Parallel Execution

Processing multiple transactions simultaneously instead of one at a time.

Definition

Processing multiple transactions simultaneously instead of one at a time. Traditional blockchains are sequential, but chains like Solana, Sei, and Monad process non-conflicting transactions in parallel for much higher throughput. It's a key innovation for achieving the speed needed for mainstream adoption.
