Shred Stream
Overview
The Shred Stream provides real-time access to Solana block shreds as they propagate through bloXroute’s Optimized Feed Relay (OFR). This is the earliest point at which block data becomes available - making it essential for low-latency trading, order flow analysis, and block reconstruction.
By subscribing to the Shred Stream, users receive decoded shred packets directly from bloXroute’s OFR infrastructure in the selected region.
