications to its Arbitration model, then it could easily rival Ethereum and several other smart contract platforms. When EOS is compared with other cryptocurrencies in existence, it's quite fast but not the fastest at all. I believe that Dash may be the fastest among them all since it provides a feature known as InstantSend. With it, people can send transactions instantly from one Dash wallet to another without hassles. Other cryptocurrencies which are quite fast are: Steem, Bitshares, and Ark.

However, in terms of popularity and mainstream acceptance, Bitcoin is still the winner among them all. If Bitcoin wouldn't have been the first-mover within the market, other cryptocurrencies would've taken its place by now since they're faster, cheaper, and full of features. Nevertheless, it's good to know about the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence, as they provide a better alternative towards Bitcoin when sending money in the least amount of time possible. Just my opinion :)

I think that EOS and POA are now the fastest, but no one uses EOS, since it is super expensive, and nobody knows about POA in the world yet.

Nowadays there are lots of such coins, too many of them on the market, and they are with their own Blockchain  and are faster than Bitcoin. And the biggest problem is that if the network is not overloaded it will work very fast. I think such coins like EOS, Litecoin and some others are fast and good one, and they are even faster than the Ethereum.

The best alternative to ETH in this direction, in my opinion, is difficult to find today. It is this superiority of this coin that allows it to be one of the most popular.

We have a pump group with over 2500 accredited investors that pump and hold coins. The team also spends thousands of dollars on advertisements during the pump making it last longer so everyone can profit. The groups last pump reached over 5500%! - t.me/iblockchainglobal

Personally, I like the high speed Stellar. I am sure that in terms of the speed of transactions, he now remains a confident leader, therefore, he has an excellent potential for further development. Among other very fast cryptocurrencies now I can call Ripple, Ark, EOS, IOTA.

Ethereum, Eos, Neo I think this is ethereum which has a good acceleration time, the growth for these three coins is also significant, they are developing well and have special features

so far all claim it is the fastest only on block creation. how about real world usage like making payment in exchange or service or goods? many claim to be fast, even proven. but how many people are using it at one moment. can it be still effective even on million transaction per minutes?

Bitcoin Network is often overloaded due to the amount of simultaneous transactions.
No matter how fast any other coin can be, you trade for bitcoin and you’ll have to pay fees twice. If it is worth your time - go for a faster one. I’m fine with waiting a bit)

I prefer dogecoin because I consider it very fast and almost no fees. I was never disappointed by it until now and hope I will never be

based on my own experience. ripple is the fastest. XRP are like lightning fast in terms of confirmation on recieving and sending but i am not quite sure if it will retain its speed if it doubled the users. eth is fast but when the cryptokitties were released, it flooded the system and took days to recieve transactions way back then that is why i like to see if xrp will remain its speed despite of number of users.

As far as I remember, Bitshares was one of the fastest blockchains. Now there're some new blockchains such as Quarkchain are proved to be the fastest ones in the market. Go to their websites and look, how many transactions have already been conducted in their network!

   for  me  the  fastest  when  you   say   i   understand    the  ones with  the  highest  price  and i  would  say ripple  and  also xlm  are  really  good  .

As far as I know, EOS is extremely cheap when compared with Ethereum. There are no fees per transaction, and speeds are blazing fast. While there's a cost involved when creating an EOS account, it's affordable and anyone can join the EOS network if they have the minimum required EOS for RAM. On the other hand, POA is not exactly a cryptocurrency but a sidechain which relies on the security of the Ethereum blockchain. Like Loom Network's sidechains concept, POA achieves true scalability on the Ethereum blockchain by allowing developers to deploy their dApps on the POA Network.

This approach allows smart contracts and token transactions to be faster and cheaper than the Ethereum blockchain itself. Which in effect, makes POA one of the fastest sidechains in existence, as well as, the Loom Network. While the POA Network is still unknown to many, it provides many benefits that solve the scalability dilemma. Loom Network's Plasma Chains work the same way, but for these sidechains to really take off, they would need better marketing/promotion.

Other cryptocurrencies which aim to become the fastest ones in existence would be IOST, Constellation, and Zilliqa. The first one named IOST will use sharding and a unique consensus algorithm named PoB (Proof of Believability), to provide unparalleled transaction speeds and low costs. The other one named Constellation will use a DAG just like IOTA and NANO for limitless scalability. And finally, there's Zilliqa which aims to become a smart contract platform like Ethereum with sharding and a formal verification language known as Scilla.

Therefore, new cryptocurrencies would emerge over time which are faster and cheaper than ever. It's the future of borderless payments and could greatly threaten Bitcoin's place as the first largest cryptocurrency by market cap within the future. Just my opinion :)

I've tried a lot of crypto,but ethereum is the fastes.
Certainly there is Pchain, quarckchain and other fast tps products, but it was shown only in test mode and Ethereum is a product working in real conditions

What you've mentioned are good enough and very fast transaction. These alts have good future in crypto world of changes and chances. In due time the weakest will gonna die and the strongest will survive.

The fact is that you still need to take into account practicality and relevance in the cryptocurrency market. Perhaps some coins and platforms in a certain place are profitable, but in the other it is completely useless.

The fastest Blockchain I have ever encountered so far is one that is mostly unknown by people, the name is Nexty, transactions there are so fast, takes just seconds for transactions to be confirmed, I was pleasantly surprised.

Nano, EOs, Dogecoin i tried, which I think are most fastest transactions when compared to all other alt coins .

Pchain(PAI) is going to be the fastest crypto-currency with its own ecosystem and a lot of great technologies on board. They already have demonstrated a bit more than 120k transactions per second in test-network and improving it further.

You cannot decide on one to be the fastest since demands and supply turns to go up and down more often

Fast cryptocurency doesn't mean that is the good cryptocurrency, you know. It depends on investors and some coins needs to hold.

Ripple really remains a confident leader in performance and speed of transactions. I believe that over time, its solutions will improve, so the cryptocurrency will develop steadily. Among other fast cryptocurrencies I can name litecoin and Ark.

I believe that now Ripple and Ethereum remain the best cryptocurrency in these parameters today. They provide high performance, impressive transaction speed. Now I mainly work with Ethereum. Although also high speed today provide Stellar and Ark.

No one is the fastest or slowest. It all depends on the amount of exchange. It depends on the workload or not the workload of the crypto exchange. Coins and their exchanges are slower due to extended exchanges.

I think that btc is the best one and it will remain like this for the long period of time. i am sure that this will happen to you and you will be able to enjoy crypto much, however, we will see later

It's nothing if you try compared ripple with DAG platform that gives you instant transaction and zero fees. Ripple stlll charge a little fees dude. I thought that there are some platforms that they have announced if they have created the fastest protocol more than what has been doing by VISA.

I am absolutely sure that today Ripple remains the fastest cryptocurrency on the modern altcoins market due to the peculiarities of its algorithm. Of course, it assumes a high proportion of centralization; therefore, Ethereum is becoming another priority option for fast transactions.

Ripple is extremely fast probably because of the way it's designed. Being centralized and not requiring miners for consensus, would allow it to become much more scalable than other popular blockchains. Transactions are near instant, and fees are incredibly low. For such reasons, I believe that Ripple might survive in the market, since it provides many benefits that are too hard to ignore for both banks and individuals alike. On the other hand, Ark is also extremely fast as transactions settle in the blockchain within just 8 seconds. Fees are very cheap, and compared with other cryptocurrencies, Ark provides a bridge to other blockchains with its "SmartBridge" feature.

Such feature is still in development, but considering how actively developed Ark is, it'll be a cryptocurrency that's too hard to ignore investing in it. As for Litecoin, it's extremely fast but not as actively developed as other cryptocurrencies. It's speed and low fees are probably because it's not heavily used like other popular cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. However, compared with most cryptocurrencies on the market, Litecoin is relatively stable in value.

Other cryptocurrencies that are quite fast are: Bitshares, IOTA, NEO, Lisk, Steem, Stellar, Cardano, EOS, Constellation, IOST, Zilliqa, Hashgraph, ByteBall, NANO, and many more. Often, cryptocurrencies which make use of a DAG or DPoS as consensus algorithms, are quite fast because they were designed to become scalable for the masses. Some of them are fee-less, which makes them extremely convenient for daily transactions.

Nevertheless, there may be many cryptocurrencies which are faster than Bitcoin and Ethereum, but only one shall be the fastest among them all which I believe it's NANO. Just my thoughts ;D

If you pay attention to what is on the market today, then I think that the fastest today can be considered Nano, although I guess I could be wrong and many will say that this is EOS, everything can be, but I said my point of view.

There will be no money faster than Bitcoin for short or long term investment. It gives us huge profits so you should invest in Bitcoin.

In my opinion, one of the most interesting and fast cryptocurrency is Ripple. Ripple is popular for its transaction speed. This ripple is used by most people because of its superiority in ultra-fast transactions. Ripple maintains transaction speed to maintain its stability. Ripple use the largest participants in the crypto market who have the need to quickly exchange large sums of money when buying and selling.

You can produce whatever results you want during testnet, it's another kettle is fish achieving this during mainnet.

Yes, bitcoin transaction many times and everything is going very slowly there. With the improvement of its blockchain can all change as well as for the transaction, it is not suitable. Yes, such Litecoin, Dogecoin, and even Ethereum can be said faster and work very well. Once I made a transfer of the zilliqa coin and it very quickly reached what I did not expect at the beginning. And the blockchain network commission has a huge role the higher the faster the transaction.

Cryptocurrency are very capable of making us rich became so quickly. because of the trading and investing in Cryptocurrency became a Center for generating profits much faster. so being so good and profits thrive. making Cryptocurrency a very capable for reliable future.

When you are talking about the fastest I'd go with litebtc anyday ,followed by dogecoin ,3seconds of lightening speed lbtc got it but dogecoin wins in transaction fee area

You have correctly listed, such as Litecoin, Dogecoin definitely faster than bitcoin, about Ethereum we can say that it is necessary, but it has decent competitors, which in their parameters are much better, but they have not yet caught up with Ethereum.

There are lots of coin that are very fast....... I do make use of ''STEEM'', it has a 2 second block time not only that it also has zero transaction fees. Have also tried ''Dogecoin'' once it really fast it been the faster have ever use.

I don’t know what about other coins, but Etherium as I work with causes only good emotions. Always transactions pass as quickly and clearly.
Therefore, in terms of speed, it is for me number 1.
Sincerely yours.

Those famous are the only we can see just like you mention but I think in future there will be new to rise and surpass those famous projects now.

I don't know for sure which one is the fastest but I have NEXTY coin and it's so fastest, it happened at an instant and i was really wowed by the instant transfer from my wallet to the exchange where i was trading the code.

some people talk about Blockchain 4.0 and Quarkchain. there is something in it, because this coin is constantly growing even during this flat period.

I have heard about the fabulous speed of Dash, but personally I have not tested how fast transactions go there, and I have little trust in any aggregators.

The coins I've mentioned previously, are among the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence. However, that could change, as the network load increases according to the number of users on the same. As far as I know, only 2 consensus algorithms seem to be the most scalable which are DPoS and DAG. Cryptocurrencies which make use of said algorithms can provide near-instant transactions and low costs. Some are even fee-less like EOS, NANO, and IOTA. This means that the future belongs to the next-generation of cryptocurrencies which are the fastest possible for worldwide transactions.

As such, the list of cryptocurrencies which are the fastest ones, is growing every day. Such list includes: EOS, IOTA, NANO, Constellation, IOST, Zilliqa, Ark, Bitshares, Lisk, Ripple, Stellar, DASH (Instant transactions), and even ByteBall. However, there could be more than that as new cryptocurrencies explore different technologies and features along the way. Therefore, I believe that those are the fastest cryptocurrencies in the meantime. Just my opinion :)

The cryptocurrencies have their difference in the transaction speed. Maybe as you said Dash has a fast speed, it is because there is a lot of miners who supports dash, through that, the confirmation is also fast enough to enable the transaction.

Agree, actually I rarely do bitcoin transactions because of the long confirmation problem and the high cost fee, for transactions I rely on doge because confirmation is very fast just a few minutes, and the fee per transaction is very cheap only a few doge, I recommend doge for you

I am always convert my bitcoin to ethereum and i think ethereum is good coin with faster confirmation. I am using ethereum because never try another coin and so far, i am very satisfy using ethereum for transfer

There are several projects that are trying to reach the maximum possible speed. This is Seele and Ethereum. Who will succeed faster, remains a question.

I do not have exact information, but I can say that in my opinion the fastest coin is bitcoin cash. I've heard a lot about it, read a lot. So I have such opinion

It's all so subjective. Many networks say that they have the fastest transactions, but because of the weak load, they can not prove it.

As far as I know VISA allows up to 1500 transactions per second, XRP allows up to 1000, BCH around 3500. But I heard about Traxion project, this coin is not on the market yet, but they have tested their blockchain and it allows up to 100.000 TPS.

Well, VISA is not a cryptocurrency, BUT a company of plastic cards. Soon Ethereum will compete in terms of transaction speed. New platform coming soon

That is the one of the important question in blockchain space. Too many people try to develope fastest blockchain. But always they can test that without too much load. I know last 9 10 months all of the blockchain icos trying to reach the biggest tps speed. But i think that is not the most important thing in blockchain. I am not sure now but i searched mastercards or visas speed. We dont need to reach 1m tps for now. It can be good but  most important things is realworld usecases.

I think Ripple XRP is the fastest cryptocurrency in the market because it was designed for lightning speed and reliability.

I will tell you that it is impossible to say specifically which blockchain periodically releases updates that speed up the speed of processing transactions of a particular network.

I have heard about high speed transactions on Credits (CS) blockchain but as i know it's only testnet now with few nodes and real result may differ from tests.

Exactly. Any cryptocurrency can be fast if it doesn't have high network load. Depending on the number of people using it for daily transactions, the speed can either increase or decrease, as well as, costs. Bitcoin could've been fast like old times if there wasn't any high network load at all. However, due to the increased adoption of Bitcoin as a cryptocurrency for the mainstream world, speeds have declined, and fees have risen, causing the need for the pioneer cryptocurrency to scale ASAP.

The same thing could happen with other cryptocurrencies since their speed and cost are determined with the current network load. While it's true that there are some consensus algorithms which are much efficient than others, they could become as slow as PoW if they gain high load. These are the facts, however many cryptocurrency projects are simply claiming to be the fastest, to bring a lot of hype from investors and ordinary people.

They would need to prove their speed by performing a series of tests, which anyone could audit. Speaking of this, Credits aims to be one of the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence. Compared with many overhyped cryptocurrencies, Credits has taken the opportunity to prove its claimed speed and security by performing an audit by a well-known company. This shows, that Credits is truly a cryptocurrency that could handle large TPS while delivering low fees and unparalleled security.

Other cryptocurrencies which are fast but haven't been put to the test are: Electroneum (Instant Transactions), and Lightning Bitcoin (LBTC). The last one uses a DPoS consensus algorithm, and it's quite fast compared with most cryptocurrencies out there on the market. However, its network load is low, which means that it's not as widely adopted and used as other popular cryptocurrencies we know and love today.

Nevertheless, time will tell us which cryptocurrency would stand the test of time, to deliver the fastest speeds and lowest costs, while retaining security and decentralization, which is most important. Just my opinion :)

Ethereum might be the fastest cryptocurrency right now. Bitcoin air will become the fastest cryptocurrency after sometime later it is under development right now. So we have to wait for until their they complete their development.

Considering the current situation is happening i think perhaps the ripple is creating the fastest and most stable growth. The percentage of growth of the ripple is huge and worth waiting in the coming time.

Now there are a lot of projects that aim to set the speed of operations. Some of them, who have a good team, grow strongly in price after entering the stock exchange. Here is one example - QuarkChain

In 2018, the emergence of EOS is, in my opinion, the most promising event in crypto. EOS is one of the fastest crypto-conversions. Unlike Ethereum, it is not currently popular. This is a temporary condition. He is fast and pushy.

lots of fast coins, they have their own advantages from safe and invisible and fast transactions. but I like dogecoin now because besides fast doge it has a cheap enough cost to send a little money and this is amazing

There are a lot of fast blockchains. Syscoin, Dogecoin, Ripple, Waves and many others. I am waiting for the developers of ethereum to implement casper technology. This will make ethereum very fast.

Network transaction leaders are:
Ripple-1,500
Bitcoin Cash - 60
Litecoin -56
Dash - 48
Ethereum - 20
Bitcoin -7.
There is still such a coin XEM, If the developers launch Catapult update, the transfer rate will increase to 3,000 transactions per second.

I think it is still dash. Because your transfer can be done in it instantly, with just an approximate second you already receive your fund. And if you go beyond the crypto space. Many tokens now are good at sending in a faster way.

Judging from the frequency of its speed, bitcoin has a very fast frequency and cannot be defeated by any coin in crypto. From the advantages of bitcoin, bitcoin also has the characteristic that its increase cannot occur frequently, and its increase is difficult to predict. Become a good recommendation to invest, provided you can be patient in facing bitcoin.

to profit quickly and pretty much we can use trading. the ability of trading to give us more of the profits shown by the results obtained in more and more markets are increasing. so trading can give us many profit.

Lot of fastest cryptocurrencies are as following:-- Bitcoin, Dogecoin, Litecoin, Ripple, Neo and Dash etc. Both are provide huge potential and it gives huge profit. People also have full faith on it and market is also very strong.

Nice observation, mate. Without a doubt, Ripple is by far the fastest cryptocurrency in existence today. This is probably because of its centralized design, compared with most popular cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. I would like to add Stellar to the list as it has somewhat the same technology as Ripple (XRP), but with a greater level of decentralization than the latter. Stellar's block times are blazing fast like Ripple, and it has recently implemented smart contract functionality with SSC (Stellar Smart Contracts).

Tokens can be easily launched on the Stellar blockchain, which serves as a greater alternative to Ethereum due to its high TPS and dirt-cheap fees. Several decentralized exchanges have been launched which make use of the Stellar blockchain for quick settlements. As such, it looks the future lies on cryptocurrencies that deliver near-instant speeds at the lowest cost possible.

On the other hand, NEM (XEM) is quite fast too, with smart contact functionality (NEM's API) and plenty of advanced features. Once Catapult release becomes public, then without a doubt, TPS will rise to unprecedented levels. Catapult is somewhat similar to Bitcoin's Lightning Network. This means that NEM and many other cryptocurrencies we know and love today will become highly scalable in the future.

Nonetheless, cryptocurrencies would become even faster if they would provide zero confirmations (0-conf) without compromising security. Bitcoin Cash is already working on that, and if it becomes a success, then transactions would be instant, making it convenient for merchants and businesses alike. Just my opinion :)

Also I would to mention a big update from Ethereum side. Vitalik was talking about network emprovements that will allow to speed up the network to around 1000 tx/s. 2019 will bring nice updates.

Nice. Without a doubt, Ethereum will scale until it becomes flexible enough for people in the mainstream world. Increasing TPS is key towards the adoption of Ethereum and its tokens among individuals, businesses and corporations alike. The upcoming Casper PoS and Sharding upgrades, will totally rock Ethereum as they drastically change the smart contract platform for the better. Right now, Ethereum might be slow and costly in fees, but everything is bound to change sooner or later.

Once it scales, then it could be compared to other cryptocurrencies which are fast enough for the mainstream world. On the other hand, Tron is a smart contract platform which could greatly rival Ethereum since it's much faster, cheaper, and it's fully compatible with the EVM. This means that existing developers within Ethereum, could migrate their projects easily within the Tron network, without having to learn a new programming language at all.

Therefore, the future lies in not only fast and cheap cryptocurrencies for daily transactions, but also for smart contract platforms that are highly scalable for the mainstream world. In my opinion, the fastest cryptocurrencies right now are: Bitshares, Tron, EOS, Ark, Lisk, Stellar, Ripple, Nano, IOTA, NEO, and even Credits. :)

in any case the update of Constantinople failed the testing. perhaps the ethereum team is implementing everything with good results in January 2019.

It also does not matter what technologies one or another coins use, because it doesn’t affect the price of a coin because the price is formed from crowd manipulations, look at trends which are now in market  ;)

The Ethereum constantinople upgrade failed on the testnet. That's the main reason, why Casper has been delayed for Ethereum until 2019. In the bright side, Ethereum will scale in the safest way possible compared with other alternatives which scale quickly without ensuring the quality of the implemented upgrades. As such, it's not quantity that matters (like number of TPS) but quality instead. If Ethereum could scale safely with it's Casper PoS and Sharding, then it would become a success.

By then, Ethereum will become one of the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence, just like in its early days. In the meantime, we could enjoy altcoins with near-instant speeds that make our life much easier. DAG cryptocurrencies seem to be the best bet towards allowing users to make micropayments at the least time possible without any additional costs. On the other hand, DPoS cryptocurrencies such as EOS and Tron are also fast with cheap costs. This means that cryptocurrencies are only getting better over time, which will result in massive adoption from people within the mainstream world.

Nonetheless, if you're looking into the fastest cryptocurrencies in existence, then DPoS and DAG cryptocurrencies are the ones that fulfil such purpose. It's been proven that PoW based cryptos like Bitcoin and Litecoin are extremely slow and resource intensive. Which is why, the future lies on PoS, DPoS, and DAG for greater scalibility and energy efficiency. Just my thoughts ;D

I believe bitcoin is much fastest than other coin because as you look in its market value it increases highly and widely accepted investors as well. I hope it will remain stable in its price and continue to grow more.

I do not think that several miliseconds really can change a thing, so I am not sure that there is a point in making every new platform faster and faster.

for now what I believe is coin with a good speed of delivery is XRP,
the fastest I've ever sent using XRP is 5 seconds, between one wallet with another wallet,
but not including wallet exchanger, because usually the wallet exchanger requires manual confirmation every time you do a WD or deposit.
and besides XRP, I also recommend Stellar, because the delivery is also fast.

I come across a lot of solutions that saying that they are the fastest and I have no time to compare all of them, but I am sure that several researchers have done it.

There are too much of altcoins, so there will not be certain answer and you need to look what altcoin is the best for you in terms of use to make a choise.

Money drives people mad, it's sad! People buy XRP cause it's stable, but it has many demerits and doesn't meet the purposes of the community! The coin is centralized, so be cautious when buying in long-term!

I would say any small blockchain is instant.
Basically, the way the technology works is that the less amount of transactions, the less volume of confirmations that need to be made, means faster speed.
At a certain point, it becomes basically instant.

But if you are looking for a crypto that can always be fast, you will have to look for non blockchain projects.
The three biggest now are IOTA, Nano, and Byteball.
Out of these, I would say Nano is the most reliable and fastest.

there are a lot of projects going on right now that promise to have incredible speed, but that's just it, they are only promises.
Whether they can deliver anything, like 1mil transactions per second, than that would also feel "instant".

Every millisecond is important if you want to be a global digital currency. Bitcoin can handle less than 10 transactions per second and Ethereum can handle around 20. VISA, for example, handle around 2000 tps and that number can go up to 4000 tps.

I think that EOS or TRON will be the fastest blockchains now if we consider the transactions per second rate.
But, later, after IOTA will be more used, IOTA will be the fastest because Tangle is a nice solution how to solve the scalabillity problem ;).
