Episode notes
Public Internet Limits Blockchain Speed
- Public internet routing is indirect and latency-prone, limiting distributed blockchain performance.
- High-performance blockchains need more deterministic, direct networking to reach their throughput potential.
Software Can Scale If Network Matches It
- Validator client benchmarks demonstrate software can handle huge TPS when networking is not the bottleneck.
- Networks like FireDancer showed million-transaction-per-second capability, but only over optimized networks.
A Virtual Dedicated Fiber Network
- DoubleZero composes independent fiber contributors into one virtual high-performance network.
- The network provides direct, low-latency routing and higher bandwidth between validators and RPCs globally.
