LayerZero has announced Zero, a proposed blockchain platform described as a “decentralized multi-core world computer” that uses zero-knowledge proofs to separate execution from verification. The design centers on parallel Atomicity Zones—specialized execution environments that are meant to preserve shared security and state while scaling throughput, with LayerZero saying the system can keep validators lightweight and permissionless while execution work is specialized elsewhere.
