FAQ: How Does Flowra Use Open Orderflow?
@Flowra_sol combines standardized orderflow access with competitive bundle auctions and validator-controlled block policy, allowing searchers to compete on execution while validators retain control over the rules governing their blocks.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT 💭
If your edge disappears the moment everyone gets the same feed, was the edge really execution? 👀
I'm not sure if everyone feels this way, but there's something I keep coming back to, which is: a lot of MEV discussions are really access discussions in disguise.
gm gm, here's a little something something. More to come!
Where Will The Next Wave of Solana Adoption Come From? [Ft. Flowra] #CHAINREACTION xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1qGoNYqNr…
Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it to @token2049 this year in Singapore, but it's due to a very exciting reason I can't wait to share with everyone soon!
With the man, the myth, the @SolanaFndn legend Mr @ramzyyalii 😎
Thank you @kbwofficial for such a great event as always.
The quality keeps getting better and better 🤩

Simply seeing the tx is not the same as being able to land against it.
This is usually the first thing every new searcher learns the annoying hard way. The stream gives visibility but the leader schedule tells you whether it's actually useful ✅
crypto infra is basically:
“why didn’t this land”
followed by 45 minutes of increasingly specific questions

The collaboration we knew was..... imminent 😉
p.s this is definitely 100% not AI. @toly & @Harry_Flowra can confirm
alpenglow on public testnet today
~150ms finality is kind of ridiculous when you think about where solana started
everyone immediately thinks “apps get faster”
my brain unfortunately goes straight to:
what does this do to searchers, block building and the value of 50ms 😂
Alpenglow hitting public testnet is a big one.
@solana is targeting ~150ms finality, down from ~12.8 seconds today.
People will talk about swaps and payments feeling instant; which is true.
But the more interesting part for us is what happens underneath.
Faster consensus means faster markets.
Searchers have less time to react
Validators make decisions in tighter windows 🐂
Blockspace becomes even more time-sensitive 💍
Solana is getting faster 🏎️
The market structure around it needs to keep up too 🔔
A thought when we're talking about “institutional adoption”
This term is overused here
and if i'm being honest, the majority of institutions don’t care that something is onchain
they care whether they can actually operate it, audit it and explain it internally
TradFI taught me to look at who gets paid, who gets the access, and who is taking the risk
Here in crypto is basically the same game, just with more of the plumbing exposed 😉
