LayerZero reports 45x performance gain in month-long Zero pilot with 21X's onchain order book

21X AG ran its fully onchain central limit order book, with no offchain matching, directly on a private instance of LayerZero's Zero during a month-long pilot focused on US equity tokens. The results were benchmarked against other common public and private EVM networks, showing a 45x performance improvement over 21X's existing solution. LayerZero says that as capital markets move onchain, institutions need infrastructure capable of carrying real order flow at full scale, positioning Zero as built for that purpose. The announcement was shared in an ecosystem update dated 11.3.26.
