Most “on-chain markets” fail for one boring reason: global coordination turns every spike into a timing problem.
Fogo’s edge is structural: it shrinks consensus into a physically tight zone (data-center close), targets sub-100ms block times, and rotates zones by epoch so the “active quorum” isn’t the whole world every block.
Then it fixes the other leak: users don’t want to manage gas. Sessions + paymasters let apps cover fees, with session-style approvals and limits, and even supports fee flows in SPL tokens—meaning traders stay focused on execution, not wallet chores.
