A minimum tip of 0.0001 SOL (100,000 lamports) is required for this endpoint.

Lightspeed Transactions

post
/

Submits a signed transaction with priority processing through the Lightspeed validator network. This endpoint provides accelerated transaction landing times through a tip-based priority system.

Requirements:

  • Transaction must include a system transfer instruction sending at least 0.0001 SOL (100,000 lamports) to one of the Lightspeed tip addresses

  • Must set skipPreflight: true in the configuration options

  • Transaction must be fully signed and serialized

  • User must provide an API key from any paid SVS RPC plan (staked or un-staked)

Lightspeed Tip Addresses:

  • 53PhM3UTdMQWu5t81wcd35AHGc5xpmHoRjem7GQPvXjA

  • 9tYF5yPDC1NP8s6diiB3kAX6ZZnva9DM3iDwJkBRarBB

Performance: Larger tips translate to faster transaction processing times. The minimum tip of 0.0001 SOL provides baseline priority, while tips higher than 0.001 SOL increase processing speed significantly.

Keep-Alive: Use the getHealth RPC call to maintain your connection to the Lightspeed endpoint.
