Optimum

Optimum is a blockchain infrastructure project focused on supercharging network performance through reduced latency and increased bandwidth using less hardware. Built on MIT-sourced RLNC technology and the mumP2P protocol, they expand network bottlenecks rather than sacrificing data—achieving 6x faster block propagation in private testnet with 29 partners. The project is backed by a strong founding team including Professor Muriel Médard, $11M in funding from respected investors, an active Discord community, and a transparent roadmap with clear technical vision.
