New Rome
Today is a monumental day for @doublezero. We're launching our second Layer 1 blockchain, home to one of the most attractive perps markets for traders. Beginning today, traders and their AI agents can now obtain full book, Level 4 data, delivered over DoubleZero's high performance global fiber network via multicast. Our launch today includes full perps market coverage, including every HIP-3 market. This is a game changer for traders, and I can't wait for you to get your hands on it.
DoubleZero Edge now carries data from @HyperliquidX. Streams are entirely uncapped, every market, every order, the full L4 book including HIP-3. Introducing the first-class path to Hyperliquid’s order book, and the fastest commercially available feed on the market.

DoubleZero is complicated. solana:J6pQQ3FAcJQeWPPGppWRb4nM8jU3wLyYbRrLh7feMfvd is simple 100% of fees buy 2Z. 10% burned. 45% to fiber. 45% to the people who originate the data. No inflation. Pay in card, ACH, stablecoin, or 2Z.

Been very impressed by @Backpack - top tier team on product and execution that doesn’t play the games most exchanges play.
right now there’s honestly nothing better than Backpack’s all in one app, everything you need is in one place/click – buy and sell real stocks (real stocks/dividends included) – buy and sell crypto – use your crypto, stocks and stables as collateral – card that earns you APY – the best wallet out there – no VCs, and token unlocks tied to the team actually delivering If you haven’t tried it yet, you should definitely give @Backpack a chance fock it 🎒

Stop consuming quant dev bandwidth on venue integration. Let your team focus on alpha. Just use Edge.

The smart move now is to double down on Delta status, as all the wifi power users have self-selected to United and are gonna overwhelm the routers and access points onboard, while shedding load from Delta's (inferior but still sufficient) satellite links.

It already matters. ⚡ 0.65ms to the nearest @doublezero device in Singapore 📡 Publishing shreds to Edge since day one 🖥️ All 6 of our nodes on DZ
This new generation of high-performance protocols serving truly high-performance applications requires a complete rethink of the infrastructure level. Celestia’s write benchmark is very impressive and shows just how much dedicated high-performance connectivity is going to matter! DoubleZero

📊 “…we’re really trying to level the playing field” @Austin_Federa tells how AI and faster data could narrow Wall Street’s edge. Before you assume the edge is still untouchable, watch the full interview. 🔽
🤖 What if everyone had an HFT firm in their pocket? @doublezero co-founder @Austin_Federa tells @_dsencil at @KBWOfficial how AI could give more traders faster market access and price improvement. This idea is worth hearing out. ⏬

A prospective customer with extreme throughput requirements asked how much capacity Fibre can really deliver. So we ran an end-to-end benchmark across 120 validators. It sustained 3.07 Tb/s of throughput, enough data for nearly 2 billion transactions per second. Every transaction Visa processed in 2025 would fit in just over two minutes. Full breakdown: blog.celestia.org/celestia-f…

The only appropriate mentality for running a company is irrational optimism and ruthless self-accountability. It sounds contradictory, but it is the only mental state I think you can productively exist in. "Everything will work out, and everything is my fault"

✅ Solana ✅ Kalshi ✅ Hyperliquid ✅ Phoenix CFTC and SEC have clarity politicians couldn’t … the great migration to blockchain rails is upon us. TradFi doesn’t run on the public internet … so why should you expect their packets on blockchain rails (or your own) to use anything but double zero. This will accrue value to solana:J6pQQ3FAcJQeWPPGppWRb4nM8jU3wLyYbRrLh7feMfvd over a patient enough time horizon
I actually think we have an awesome token structure for the long term - no passive emissions (Proof of Utility rewards valuable used connectivity only) - capped supply - no inflation - 10% of all fees burned (could be raised) If you believe in the DoubleZero thesis, I think this is a pretty good design.

Perps are less than 1% of global derivatives volume. They’re a trading venue that will continue to grow and dominate new financial markets. As more institutions and trading firms begin to build perps trading strategies, they will need the same infrastructure they’re used to seeing in traditional markets. And that’s exactly what we build at DoubleZero.

And we are doing it! More soon.
Here’s the master plan for @doublezero - Connect all the places people want to trade, to all the traders (and their agents) who want to trade there, faster then anyone else and faster than the internet. - Support the fastest blockchains and decentralized systems with dedicated high preference infrastructure to compete with traditional finance - Make it all seem easy.
