SLV Officially Supports DoubleZero — Complete DoubleZero Installation, Operation, and Migration for Solana Validators Just by Conversing with an AI Agent, Freed from Cumbersome Dual Client Management

ELSOUL LABO B.V. (Headquarters: Amsterdam, Netherlands, CEO: Fumitake Kawasaki) and Validators DAO are pleased to announce that SLV, the open-source Solana development tool they develop and operate, now officially supports the installation, operation, and migration of DoubleZero.

With this support, SLV users can now complete everything from the installation and daily operation of the DoubleZero client to zero-downtime migration solely through natural language conversations with an AI agent or via CLI operations. Users are freed from the cumbersome task of having to learn a separate CLI from the Solana validator client and manage a separate process.

What is DoubleZero — Accelerating Solana Communication via a Dedicated Fiber Network

DoubleZero is a dedicated fiber network specialized for blockchain validator communication. By propagating data between validators through independent, high-performance fiber links rather than routing through the public internet, it achieves reduced latency and suppressed jitter. Furthermore, dedicated hardware at the network's edge filters out duplicate transactions and spam traffic, which also reduces the processing load on the validators.

Connecting to DoubleZero directly boosts key performance indicators for Solana validators, such as vote success rate, vote latency, and skip rate. For validator operators contributing to the Solana network, adopting DoubleZero has become an important option for performance improvement.

Past Challenges — The Complexity of Dual Client Management

To adopt DoubleZero, it was previously necessary to install client software separate from Agave or Firedancer and operate an independent CLI. Validator operators had to learn the DoubleZero client's CLI in addition to the Solana validator client's CLI and manage both processes in parallel.
