This week, the Leios team achieved a significant milestone by successfully demonstrating protocol viability at 1,000 TPS, completed comprehensive attack surface analysis, and made substantial improvements to simulation and verification tools.
This week, the Leios team achieved a significant milestone by successfully demonstrating protocol viability at 1,000 TPS. They also completed a comprehensive attack surface analysis and made substantial improvements to simulation and verification tools.

## High-throughput demonstration

- Successfully completed a 1,000 TPS experiment using basic 300-byte non-Plutus transactions
- Demonstrated the viability of Leios protocol operation at extremely high throughput levels
- Validated protocol performance under stress conditions significantly beyond current Cardano capacity
- Documented detailed findings in the [1000 TPS analysis](https://github.com/input-output-hk/ouroboros-leios/blob/main/analysis/sims/2025w27/analysis.ipynb).

## Security analysis

- Completed comprehensive attack surface analysis for the second technical report
- Completed a comprehensive attack surface analysis for the second technical report
- Defined terminology and taxonomy for potential Leios attack vectors
- Categorized major attack types and their potential impacts on protocol security
- Enhanced understanding of protocol vulnerabilities and mitigation strategies.
