How Many Transactions Does Ethereum Do Per Day?

As of June 2018, Ethereum processes an average of 15 transactions per second. In comparison, Bitcoin processes 7 transactions per second and Visa processes 24,000 transactions per second. Ethereum’s 15 transactions per second is a far cry from Visa’s processing power, but it is a significant improvement over Bitcoin. The number of transactions that Ethereum can handle per day is limited by the number of blocks that can be mined in a day.

NOTE: Warning: The answer to the question, “How many transactions does Ethereum do per day?” is highly variable and can fluctuate significantly depending on the time of day and other factors. Therefore, it is not recommended to rely on any one source for an exact answer as it may not be accurate or up-to-date.

There are currently 12.5 ETH rewarded for each block mined, which comes out to about 300,000 ETH mined per day. This works out to about 4.5 million transactions per day.

Ethereum’s transaction processing speed is limited by the number of blocks that can be mined in a day. However, the number of transactions that Ethereum can handle per day is still significantly higher than that of Bitcoin.
