Traditional finance runs on dedicated infrastructure. New finance is still catching up. @Austin_Federa of @doublezero tells @RemyBlaireNews the public internet lacks the reliability and performance needed for a financial system now handling a huge amount of the world's transactions. "It's really time to upgrade that infrastructure."


blink is a crypto-native exchange built around physical market infrastructure, with support from @doublezero and @thehub. Low-latency execution (<1ms). Equalized access for colocated participants. Verifiable settlement on Solana. The goal is simple: bring real exchange-grade market structure to crypto.

Crypto built global settlement before it built exchange-grade execution. blink is built to close that gap. Physical infrastructure. Equalized access. Tradfi-grade execution. Blockchain settlement. Today, blink comes out of stealth.



Transparency is at the heart of everything that gets built at DoubleZero. On DoubleZero’s newest dashboard, you can see multicast happening in real-time. Live shred delivery performance, global publisher coverage, and expected protocol revenue distribution, updated continuously. ↓


"I'm personally now super bearish block builders. They were mostly a relic of single leader design where they had god mode and acted as a middleman" Logan on why block builders are a dying breed and MCP shifts the focus from gatekeeping access to actually improving execution for users "Single leader design gave specific parties monopolistic power for a period of time and really distorted the markets" "Blockchains are ledgers. They are good at moving value around. As they get more performant they get better at trading. We just need to remove that monopolistic power"


Some hot takes on this week’s @ValidatedPod: a debate on Constellation, the latest MCP proposal from @Anza_xyz. First up is @HypoNyms of @Temporal_xyz on Constellation and its implications for @Solana’s market structure. @HypoNyms challenges Anza asking… Where's the analysis? @bw_solana’s take: “It’s really hard to know [...] what did you not include in a block?” From his perspective, selective censorship resistance is a key benefit of MCP. You might want to turn your notifications on for this one. Both full episodes drop s00n™️

Our engineering team publishes RFCs as the system takes shape. We don't market ideas, we commit them. If you want an edge on what @DoubleZero actually is, read the repos. ↓

Why DoubleZero Edge? A firehose of shreds at your fingertips.

@jump_ @Aptos 6/ Global AI storage doesn't work on best-effort networking. Shelby runs on @doublezero's dedicated global fiber network. Deterministic bandwidth, predictable routing, low latency. 30+ cities, 5 continents. Sub-second delivery as a guarantee, not a best case.


DoubleZero's ascent recently has been seriously impressive. No hype or fanfare. Just been quietly putting up numbers...Now 50% of Solana is running on top of it.
