# Git3 uses Irys blockchain for permanent storage with claimed 100K+ TPS performance

Git3 uses Irys blockchain as its storage layer, claiming 100K+ transactions per second performance for permanent Git repository storage. The architecture stores complete Git history on-chain with cryptographic verification and blockchain timestamps for code integrity.

Irys is positioned as superior to alternatives like Arweave and Filecoin because it integrates Git-specific logic (branches, commits, history) rather than providing generic file storage. The blockchain's throughput (100K+ TPS) is presented as sufficient for developer-scale Git operations without performance bottlenecks.

Each repository is tagged for efficient retrieval using `@irys/query`, enabling direct blockchain querying without intermediary indexing layers. The permanent storage model means code cannot be censored or removed once committed, providing censorship resistance and historical preservation.

## Evidence

- Git3 MVP stores complete Git history on Irys blockchain with cryptographic verification
- Project claims "Irys Performance (100K+ TPS)" as competitive advantage in differentiation section
- Direct blockchain querying implemented using `@irys/query` (Phase 1 deliverable: "Direct blockchain querying using @irys/query")
- Repository tagging system enables efficient data retrieval (Phase 1: "Repository tagging system for efficient data retrieval")
- Irys positioned as Git-native versus generic storage (Arweave, Filecoin) in competitive landscape section
- Phase 1 includes "Complete Git history import to Irys blockchain" as completed deliverable

## Challenges

The 100K+ TPS claim is not independently verified in this source. No performance benchmarks, stress tests, or comparative data provided. The claim that Irys integrates "Git logic" better than alternatives is asserted but not demonstrated with technical specifics.

Storage costs and scalability economics are not addressed—permanent storage of large repositories with full history could become expensive at scale. No data on actual transaction costs or storage pricing from Irys is provided.
