DoubleZero rolled out Edge, a multicast platform delivering raw Solana shreds — the earliest observable signal of onchain activity — directly from leaders over its global fiber network spanning 29 cities with contributors including Jump, Galaxy, Jito, and Cumberland/DRW. Tiered pricing runs $30–$100 per epoch in USDC, competing directly with Jito ShredStream, Helius, and bloXroute on speed. The launch follows DoubleZero killing its 5% validator block reward fee (~$3.5M annualized) at epoch 939, a clear pivot from taxing validators to selling premium data access as the primary revenue model.
