Bankless · Cloudflare Needs 100M TPS from Crypto to Fix the Internet | CEO Matthew Prince · 25 May 2026 podcast

I love that goal.

Yeah.

So, okay.

So right now, Cloudflare handles any given second about half a billion requests.

So 500 million requests per second flowing through our system.

When we look at those requests, we think that somewhere between 1% and 10% of those are requests that you could actually monetize in some way that people would pay for having access to.

And again, fractions of pennies.

for it.

But if you imagine that just the traffic to the internet is going to continue to grow like crazy, those fractions of pennies can add up pretty quickly.

It's sort of the Superman 3 or office space business model where you're trying to find fractions of pennies that are out there.

But that's, it depends how old your audience is.

And that might have gone over a lot of their heads.

Spotify does this model, right?

I mean, for streaming.

It's exactly the same.

It's the same thing, right?

And so I think that we understand what we have to do.

And the good news is that 402,

has existed as a sort of response code for a long time, which is the response code that says payment is required.

And so we, along with Coinbase and a handful of others, are working on creating what does that foundation look like?
