# mTransactions {% hint style="warning" %} **Note:** mTransactions is currently paused and unavailable. The documentation below is kept for reference purposes only. {% endhint %} The feature was released earlier as an **open beta** to explore new transaction capabilities within the Marinade ecosystem. At this time, the service has been **temporarily paused and is not active**. ## **What are mTransactions** mTransaction is an open-source RPC-like service that connects transaction senders and validators with stake on their nodes. It takes advantage of the [QUIC and QoS updates](https://medium.com/chorus-one/how-will-solana-improve-its-stability-6d4b0ba41866) that were added to Solana in 2022 and 2023. Participating users are able to send transactions to the mTransaction service, which will redirect them to one of the participating validators. This validator will use his staked node to forward the transaction to the leader through a QUIC connection. ### Github repository {% embed url="" %} mTransactions repository {% endembed %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
