The SVM ecosystem pioneered by is no longer a single-chain story. It has become a shared execution standard across multiple networks.
In that world, compatibility isn’t differentiation. Every SVM chain inherits the same base. The real separation happens at the infrastructure layer.
positions itself around structural refinement.
Co-located validators compress latency variance. Environmental noise is reduced. Small implementation gaps don’t average out — they compound. Slightly faster clients capture more slots. Rewards diverge. Over time, incentives create natural selection at the client layer.
No governance vote.
No explicit exclusion.
Just economics revealing efficiency.
Validator revenue aligns with measurable performance. Optimization becomes rational, not ideological.
With co-located validators, compressed latency, and more deterministic ordering, transaction timing becomes tighter and more dependable. Execution outcomes rely less on environmental randomness and more on how precisely participants align their actions within shared execution windows.
In a multi-SVM era, chains won’t compete on feature lists.
They’ll compete on reliability under stress and predictability under load.
Fogo treats performance as an economic system not a marketing metric.
