Recently, a major upgrade was completed on a leading public blockchain. According to official data, after the upgrade, its block time was optimized from 0.75 seconds to 0.45 seconds, with a significant improvement in performance metrics.

Meanwhile, another mainstream public blockchain in the industry currently maintains a stable block time of around 0.39 seconds. This means that after the upgrade, the two chains are now quite close in basic performance.

Interestingly, the market has always held different views on the development routes of various public chains. Some projects, in pursuit of extreme speed, make trade-offs in decentralization and rely on professional infrastructure support. This upgrade reflects that, through technical optimization, public chains can maintain their unique features while continuously breaking through performance benchmarks. This is a positive signal for the long-term development of the entire ecosystem.

ngl the 0.45s block time is solid, but that 0.39s competitor still got 'em by the nuts... been through enough difficulty epochs to know speed alone doesn't win the war tho

0.45 seconds? Still a bit slow. The key is whether decentralization has been compromised—that's what players really care about, right?

But between 0.45 seconds and 0.39 seconds, how much does the user actually feel the difference? The key is whether the ecosystem is vibrant enough.

0.45 seconds? Uh, sounds good, but what about the gas fee? That's what I care about. Sitting around for half an hour late at night is still way too expensive.

0.45 seconds is still slow. The real bottleneck is not this at all; the ecosystem is the key.

0.45 seconds? Still didn't catch up to 0.39, almost there haha

Want to compare 0.45 seconds with 0.39 seconds? That's close enough, they're not even on the same level. Although there's progress, is this kind of optimization really that important?
