ELSOUL LABO B.V. (Headquarters: Amsterdam, the Netherlands; CEO: Fumitake Kawasaki) and Validators DAO announce that ERPC has achieved full Yellowstone compatibility for Burst, the fastest shared Solana Geyser gRPC line currently available exclusively in Frankfurt.
Burst has consistently demonstrated superior first-arrival performance compared to existing Frankfurt gRPC endpoints, establishing itself as the top-tier shared Geyser gRPC stream. However, until now, its incomplete support for Yellowstone limited its availability to only select customers, despite high demand. With full Yellowstone compatibility now achieved, a broader range of customers can seamlessly adopt Burst without modifying their existing tools or clients.
This update presents a renewed opportunity for customers who previously had to choose Standard or Premium due to their need for full Yellowstone support. Burst demonstrates approximately 400–500ms faster arrival times compared to Standard/Premium endpoints in Frankfurt. Customers prioritizing first-arrival performance can now try Burst immediately, either through hourly billing (billed in one-hour increments) or via Crypto Pay (SOL / USDC / EURC).

Full Yellowstone Support Enables Seamless Use with Existing Tools
Most users leveraging Solana’s real-time streams do not implement their own clients but instead connect to Geyser gRPC through widely adopted tools, libraries, or bots. For these users, the internal implementation details—such as which methods are called—are irrelevant. What matters is that their existing tools work as-is, meaning the endpoint must be compatible with Yellowstone.
Yellowstone has become the de facto standard interface for Solana’s Geyser gRPC. Since many tools and clients are built with this standard in mind, 'full Yellowstone compatibility' means customers can switch endpoints without changing their current setup. With Burst now fully compatible with Yellowstone, it can be directly adopted as the endpoint for a wide range of tools built on this standard. Here, 'full Yellowstone compatibility' specifically means that major clients and SDKs designed for Yellowstone operate seamlessly upon endpoint replacement.
For Customers Previously Limited to Standard / Premium
Previously, customers requiring full Yellowstone compatibility had to use either the Standard or Premium shared Geyser gRPC plans. Although Burst offered the fastest first-arrival performance, its incomplete Yellowstone support made it less appealing to users prioritizing full compatibility.
This update changes that dynamic. Customers who stayed with Standard or Premium solely for full standard compliance can now migrate to Burst—retaining full compatibility while gaining significantly faster arrival times. The trade-off between compatibility and speed has been eliminated, enabling users to benefit from both simultaneously.
Approximately 400–500ms Faster Arrival — Comparison with Frankfurt Standard / Premium
The 400–500ms advantage demonstrated by Burst is measured against Standard / Premium endpoints under identical Frankfurt conditions—specifically, the same lineage previously benchmarked as the 'existing Frankfurt gRPC' at Burst’s initial release. This performance gap is not guaranteed across all regions or plans and may vary based on origin, route, time of day, and leader distribution. The difference has been verified using SLV’s gRPC comparison benchmarking tools. Use slv check geyserbench --kind grpc for first-arrival comparisons and slv check grpc for endpoint connectivity and latency checks.
This performance gap is not merely a marginal improvement in average latency. During Burst’s initial release, measurements showed a 99.80% First-Arrival Win Rate globally against the existing Frankfurt gRPC. The difference was particularly pronounced in the tail latency region, reaching hundreds of milliseconds. In use cases where first-arrival performance is critical—such as MEV or high-frequency trading—these tail cases directly impact decision-making and execution speed.
The measurement methodology is open-source. Customers can verify the actual arrival difference from their own origin using the same command: slv check geyserbench --kind grpc. Since arrival lag depends on origin, network path, time of day, and leader distribution, what can be reproduced is not a fixed number but the measurement method itself. ERPC emphasizes transparency by demonstrating delivery quality through verifiable, objective benchmarks rather than subjective claims or marketing slogans.

What is Burst? — The Fastest Tier of Shared Geyser gRPC
Burst is the top-tier shared Geyser gRPC stream. It offers a shared gRPC endpoint, 1 IP whitelist, no filter limits, up to 50 concurrent stream connections, connection to the nearest edge server, Powered by Raw Shreds, and Burst Mode support. Pricing is €398/month, with a 1-Day Free Trial available.
The positioning relative to existing plans is clear: Standard is suited for PoC and initial deployment, Premium for growth and production use, and Burst for use cases demanding maximum first-arrival advantage. With full Yellowstone support now achieved, Burst is
