After weeks of building, I'm releasing Deepwave.
I've been building Sui infra for a long time. Some of it shipped, like geyser. Some of it never saw daylight, like faster ways to read chain data. Every piece hit the same wall, the node underneath.
So I rebuilt it from scratch in Zig. New VM, new database, new networking.
Deepwave is the node behind all of @tide_data. Same answers as the official node, byte for byte, on 16 GB of RAM instead of the 128 GB Sui recommends.
Sui expects billions of agents. They'll need to read the chain faster than any person ever could, and run their own nodes without a data center behind them. That's who we're building for.
The vision for Tide is simple. Every wallet, app and agent on Sui sees the chain the moment it changes, with every transaction since genesis one query away. Next up are edge nodes around the world and a native protocol built for reading Sui.
It's open source today.

Introducing: Deepwave 🌊View quoted post on X
A Sui full node built entirely from scratch in Zig.
New Move VM. New database. New networking. No Rust, no RocksDB.
Sui recommends 128 GB of RAM and 4 TB of disk to run a node. Deepwave runs on 16 GB and 250 GB.
-4.9x faster catch-up
-5x faster Move VM
-28x less CPU per read
Drop-in replacement. Same API, same config. Your apps don't change.
