The Solana Data Layer, Unfiltered

Raw packets. Direct delivery.

OrbitFlare Shredstream pipes raw Turbine packets to your infrastructure over UDP: no middleware, no aggregation, no waiting for block finalization.

UDPProtocol

Raw UDP Delivery

Shreds are forwarded directly to your IP:port via UDP, the fastest possible transport. No HTTP overhead, no WebSocket connections, just raw packets.

  • Direct UDP forwarding to your servers
  • No protocol overhead or serialization
  • Maximum packet throughput

Made for your workload

Shredstream Use Cases

From quantitative trading to protocol infrastructure, Shredstream powers every workflow where seeing Solana state changes first is a competitive requirement.

HFT Desks

Shave critical microseconds off your signal pipeline. Raw shreds let your strategies act on block data while others wait for RPC confirmation.

MEV Searchers

Observe pending state transitions at the Turbine layer and construct bundles with an information edge that processed feeds cannot match.

Memecoin Snipers

Spot new token deployments and liquidity events at the shred level, before they surface through conventional WebSocket or gRPC streams.

DEX Aggregators

Refresh routing tables and price quotes from raw transaction fragments, reducing staleness and improving fill quality for end users.

Liquidation Engines

Monitor collateral ratio changes as they propagate through Turbine and trigger liquidation calls ahead of the broader network.

Market Makers

Tighten bid-ask spreads by adjusting quotes based on shred-level order flow, well before aggregated block data is available.

A few useful answers

Before you build.

What are Solana shreds?

Shreds are the smallest unit of data in Solana's block propagation protocol (Turbine). Validators break blocks into shreds and distribute them across the network. By receiving raw shreds, you get access to transaction data before it's assembled into full blocks or processed by any RPC or gRPC endpoint.

How does OrbitFlare Shredstream work?

When you purchase a Shredstream slot, you specify a region and a destination IP:port. Our Jetstream servers in that region receive shreds from top-of-turbine validators and forward them directly to your server via UDP. Shreds start arriving within seconds of configuring your destination.

What regions are available?

You can order 8 regions today. Premium regions at $1,000/month: Frankfurt (Germany), Amsterdam (Netherlands), New York (US), and London (UK). Standard regions at $500/month: Tokyo (Japan), Dublin (Ireland), Šiauliai (Lithuania), and Salt Lake City (US). Singapore receives shreds too and is coming soon. All regions are fed by top-of-turbine validators.

What are the technical requirements?

You need a server with a public IP address and an open UDP port (no NAT/CGNAT). Your server should have sufficient bandwidth (about 50 to 100 Mbps for a full shred stream) and you will need to implement deshredding logic to reconstruct transactions from the raw shred fragments. We provide documentation and code examples to help you get started.

Do NFT Pass holders get a free slot?

Yes, for a limited time. Each active OrbitFlare NFT Pass license includes 1 free Shredstream slot, restricted to OrbitServers IPv4 prefixes. You can claim it directly from the Shredstream dashboard. The free slot is tied to your NFT Pass lifecycle.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept three payment methods: account balance (instant), credit/debit card via Stripe (supports recurring auto-renewal), and Solana cryptocurrency (on-chain verification). You can also apply discount codes at checkout.

How does billing and auto-renewal work?

Subscriptions auto-renew by default at the end of each billing period. You can choose monthly, quarterly (5% discount), semi-annual (10% discount), or annual (15% discount) billing. Auto-renewal can be toggled on/off, and you can submit cancellation requests at any time from the dashboard.
