About the Company

DoubleZero is a high-performance, permissionless global network purpose-built for distributed systems. The protocol increases bandwidth by filtering junk data and reduces latency by routing through optimized private fiber links. Malbec Labs develops the core technical components, while the DoubleZero Foundation drives adoption and decentralization.
