đ¨ NEW: @ShoalResearch just dropped a deep dive on Raiku, Solana's high-performance edge compute layer
A TL;DR on what youâll find in the report đ§ľđ
1/7

The problem:
High-frequency traders on Solana see failure rates up to 75% during congestion.
Imagine launching a financial product and being told your transaction "might fail unless you spam it or bribe the validator."
We have a solution for that!
2/7
Enter Raiku: Specialized execution infrastructure that makes Solana transactions fast, reliable, and guaranteed.
Built as a sidecar to Solana's validator network, Raiku enables developers to:
⢠Reserve blockspace ahead of time
⢠Schedule transactions precisely
⢠Avoid mempool chaos
3/7
How it works: Edge compute environments
We introduce specialized execution zones that run parallel to Solana's main chain, powered by the same validator set.
Think express lanes on a highway, not separate roads.
4/7
Use cases:
⢠HFT with microsecond precision
⢠Institutional-grade payment infrastructure
⢠Hybrid CEX/DEX exchanges with superior user experience
5/7
6/ What makes this different from L2s:
â Ethereum L2s: Fragmented liquidity, complex bridging, separate tokens â
Raiku: One network feel, unified accounts, composability preserved
"Edge compute environments" vs "rollups" -> enhancement rather than separation.
