Episode notes
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.
Use Determinism For Tighter Trading
- Traders should prefer deterministic networks to quote tighter markets and act on smaller arbitrages.
- Use private/high-performance connectivity when microsecond-level timing materially affects strategies.
Be Ready For Physical Ops
- If you bring fiber to DoubleZero, connect the physical cable and integrate it into the network to earn rewards.
- Expect hands-on operations: maintenance, monitoring, and responding to outages are required.
