pico🙄.sol Partners with DoubleZero to Enhance Solana's Performance

pico🙄.sol Partners with DoubleZero

In an exciting new collaboration, pico🙄.sol, a leading Solana validator company based in Suginami, Tokyo, has announced its partnership with DoubleZero, a next-generation decentralized network. This strategic alliance is set to leverage DoubleZero's high-bandwidth and low-latency physical infrastructure, known as the N1 Network, to enhance transaction processing speeds and improve overall network stability for the Solana blockchain.

Background on Solana's Growth

The Solana network has made a name for itself as one of the fastest blockchain platforms in the world, boasting impressive transaction processing capabilities. However, challenges still linger in validator operations, including securing adequate communication bandwidth, reducing latency, and addressing issues such as spam. To tackle these challenges head-on, pico🙄.sol has decided to partner with DoubleZero to optimize the physical layer of decentralized systems.

What is DoubleZero?

DoubleZero is a pioneering project designed specifically for decentralized systems, offering the N1 infrastructure. This innovative solution combines a dual-ring structure with dedicated fiber optics and FPGA-based edge processing. It achieves a unique combination of maximizing bandwidth while minimizing latency (IBRL: Increase Bandwidth, Reduce Latency) and eliminating spam. Operating on a permissionless model, DoubleZero enables global participants to provide physical network links, earning rewards based on their contributions. More details can be found in their comprehensive articles.

Furthermore, for Solana validators, DoubleZero offers a stake pool called dzSOL, which boasts millions of SOL, making it easy for validators to tap into this high-speed network environment.

Benefits of the Partnership

Through this collaboration with DoubleZero, pico🙄.sol anticipates several key advantages:

- Faster Transactions: Improved block generation and approval speeds.
- Enhanced Stability: Increased uptime by minimizing latency and packet loss.
- Strengthened Security: Better resistance against network-layer spam and DDoS attacks.
- Expanded MEV Revenue: Efficient block construction using the low-latency network.
- Delegation Acquisition: Ability to gain delegations from the dzSOL stake pool.

Insight from Leadership

Masayuki Hirozaki, CEO of pico🙄.sol, shared his thoughts on the collaboration: "Partnering with DoubleZero signifies a monumental evolution for our validator operations in terms of infrastructure. We are committed to enhancing the scalability and stability of the Solana network, ensuring optimal returns for all our stakeholders."

Future Outlook

Moving forward, pico🙄.sol intends to not only utilize DoubleZero’s infrastructure but also further optimize its validator processes and refine MEV strategies. Additionally, they are focused on expanding the Solana ecosystem in Japan while playing a crucial role in the decentralization of global infrastructure.

About pico🙄.sol

pico🙄.sol operates as a validator on the Solana network, based in Japan. Their mission is to provide the best staking experience on Solana, emphasizing transparency, stability, and profitability in validator management. As of August 2025, they have secured approximately 440,000 SOL (around 11.4 billion yen), making them the largest stake pool in Japan. They also offer a unique Liquid Staking Token (LST) called 🙄picoSOL, operated by the Singapore-based project Sanctum.
