Major Ethereum validators are testing OptimumP2P, a high-performance memory layer designed to address the network’s bottlenecks. Early results show a 10x reduction in latency under high-traffic conditions, promising significant improvements for Ethereum’s scalability.

  • OptimumP2P uses algebraic equations instead of traditional gossip protocols to reduce redundancy and improve data propagation efficiency.
  • Initial tests show 10x lower latency, stable 10MB message handling (vs. Gossipsub's 4MB limit), and zero message loss under stress.
  • Validators testing OptimumP2P control 14% of Ethereum's staking share, with a planned Hoodi testnet deployment this summer.
