DoubleZero Introduces High-Speed Data Solution for Solana, Bringing Wall Street Trading Technology to Crypto
The DoubleZero Foundation has launched a new platform, DoubleZero Edge, designed to accelerate the delivery of crypto market data to trading firms. This move signals a growing demand for traditional financial systems in digital asset markets. DoubleZero Edge offers a real-time feed of raw data from the Solana blockchain, allowing traders to react more quickly to market fluctuations. By collaborating with validators, DoubleZero Edge distributes data more efficiently, addressing the limitations of relying on the public internet for data transmission. The new network reduces data delivery times by tens of milliseconds, providing a competitive edge for high-frequency trading firms. The platform utilizes a private fiber network and multicast method to distribute data to multiple participants simultaneously. Additionally, DoubleZero Edge introduces a new economic model, where validators can earn extra revenue by supplying data, and traders can subscribe to feeds using USDC. The launch comes as crypto trading firms seek more reliable infrastructure, and DoubleZero's system aims to level the playing field by minimizing uncertainty in market data delivery. According to Andrew McConnell, co-founder of DoubleZero, 'deterministic infrastructure removes a risk that market makers have to price in, leading to tighter spreads and better execution.'
