LayerZero's release of its Zero World Computer architecture has sparked heated discussions, with many overseas KOLs calling it "the most important blockchain since Ethereum."

According to Mars Finance, on February 11th, LayerZero recently released its new L1 architecture, Zero, proposing to decouple execution and verification using ZK proofs to build a heterogeneous multi-core "world computer," and claiming it can achieve 100x scalability while maintaining decentralization. This release has sparked widespread discussion in the overseas crypto community. Crypto KOL foobar stated that Zero is "the most important blockchain since Ethereum," claiming that LayerZero is the first to achieve 100x scalability while maintaining and even enhancing decentralization, integrating various capabilities into a unified architecture. He also expressed optimism about its competitiveness in the Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization field. Grant called the solution "stunning" and said it was one of the "coolest" things he had read since entering the crypto industry, believing that if successfully implemented, LayerZero has the potential to enter the top ten protocols. Sequoia partner Shaun Maguire stated that he attended a LayerZero-related event, which was "historic," calling it a "giant leap forward" in blockchain technology. Ansem called on the market to concentrate more resources on supporting projects with clear Product-Market Fit (PMF), listing LayerZero as one of them. However, some voices of doubt have emerged. Auri believes that the official article's wording has a clear comparative bias, "Our technological brilliance vs. their outdated architecture," expressing a cautious attitude towards the promotional narrative. Crypto user doug funnie cited Claude's analysis, pointing out that Zero is still in the white paper stage, with the mainnet planned for launch in the fall of 2026, and technical metrics (such as 2 million TPS/Zone) have not yet been verified in a production environment. At the same time, its token ZRO currently has a low circulating supply, and there will still be significant unlocking pressure in the future. The analysis also points out that although partners including Citadel, DTCC, ICE, Google Cloud, and Tether have been announced, the related statements are mostly "exploring cooperation" and "evaluating integration," and the actual implementation remains to be seen. Currently, the market has divided opinions on Zero's technological breakthroughs and commercial prospects. Supporters believe its innovative architecture has the potential to reshape the performance boundaries of blockchain, while skeptics focus on risks such as the product's lack of launch, its token economic structure, and the progress of actual adoption.
