TEC/DAD (DeFi Accelerator Device) is a desktop-class FPGA appliance that pulls Solana shreds straight off DoubleZero Edge, filters them in silicon, and hands your strategy a clean transaction stream. Your wallet. Your keys. Your edge.

// How it works

Hardware classifies.
Software decides.

Public RPC was never built for traders. TEC/DAD is. The hot path is an FPGA; the smart path is Rust; the network path is DoubleZero. Sub-5 ms from shred-on-the-wire to your strategy is the bar.

Firehose in. Signal out.

clean transaction stream to your bots

Filter in silicon

An on-board FPGA does the cheap, deterministic work — parsing Solana shreds, dropping duplicates, matching the accounts and programs you actually care about. Your CPU only ever sees signal.

DoubleZero ready

Plug into Solana's premium edge feed out of the box. The shipping image speaks DoubleZero Edge natively — no host forwarder, no glue scripts. Bring a shred seat and a power cable.

Your strategy, your keys

Decoding, strategy, signing, and Jito submission all run on the box you own. There is no shared signing service, no vendor in your hot path, no telemetry leaving your rack.

A live transaction firehose

Subscribe over gRPC, WebSocket, or SSE and your bots get filtered transactions the instant they're decoded — no polling, no draining queues, no waiting your turn behind another tenant.

// What ships in the box

One device. No assembly required.

Plug it in, provision your DoubleZero seat, and enjoy the lowest-latency DeFi data on Solana.

Common questions

What is TEC/DAD, in one sentence?+

A desktop FPGA appliance that gives you a private, low-latency view of Solana — purpose-built for DeFi searchers, market makers, and keeper bots.

How is this different from running an RPC?+

Public RPC is a polling tax. TEC/DAD pulls shreds directly from the Solana edge, classifies them in hardware, and pushes filtered transactions into your strategy as a live stream. No polling, no shared tenancy, no rate limits.

Do I need DoubleZero?+

Yes — DoubleZero Edge is required for live operation, and it's billed directly by DoubleZero, not by us.

The good news: TEC/DAD does the heavy lifting. The box ships pre-configured with a DoubleZero wallet and the right network identity for your unit, so getting a shred seat is as simple as funding that wallet and clicking the pay-for-seats button in the local dashboard.

Prefer to handle billing yourself? You can purchase seats out-of-band on any wallet you control, as long as the seat is assigned to the IP and public key that your TEC/DAD is using — both are visible in the dashboard.

What's the latency target?+

Under 5 milliseconds from shred-on-the-wire to your bot, measured end-to-end on the box itself. Real number, not marketing.

Where does signing happen?+

On your device, with your keypair. Strategy logic, transaction construction, signing, and Jito submission all live on the box you own. We don't see your trades, your keys, or your tip-account policy.

What ships on the unit?+

Hardware ships with live shred ingest, hardware filtering, gRPC, WebSocket, and SSE streaming APIs, full transaction decoding, and Direct TPU sender.

Is my pre-order refundable?+

Yes, until your unit enters final assembly. Email orders@trustless.engineering with your transaction signature and we'll refund to the same wallet.

Where do you ship?+

We currently ship to all countries and territories in checkout except American Samoa, Bhutan, Central African Republic, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and Syria. Buyer covers customs and duties.
