Jito ShredStream alternative FAQ

LocalShred™ Lite is a free Solana shred stream from DedicatedNodes. The free Jito ShredStream closed on 5 September 2026; Jito ShredStream itself still runs, but access to it now sits behind DoubleZero. LocalShred™ Lite is open to anyone and needs no DedicatedNodes server. It is received by localshred-lite-proxy, an open source client forked from jito-labs/shredstream-proxy.

No. LocalShred™ Lite is free and open to anyone, on any host. LocalShred™ is a different stream: it is included with a DedicatedNodes bare metal server in Amsterdam and Rotterdam.

No. LocalShred™ Lite is tuned to the speed Jito ShredStream delivered, so what your node receives does not change. The 3ms advantage measured in Amsterdam belongs to LocalShred™ on DedicatedNodes bare metal, and it is not part of LocalShred™ Lite.

One command line changes. Replace the Jito binary and its block engine flag with localshred-lite-proxy and --localshred-url. The rest of your command stays exactly as it is. The Jito client itself cannot be pointed at LocalShred™ Lite: it takes a block engine URL and has no flag for a stream address or an authentication key, which is why this is a separate binary. Put your key in the API_KEY environment variable rather than on the command line, because an argument is visible to every other user on the machine.

Three. Each user is allowed exactly 3 IP addresses. Your addresses are registered from the machines that connect. Destinations are IPv4 only. Each entry must be a single address. CIDR ranges are not allowed.

The first 100 signups go out in the first batch. Further batches follow as capacity allows. DedicatedNodes emails you when your account is activated.

The stream is served from Amsterdam.

LocalShred™ is included with every DedicatedNodes bare metal server in Amsterdam and Rotterdam. It needs no proxy client on your side, and in Amsterdam it runs approximately 3ms ahead of what Jito ShredStream delivered. LocalShred™ Lite does not include that advantage.
