3/3 How does the Optimum protocol eliminate these delays?
@get_optimum solves the problem at the routing level using RLNC (Random Linear Network Coding) technology.
Special network nodes (Flexnodes) transmit not raw chunks of data, but their encoded mathematical mixes. To assemble a block, a node no longer needs to wait for a single specific “lost” fragment—it’s enough to receive any N encoded packets.
No repeat requests = no latency “tails.” The network becomes loss-tolerant, data propagates instantly, and TPS scales without artificial limits!

1/3 What is Tail Latency, and why is it the invisible killer of Web3?
Imagine a supermarket: the average checkout time is 2 minutes, but sometimes a customer’s card doesn’t go through, and the line stretches to 15 minutes. This rare but maximum wait time (for example, the 99th percentile, or P99) is what’s known as Tail Latency.

In blockchains, the average data transmission time may be ideal, but it is precisely these rare microslacks at individual nodes that determine the actual performance of the entire network.

2/3 How does Tail Latency Impact TPS (Transactions Per Second)?
Blockchains use P2P networks (gossip protocols) to propagate blocks. If a data packet gets lost along the way, a node is forced to request it again.
While part of the network waits for the “lost” bytes (creating that same long tail of latency), validators cannot reach consensus. To keep everyone in sync, developers have to artificially limit block size and the rate at which blocks are released. The result: the network slows down, and TPS drops.

Gossip Protocol vs. Optimum Network

Gossip (Broken Telephone): Nodes whisper to one another. By the time a message makes its way through everyone, time is lost and the network becomes overloaded with unnecessary traffic.

Optimum Network (Telepathy): Thanks to network coding (RLNC), data isn’t passed along a chain. The network instantly synchronizes the shared state for all participants at the same time.

❌ Gossip: Slow, sequential, with duplication.
✅ Optimum: Instantaneous, parallel, like a shared mind. @get_optimum

Who benefits from Optimum? @get_optimum

1: Validators
Main benefit: Get more MEV (Maximal Extractable Value).

Why it matters: Optimum’s architecture allows validators (or sequencers) to sequence transactions more efficiently. This maximizes their revenue from fees and arbitrage, creating a strong economic incentive to support and secure the network.

2: Users
Main benefit: Fast transactions and low fees.

Why it matters: Regular users get a seamless experience (UX). By optimizing processes, transaction confirmation wait times are minimized and gas costs are significantly reduced, making dApps more comfortable to use.

3: L2 / L3 Networks
Main benefit: Global scalability.

Why it matters: Layer 2 and 3 ecosystems (Rollups, AppChains) can dramatically increase their throughput. Optimum takes the load off the base layer, allowing L2/L3 networks to handle huge transaction volumes without bottlenecks.

@ItsMark013 when will be good scenarious

[Jelka @jelly1cloud]

@codynium nice story, man

[Jelka @jelly1cloud]

@codynium it's really hard for me
