mump2p: Optimum's Core Product
mump2p is @get_optimum's flagship product: a high-performance data propagation layer for Ethereum powered by RLNC.
It runs as a lightweight sidecar alongside your Consensus Layer client, requiring no changes to your existing infrastructure or access to your validator keys.
By encoding blocks and blobs into optimized RLNC packets, mump2p enables significantly faster and more efficient propagation across the network while seamlessly falling back to standard Gossipsub if needed.
Tests showed 6โ20ร faster block and blob propagation, ~150 ms average propagation time, and up to 95% lower bandwidth usage.
For validators, this means faster attestations, improved MEV opportunities, fewer missed block proposals, and higher potential rewards - all without upgrading hardware.
mump2p is a simple, plug-and-play way to make Ethereum nodes faster, more efficient, and better connected.
I wonder how X's algorithms will react to the fact that I have barely posted anything for the past month...๐ถ
I missed so much... A lot of news passed me by, and I do not even know what the current meta is anymore.
...on the bright side, during that time I had the chance to discover such a wonderful country as Georgia๐ฌ๐ช
RLNC in 1 Minute
Most networking protocols send near-complete copies of data, leading to higher bandwidth usage and increased latency.
Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) takes a different approach: data is split into small chunks, which are then turned into random linear combinations. The receiver only needs any sufficient set of these coded packets to reconstruct the original data.
โข Lower bandwidth overhead
โข Resilient to packet loss
โข Intermediate nodes can recode and forward data without full decoding
โข The larger the network, the more efficiently data propagates
That's why @get_optimum uses RLNC as the foundation of its mump2p propagation layer, delivering 6โ20ร faster block and blob propagation while reducing bandwidth usage by up to 95%.
RLNC - it's a fundamentally different way to move data across decentralized networks.
