Solana fake transactions are large volumes of bot-driven, mostly failed operations that inflate on-chain metrics; analysis shows extreme failure rates (99.95% in a flagged 11 million sample) which misrepresent real throughput and distort “transactions per second” and network usage statistics.
Bot-driven volume inflates TPS metrics
High failure rates mean reported transactions do not reflect successful user activity.
Data point: a 11 million-transaction sample contained 99.95% failed transactions; Sept. 1, 2025 saw 658,460 attempts with only 155 successful.
Solana fake transactions: immediate analysis of bot-inflated metrics and how to verify real throughput. Read steps to validate on-chain activity. (150-160 chars)
How is Solana allowing bots to inflate transaction metrics?
Solana fake transactions occur when automated actors submit large numbers of transactions that mostly fail but are still recorded in block history, inflating published metrics. Independent observers report samples where a single bot accounted for millions of attempts with success rates below 0.1%, which misrepresents real throughput and user demand.

On-chain samples reported by industry observers show concentrated activity. In one flagged case a bot performed roughly 11 million transactions over 30 days with a reported 99.95% failure rate. On Sept. 1, 2025 a total of 658,460 transactions were attempted, with only 155 successful (0.024% success). These figures indicate the majority of recorded transactions were not meaningful for users or dApps.
Critics argue that inflated transaction counts can be presented as proof of scale and adoption, despite high failure rates. A Cardano stake-pool operator (SPO) publicly highlighted these anomalies, suggesting the metrics do not reflect genuine user activity. Supporters point to low fees and network behavior as partial explanations rather than deliberate manipulation.
