Blockchain networking is often framed as a problem of faster propagation. @get_optimum But many limitations emerge not from speed, but from how data is structured and transmitted across the network. Traditional gossip protocols rely on full-message replication, which introduces redundancy and makes performance sensitive to packet loss, peer quality, and network congestion. A different architectural approach is to treat propagation as an information recovery process rather than message delivery. By encoding data into recomposable fragments, nodes can forward and reconstruct information continuously, without waiting for complete transmissions. Optimum explores this direction with RLNC-based gossip, improving latency, bandwidth efficiency, and resilience under real-world network conditions.
