With the increasing performance of the Layer 2 network and decentralized artificial intelligence platform, data availability becomes more critical.Data availability (DA) means that the block producer publishes all the transaction data of the block into the network so that the verifications can make the download.Following it, there are also two key points of data usability: safety and cost.The first is to ensure that the verification mechanism is safely carried out, and the other is to reduce the cost of publishing data.
In the course of the gradual separation of data availability and the main network, another greater long -term trend can also be found, which is the modularization of the blockchain.The modular blockchain has decomposed the various tasks or functions of the blockchain into different layers or modules. This separation allows improvement of performance, scalability and customization.At present, competitors in the field of modular blockchain are Altlayer, Avail, Celestia, Eigenlayer, Fuel, Dymension and so on.
Now, what wonderful effects will it produce if artificial intelligence and modular blockchain are fused?0g, also known as Zero Gravity, is the first modular AI blockchain born in this context.On March 26, 0G was announced in the Pre-SEED wheel. It merged 35 million US dollars. Investors include Hack VC, Alliance, Animoca Brands, Delphi Digital, Stanford Builders Fund, Symbolic Capital, OKX Ventures Institution.
Michael Heinrich, CEO and co -founder of 0G, recently introduced project concepts, current development progress and future roadmaps, and more details behind the project establishment.
0G innovation: high performance, focusing AI, programming
From the official introduction, 0G is the first data availability system with a built -in general storage layer with super scalability and decentralized characteristics.The scalability of 0G depends on the idea of dividing the data availability workflow into the data publishing lane and the data storage lane.A large amount of data transmission occurs on the data storage channel supported by the storage layer. It realizes horizontal scalability through a good design partition, and the data publishing channel can ensure the data availability attribute through the consensus available sample of data availability.To avoid the bottleneck of trading broadcast.
More popular, Michael said that 0G has three features: “We can help high -performance DAPPS on the Internet through the fastest data availability layer in the market. There are three aspects of key innovation: 1) high performance, 2) focusing on focusAI, 3) The programmability of data availability platform.
From a performance point of view, 0G found the method of expanding nodes in the horizontal expansion of the consensus layer, and also found how to expand the consensus layer itself.”This means that we can provide unlimited data availability throughput. At each consensus layer, we can provide about 50GB of data availability capacity, which is 50,000 times faster than Danksharding or other methods, and the cost is about 100 times cheaper.You can really achieve the cost and performance of imitating Web2. “
According to him, 0G modular AI blockchain will support a series of DAPPS, including AI, games, high -frequency trading DEFI, DEPIN applications, etc., which is a major breakthrough for this field.
“We can also cover more technical innovations in it. Then, focusing AI is part of the infrastructure, including distributed storage networks. People can use it to store the AI model and use DA attributes to provide distributed reasoning tracking tracking tracking(Inference Traces) and OPML cases.
In addition to the above two characteristics, 0G is also programmable.Blockchain and developers can save their entire state through smart contracts, and then load the state later.”When they do this, they can completely customize the time length of the stored, the location of the storage, the type of data used, the security attributes, and how much data backup. Therefore, it can be programmed completely according to your needs. These three are these three.This key innovation enables us to distinguish the availability layer in the encryption field.
Investment institutions are popular, 20 times over subscription
As a startup, the initial financing of 0G is just a basic goal, $ 5 million for the development of core technologies.However, when 0G chose Hack VC as the leader, the door was open immediately, and 0G received 20 times over subscription.Attracted more than $ 100 million investment interest, and 0G finally cooperated with investors they thought to be most helpful.
“I think the reasons behind this include: the ability of the team; this field and the potential it brings; the quality of investors entering the initial stage, they opened the door and let other investors want to participate. Hack VC is what we receive for us to acceptThe first letter of intent to get in, once they invest, many others follow up quickly. “
Michael said that the investment funds received by 0G will be mainly used for marketing and engineering development.These are two main uses.The funds are roughly divided into these two aspects.
Speaking of the reasons for the initial establishment of the project, Michael said that he first met Thomas Yao from Stanford University. The two were classmates and became very good friends over time.”So I have known YAO for 10 years now. He knows that I want to build something in the fields of web 3 and AI. So he called me at the end of 2022 and said: Hey, I invested in a family name a few years ago.For the company of Conflux, Ming Wu and Fan Long are very good. They want to start some projects worldwide. I think the four of us can form a very powerful team.He met frequently with the co -founder for about 6 months. “Michael said.
The main network is expected to be released by Q3
0G was founded last year, about 9 months ago.Now, instead of facing some development challenges, the 0G technical team is currently doing focusing on optimization. For them, the challenges they face are more about how to truly optimize each part of the system.For example, the team studies different scheme coding schemes, and then found a implementation plan we modified, making the speed three times faster than any other solution we have seen.
“This does not involve challenges, and more is optimizing infrastructure. We are building it in a very systematic way. We first start from the decentralized storage network, and then we add the component of the component of the consensus layer., Add KZG Commits, and then add data availability sampling as part of the consensus network. “
Each of these components requires a lot of optimization.This is where 0G is currently in development.Another time to spend a lot of time is to optimize consensus to make it efficient.
Therefore, at first, 0G will only use ready -made consensus, but the second stage of the main network will use the modified Conflux consensus mechanism.Therefore, this will take a lot of time.
There are about 30 people’s 0g now, and more than half are engineers.Michael said that the 0G team lineup is very powerful, “We have many Olympic gold medals and information contest medals. This is the best engineering team I have worked. Therefore, I am really proud of with our team.”
At present, 0G has not disclosed the valuation and token issuance time.The 0G main network will be released in the third quarter of this year.”We are trying to let it be done in the third quarter as soon as possible. We are working very hard to make this possible.”
Michael said this will be the first stage of the main network.”We will have multiple stages, and we will announce the functions that will be included at each stage in the future.”
As far as partnership is concerned, 0G is currently cooperating with the outstanding Layer2 in some encrypted fields, such as Polygon.There will also be some cooperation with artificial intelligence projects, game projects and some DEFI projects.In addition, Michael revealed that 0G will also cooperate with some Rollups-As-A-Service providers.
