LayerZero plans to launch its Zero mainnet and ATLAS trading infrastructure on November 30, 2026, following an October 20 announcement. ATLAS will be the first application on Zero and will initially support more than a dozen third-party trading venues through its Open ATLAS configuration. The system is designed as a headless exchange, meaning venues provide the user interface while ATLAS handles order matching, clearing, settlement and risk management. LayerZero says the initial trading system will be provisioned for 200,000 transactions per second, with company-reported testing showing median latency below one millisecond. Zero separates transaction execution from verification using zero-knowledge proofs and divides activity into specialized zones, with a roadmap of approximately 2 million transactions per second per zone. Under the announced Open ATLAS fee model, venues will receive rebates of 20% to 65%, after which 25% of the remaining fees will go to market creators and 75% will fund ZRO purchases and burns. The launch follows LayerZero's February announcement of Zero and its August introduction of ATLAS, extending the company's focus from cross-chain interoperability into blockchain and trading infrastructure.
