Carbon Jito Shredstream gRPC Datasource

Shreds are fragments of data used in the Solana blockchain to represent parts of transactions before they are assembled into a full block. When a validator processes transactions, it breaks them down into smaller units called shreds. These shreds are distributed across the network... https://docs.jito.wtf/lowlatencytxnfeed/

[!WARNING]
While Shredstream is great for real-time, low-latency data access, it must not be used for indexing: transactions are distributed as they are received by the leader, without status or metadata.

For that purpose, it's recommended to use block-subscribe or block-crawling datasources instead.
