🚀 Sui Becomes First L1 Project To Run SCION

According to Foresight News, Sui has become the first Layer 1 (L1) project to run SCION, which is currently in the testnet phase. SCION aims to address issues related to internet routing, such as network latency, reliability, and security, by organizing Autonomous Systems (AS) into Isolation Domains (ISD). This allows for pre-specified network routes, known as 'path-aware networking,' enabling optimal traffic routing and backup routes for load balancing.

The current internet relies on the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) to route traffic, which dynamically determines the next hop without a known route. This can lead to inefficiencies and traffic congestion. SCION, however, allows clients to pre-determine network routes, providing a more efficient and reliable method of data transmission. This is particularly beneficial for Sui validators, RPC nodes, and surrounding infrastructure, optimizing latency and providing pre-planned backup paths to bypass DDoS attacks or congestion.

SCION's implementation in Sui enhances its Web3 stack, which includes zkLogin for authentication, objects for modeling application lifecycles, and Walrus for blob storage. With SCION, Sui is poised to offer one of the most robust Web3 infrastructures in the world.

🚀 Study Reveals Tokyo-Based Validators Offer Faster Transactions for Hyperliquid Traders

Glassnode research indicates that Hyperliquid's validator cluster is located in Amazon Web Services' Tokyo region, providing Tokyo traders with approximately 200 milliseconds faster order round-trip times compared to participants from Europe and the United States, according to PANews. This advantage results in better queue positions and transaction quality for those near the infrastructure.

The study shows that the median round-trip time for orders placed from AWS Tokyo nodes to confirmation is approximately 884 milliseconds, with only 5 milliseconds attributed to network transmission and the remainder to server processing time. In contrast, the round-trip time from Virginia's Ashburn node increases to about 1079 milliseconds. Unlike traditional financial markets, which use measures like cable length equalization and speed bumps to eliminate geographical advantages, decentralized markets lack similar safeguards. As institutional capital enters DeFi, a competitive landscape where speed determines transaction priority is emerging.
