LayerZero Labs CEO Bryan Pellegrino introduces Zero, a new blockchain designed to solve scaling issues and promote decentralized, permissionless systems. Pellegrino details Zero's architecture, highlighting breakthroughs in storage (QMDB), execution (FAFO), network compression (SVID), and compute (ZK proofs) that enable up to two million transactions per second at a fraction of a penny. He contrasts Zero's approach with centralized performance blockchains like Solana and Layer 2 scaling solutions, arguing that Zero uniquely balances decentralization with high throughput. Pellegrino also discusses partnerships with TradFi institutions like DTCC, ICE, and Citadel Securities, as well as Tether, to drive real-world adoption in global markets and payments. Zero aims to connect to LayerZero's existing network of 165 blockchains and will utilize the existing Xero token.
