While most discussions focus on execution, consensus, or data availability, Muriel explains why the propagation layer is actually the ceiling for everything above it — and what happens when it starts to struggle under real-world load. From redundant transmission and wasted bandwidth to uneven geographic performance, we explore why traditional gossip-style P2P networking may be limiting Web3’s growth.Optimum is introducing Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) and a universal bandwidth fabric designed to materially improve propagation speed and efficiency across chains. We dive into what’s live today, how validators can integrate, key performance metrics to track, and what Flexnodes enable in a permissionless mesh network. If propagation becomes reliably fast and predictable, what new classes of low-latency applications could finally become possible? Watch to understand the next scaling frontier in blockchain infrastructure.
