BitShares, apparently. Press release June 10, 2015, claimed 100,000 t/s.
Never heard of it. I suspect their claim is either bogus or their coin is a database.
There are far too many cryptocurrencies to keep track of, bit even if the claim is false, Bitcoin is still absurdly slow compared to existing normal systems.
What existing “normal” systems?
Visa and Mastercard, like I wrote a few layers above.
My bad, I thought we were comparing global decentralized and trustless systems.
