Jito ShredStream shuts down Sept 5, 2026

Jito Shreds — keep your keypair, change one URL

Jito is discontinuing its ShredStream feed on September 5, 2026. AllenHark Jito Shreds is a drop-in replacement: the same shredstream-proxy binary, the same keypair, the same block-engine handshake — just point --block-engine-url at the AllenHark gateway. No re-architecture, no new socket code, no new deshredding logic.

Built for the Jito ShredStream shutdown

Jito posted its ShredStream deprecation notice in July 2026: the feed goes dark on September 5, 2026. If your infrastructure runs the standard shredstream-proxy binary — registering a keypair, pointing at a block-engine URL, receiving raw shreds over UDP or gRPC — you don't need to rebuild any of that. You need a block-engine endpoint that still exists after September 5.

AllenHark Jito Shreds is exactly that endpoint. We maintain the same proxy protocol Jito ran, whitelist by Solana pubkey the same way Jito did, and serve the gateway from Frankfurt at https://fra.jito.allenhark.network. Swap the URL, keep everything else.

Key Features

Drop-In Compatible

Same shredstream-proxy binary, same keypair, same handshake. Change one URL and you're done.

Pubkey Whitelisting

Register your keypair's Solana pubkey in the console to get whitelisted — no IP whitelist required.

24h Free Trial

Register your pubkey and validate the migration end-to-end before you commit to a paid plan.

Frankfurt Gateway

One gateway, https://fra.jito.allenhark.network, in the same city as the bulk of European Solana stake.

Kill-Switch-Free Build

AllenHark maintains its own build of the proxy binary with no upstream kill switch or forced shutdown risk.

Same Shred Format

Raw shreds, unchanged wire format. Your existing deshredding code keeps working as-is.

Migrate in three steps

1

Register your keypair's pubkey

Sign in to the AllenHark console and register the Solana pubkey of the keypair your shredstream-proxy already signs with. No new keypair to generate.

2

Point --block-engine-url at AllenHark

Set your proxy's --block-engine-url flag to https://fra.jito.allenhark.network. Everything downstream of the proxy — your socket, your parser — is untouched.

3

Trial it, then go live before Sept 5

Start a 24h free trial to confirm shreds are flowing, then subscribe to a paid plan and cut over before the Jito ShredStream shutdown.

FAQ

Q: Do I need a new keypair?

A: No. Register the pubkey of the keypair your existing shredstream-proxy already signs with. AllenHark whitelists by pubkey, the same mechanism Jito used.

Q: What exactly do I need to change?

A: One flag — set your proxy's --block-engine-url to https://fra.jito.allenhark.network. Your socket, deshredding code, and downstream consumers are untouched. --desired-regions is accepted but not used for routing — the gateway serves from Frankfurt.

Q: What is the "kill-switch-free build"?

A: AllenHark maintains its own build of the shredstream-proxy binary, so your feed isn't exposed to an upstream deprecation notice or forced shutdown the way Jito's ShredStream was.

Q: Can I test before I subscribe?

A: Yes — register your pubkey in the AllenHark console and start a free 24-hour trial before committing to a paid plan.

Q: How is this different from AllenHark ShredStream?

A: AllenHark ShredStream delivers decoded ledger entries over gRPC, or raw shreds over UDP, with no proxy required. Jito Shreds is for teams who want to keep running the shredstream-proxy binary and their existing keypair — it's the drop-in migration path, not a re-architecture.
