Fuel as an underrated player in the CLOB wars
Thread102 words
Argues Fuel is built for onchain CLOBs through FuelVM, parallel execution, a hybrid UTXO/account model and EigenDA, while building a CLOB in house starting with spot, then perps and options.
Key claims
About 150k TPS at 1-10ms latency
EigenDA with 50 MB/s data throughput
In-house CLOB roadmap: spot, then perps, then options
A hugely underrated player in the CLOB wars is @fuel_network.
Why?
- Delivers ~150k TPS at 1-10ms latency
- Parallel execution & optimized sequencing
- Hybrid UTXO/account-based state model
- Using EigenDA with 50 MB/s data throughput
- Building CLOB in-house (spot > perps > options)
There are gud reasons @IAmNickDodson and team created @SwayLang + built the FuelVM.
Onchain CLOBs are hard to build.
Impossible even on most chains.
Fuel is designed for exactly this kind of use case.
DYOR anon.
Friendly reminder on what happened to @bulletxyz once ppl realized they are building a highly scalable CLOB.
NFA, just saying.
