What we measure

Hyperliquid: WebSocket round-trip to api.hyperliquid.xyz via AWS CloudFront, plus direct TCP latency to Hyperliquid validator nodes in Tokyo (AZ1, AZ2, AZ4) and real order-to-fill timing.

Solana: QUIC handshake latency to every voting Solana mainnet validator (~760 nodes), real-time leader-rotation tracking, stake-weighted best-co-location rankings, and Jito Block Engine paths across all 8 regional endpoints (Amsterdam, Frankfurt, London, Dublin, New York, Salt Lake City, Tokyo, Singapore).

SUI: TCP+TLS handshake latency to every active SUI mainnet validator with Mysticeti consensus. Reports time-to-quorum (latency to accumulate signatures from 2/3 of stake-weighted voting power) and time-to-90% supermajority — the metrics that actually bound transaction finality on a DAG-BFT chain.

Centralized exchanges (CEX): WebSocket and FIX latency to Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, OKX, Bybit, Bitmex, Deribit across spot, perpetuals, expiry futures, and options venues. Cross-exchange comparison mode picks the closest venue for a given product from any probe.

Prediction markets: REST round-trip to Polymarket (clob.polymarket.com, origin AWS eu-west-2 London) and Kalshi (api.elections.kalshi.com, origin AWS us-east-2 Ohio).

HFT oracle gateways: Pyth Lazer (Tokyo bare metal), Stork JP (AWS Tokyo), Switchboard Crossbar (GCP eu-west4), Chainlink Data Streams (Cloudflare US). Co-location guide for trading on oracle-dependent prices.

Why infrastructure location matters

For trading firms racing to be first into a price move, physical distance to exchange matching engines and blockchain validators dominates total latency. A server in the wrong city can lose by tens to hundreds of milliseconds — enough to lose every arbitrage and MEV opportunity to better-located competitors. This site publishes the actual measured numbers, continuously, so operators can make data-driven hosting decisions instead of guessing.

Best Co-location for SUI

SUI requires a quorum of validators by voting power (2f+1) for a transaction to commit. The numbers below show how fast each probe location can reach that threshold, weighted by stake.

What is time-to-quorum?

The latency at which 2/3+1 of total voting power has been reached when ordering validators from fastest to slowest.

Time-to-supermajority

Same idea but the 90% mark — useful for finality-sensitive flows that want headroom above the quorum threshold.

Measurement

TCP connect + TLS handshake to each validator's gRPC port (the real submission path), p50 over the last 90 minutes.
