The average number of Transactions that can be included in a single Block on a Blockchain network, reflecting the block’s capacity to handle transaction volume under typical conditions. This metric is calculated as the Block Size divided by the Smallest Transaction Size, rounded down to the nearest whole number to account for the maximum integer number of transactions that fit within a block’s data limit, based on the blockchain’s protocol specifications. Example: If a Block has a Block Size of 1,000,000 bytes and the smallest transaction size is 250 bytes, the Transactions per Block is calculated as 1,000,000 divided by 250, which equals 4,000. This indicates that up to 4,000 transactions can be included in the block.
