Build on top of Jito infrastructure

Jito is the backbone of Solana's MEV and block-building ecosystem. From Bundles and ShredStream to JitoSOL and the Block Assembly Marketplace (BAM), Jito provides the infrastructure that powers fast, efficient, and fair transaction execution on Solana.

Jito's stack is built for builders. The Block Engine runs off-chain auctions for atomic transaction bundles. ShredStream delivers ultra-low-latency block data to any RPC or validator on the network. And BAM brings verifiability, privacy, and programmability directly into Solana's transaction pipeline, opening the door to entirely new classes of on-chain applications.

For this track, we're looking for builders who go beyond surface-level integrations. We want products, protocols, and tools that genuinely leverage Jito's infrastructure in meaningful ways — whether that's improving execution quality, unlocking new DeFi primitives, or pushing Solana's performance envelope further.
