  Yes, the Lightning Network is designed to handle a high TPS for digital currencies. It is a layer 2 scaling solution built on top of blockchain networks like Bitcoin and Ethereum. By enabling off-chain transactions, the Lightning Network can significantly increase the throughput of digital currency transactions. It achieves this by creating a network of payment channels that allow users to conduct transactions without the need for every transaction to be recorded on the blockchain. This greatly reduces the time and cost associated with each transaction, making it possible to handle a high TPS.
