Thor ShredStream
Raw Solana shreds streamed via UDP - the fastest on-chain signal available
What is Thor ShredStream?
Thor ShredStream provides raw Solana shreds via UDP, giving you the earliest possible access to transaction data. Shreds arrive before blocks are confirmed, enabling sub-second reaction times for trading strategies.
Key Benefits
Earliest Signal
Receive shreds as they're produced, before block confirmation
Raw Data
Unprocessed shreds for custom parsing and strategy implementation
Low Latency
Direct UDP delivery minimizes network overhead
Reliable Source
Enterprise-grade shred infrastructure
What Are Shreds?
Solana breaks transactions into small packets called shreds for fast network propagation. Each shred is ~1228 bytes containing:
Slot number
Shred index
Shred type (data or coding/FEC)
Transaction data fragment
Validators reassemble shreds into complete blocks. By receiving shreds directly, you see transaction data before the block is finalized.
Use Cases
High-Frequency Trading (HFT) - React to transactions before block confirmation
Arbitrage - Detect price movements across DEXs at the earliest moment
MEV Strategies - Build and submit transactions with minimal delay
Market Making - Update quotes based on incoming order flow
Analytics - Real-time network monitoring and statistics
