DoubleZero

DoubleZero is an infrastructure network that routes data between nodes in blockchain and other distributed systems over dedicated, low-latency connections rather than the public internet. It targets validator operators and other participants who need faster and more reliable communication across a global network. The project positions itself as a solution to the latency and congestion problems that can slow down decentralized networks, particularly those in the Solana ecosystem.

The network is built from independently contributed physical links, and participants who provide those links are rewarded with 2Z tokens based on measured performance and reliability. Parties that want to use the network's connectivity pay for access in 2Z tokens. Staking mechanisms are described as planned for future phases, so the protocol's full token mechanics are not yet complete; the fundamental basis recorded here is DoubleZero Staked SOL, indicating that the current fee and total-value-locked figures reflect activity tied to Solana staking rather than a separate consensus layer.

The protocol generated 474,128.51 USD in fees over the trailing 30 days, annualizing to 5,768,563.54 USD from that same base period. Of the 30-day fees, 415,872.40 USD flowed to supply-side contributors, 7,312.99 USD went to token holders, and the protocol retained the remainder, implying a take rate of approximately 12.29 percent over the trailing 30 days. Protocol revenue — the portion the project itself keeps — was 58,256.11 USD over the trailing 30 days, annualizing to 708,782.67 USD. Both fees and revenue declined over the most recent 30-day window, falling 48.67 percent and 46.30 percent respectively.
