Jito's BAM Preconfirmations Soar on Solana with 34% Stake Coverage in Just Days

Jito's BAM preconfirmations have seen rapid adoption on the Solana network since its launch on September 9. The feature allows validators to sell early access to committed transaction data, giving traders a latency advantage of 5-10 milliseconds at the p50 mark.

This new revenue stream has already covered over 34% of Solana's total network stake, with adoption facilitated by infrastructure providers Helius and Triton. The revenue generated is split three ways: 30% to distribution partners, 35% to BAM validators, and 35% to the Jito DAO treasury.

The technical structure behind BAM preconfirmations utilizes Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) to enforce privacy mandates during transaction sequencing. This helps reduce the opportunity for malicious MEV extraction while allowing validators to monetize their position in the network.
