ABOUT BLOXROUTE
bloXroute is the "Flash Boys" for DeFi. It created the first and only high-performance blockchain distribution network (BDN) with the best solution for Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, and Solana. The bloXroute BDN and DeFi trading tools allow its users to win at crypto trading. The BDN utilizes a global network of servers optimized for network performance. Nodes access this network through open-source gateways and users can access it through the bloXroute public-API.
The BDN network propagates blockchain transactions and blocks closer to the speed of light. It provides traders with the speed and reliability required for crypto transactions. bloXroute is the leader in mempool services, block streaming and anything Defi performance.
The BDN also allows blockchains to scale by speeding the time it takes to communicate the current state. The BDN's fast communication reduces the blocks’ size and frequency limits. This is true for all consensus mechanisms, including Proof of Stake, Proof of Work, and DAGs.
We are hiring engineers and business people for various positions. Check out our careers page: https://bloxroute.com/careers/
We offer competitive compensation and equity, a full remote environment and a bunch of smart team members to work with.

BEAM is based on Mimblewimble – an elegant protocol released by an anonymous developer in 2016.
Named after a tongue-tying spell from the Harry Potter saga, Mimblewimble uses Pedersen Commitment scheme for full anonymity and zero-knowledge range proofs to ensure validity of transaction amounts.
To enhance privacy and reduce the blockchain size, Mimblewimble merges all intermediate outputs within a single block and across multiple blocks, thus only storing the current UTXO state and making the blockchain size an order of magnitude smaller than in other leading currencies.
BEAM team implemented Mimblewimble from scratch using C++. BEAM blocks are mined using memory-hard Equihash Proof-of-Work algorithm. The block time is 1 minute on taver- age.
