I see how players to do this on many servers and i can do this on any public server (on a local server too). It's no network lag because i have stable internet connection ( 3-5 megabyte/sec) and i did it for a long time.
disable_anticheat = false
I did it on my home dedicated server because i think it must be faster to me then any other public server. How i can to fix slow return protected blocks in its place? Please see my short videos:

I don't think you can. Even on local servers, you always have ping. 43 miliseconds is enough.
But you could install some of the protection mods that do damage when you break a protected block.

But minecraft don't have this problem, why minetest have it?

Minetest is NOT Minecraft... Protection does work but is limited to whatever lag is in effect even on standalone systems...

Lag depends on MANY things, your internet connection speed, your computer, mods loaded in minetest, version of minetest...

But server can send to client coordinates of protected blocks in advance. Also server or client can return the player back when he passed through the protected wall. I heard about the mod in which to player trying to pass through the wall causes damage, but this mode does not suit me. Are you developer of minetest or minetestserver? I ask to developers.

This lag is a big problem in Minetest's core networking code, how the latency is low yet the response is high. Don't worry, it is being worked on.

Protection is added by mods, which means that it is not possible to have optimal client side prediction.
