In decentralized finance (DeFi), latency often plays a key role in determining the experience. Whether it's spot trading, derivatives markets, or clearing mechanisms, if the confirmation time is too long, it can lead to increased slippage, clearing failures, and other issues.
Traditional public chains have struggled to meet these high-frequency scenarios due to limitations in TPS and latency.
Solayer's InfiniSVM reduces confirmation latency to sub-millisecond levels, which is a highly disruptive metric. For on-chain trading, this means that matching and settlement can be almost completed in real-time.
Traders no longer need to worry about order lag, nor will they miss critical price points due to block delays.
More importantly, low latency brings new possibilities. For example, on-chain derivatives markets, which previously relied on centralized matching engines to maintain speed, can now operate entirely on-chain thanks to Solayer's performance.
Additionally, oracle updates and automated strategies can respond to market changes more promptly, avoiding risks associated with delays.
This is why Solayer's performance breakthrough is not just data boasting, but truly linked to application scenarios.
For DeFi users, sub-millisecond confirmation represents a leap from "unimaginable" to "achievable."
It brings on-chain finance closer to the standards of traditional markets while maintaining transparency and decentralization.
