Conduit Ships G3 Sequencer
Conduit announced G3, a sequencer engineered for high‑throughput, low‑latency real‑time on‑chain finance aimed at closing gaps between blockchain settlement and financial systems' performance needs. The sequencer is pitched as delivering colo‑like performance for on‑chain execution, addressing a key bottleneck for real‑time DeFi and institutional trading. (x.com)
Conduit’s internal case study on EIP‑7966 rollout for the Ethereal DEX testnet measured a roughly 10x reduction in end‑to‑end transaction confirmation latency and a near 10x increase in trades‑per‑second after adopting the new RPC flow. (conduit.xyz) (conduit.xyz) Conduit’s prior production sequencer, G2, was advertised at up to 100 Mgas/s throughput and positioned as “10x” faster than off‑the‑shelf sequencers, establishing the performance baseline G3 aims to exceed. (conduit.xyz) (blog.conduit.xyz) Independent previews and ecosystem writeups have described a Conduit G3 preview that pairs the new sequencer capabilities with an EIP‑7966 implementation on Arbitrum, citing the Ethereal testnet gains as proof points for 10x latency and throughput improvements. (aixbt.tech) (aixbt.tech) EIP‑7966 (eth_sendRawTransactionSync), authored and tracked in the EIPs repo and EIP directories, introduces a synchronous RPC that returns a transaction receipt (or timeout) in the same call to eliminate the extra round‑trips traditional submission workflows require. (eips.ethereum.org) (eips.ethereum.org) The EIP’s discussion threads on Ethereum Magicians emphasize that eth_sendRawTransactionSync targets high‑frequency and low‑latency application workflows by reducing client‑side polling and nonce‑management RPC churn. (ethereum‑magicians.org) (ethereum-magicians.org) Conduit appears in EigenDA’s partner listings as an integrated sequencer option, and third‑party rollup projects using EigenCloud/EigenDA have demonstrated millisecond‑level continuous order‑flow performance in published integrations, signaling a pathway for Conduit G3 to serve institutional trading stacks. (eigenda.xyz) (eigenda.xyz) Conduit’s public docs and ecosystem pages list compatibility with OP Stack and Arbitrum Orbit and continue to market sequencer products specifically to DEX and appchain deployments, indicating G3 will be offered through the same managed rollup service model used for G2. (conduit.xyz) (conduit.xyz) EIP‑7966 remains tracked as a draft standard with an active proposal history (initial creation 11 June 2025 and subsequent updates posted in the proposal thread), meaning client and node implementers’ adoption timelines will determine when G3 + eth_sendRawTransactionSync configurations become broadly available in production.
