Where does Fogo “ultra-low latency” goal come from?
I’ve heard too many promises about speed, to the point that whenever someone says ultra low latency I feel tired, yet I keep coming back to the same question, where does FOGO ultra low latency goal really come from.
I think it comes from a blunt truth, users don’t experience blockchain through announcements, they experience it through the waiting time between a tap and a response. When that gap stretches, trust gets shaved away, ironically, we set out to build systems people can trust more, yet we keep shipping experiences that feel like a room full of locked doors. FOGO starts with a roughly 40ms block rhythm, not to flex a number, but to pull interaction back toward something that feels natural, and it brings consensus closer inside zones to cut network delay, reducing the physical distance that quietly eats time.
What catches my attention, perhaps, is how they separate the signal into layers, confirmed when more than two thirds of stake has voted, finalized when the lockout stacks deep enough, something like thirty one confirmed blocks, fast enough to keep you moving, deep enough to let you breathe.
I’m still skeptical, because what looks clean on paper often gets messy in the real world, but if FOGO can hold that rhythm under real pressure, I’ll take it as a rare step toward putting blockchain back in its proper role, a quiet foundation, responsive in time, and reliable enough that users forget they’re standing on a chain.
