Rocket RPC

Eden Rocket RPC offers a faster experience than Eden RPC which may be better for some use cases. By sending transactions using Rocket RPC your transactions are more likely to be included as soon as possible. This is because Rocket RPC is an aggregator that sends your transactions to multiple RPC providers/builders giving you the best possible chance at your transaction getting included in a block quickly.

The downside is that because your transactions are forwarded to third-parties outside of the Eden ecosystem, Eden cannot guarantee that your transactions won't be frontrun. That said, Eden will only forward your transactions to vetted third-parties that have no known history of frontrunning their users.
