# Overview

The bloXroute Blockchain Distribution Network (BDN) is a Layer-0 network designed to accelerate how blocks and transactions move across blockchain networks. It provides a faster, more efficient alternative to traditional peer-to-peer propagation by leveraging a globally optimized relay infrastructure.

The BDN is currently live on:

* **Ethereum (ETH)**
* **BNB Chain (BSC)**

#### **Key Benefits**

* **Speed**: Propagate blocks and transactions in milliseconds.
* **Scalability**: Support high-throughput use cases without affecting consensus.
* **Efficiency**: Improve responsiveness for validators, trading systems, and infrastructure services.

#### **Who It's For**

* **DeFi Traders**: Achieve faster market access and lower slippage.
* **Validators**: Receive new blocks earlier, improving block inclusion and performance.
* **Infrastructure Providers**: Enhance reliability and reduce end-to-end data delays.
