AI needs fast infrastructure | 0G Podcast Ep. 32
On this episode of the 0G Podcast, host Jax Dwyer sits down with Sattvik Kansal, cofounder and head of engineering at Rome Protocol, to unpack one of the most important infrastructure plays shaping the multi-chain future of Solana.
Rome is building a next-gen interoperability layer that enables atomic cross-chain transactions, SVM-based rollups, and seamless composability between ecosystems. Designed for high throughput, low latency, and maximal developer flexibility, Rome turns Solana into a scalable coordination layer for any chain that wants to tap into its performance and decentralization.
In this episode, Sattvik breaks down how Rome unlocks true interoperability without relying on traditional bridging models. He explains how their SDK lets developers build atomic execution across Solana, Ethereum, and L2s, enabling new primitives like liquidity syncing, multi-chain RWA transfers, and zero-friction composability for DeFi and AI use cases.
We also dive into the rise of Solana L2s, how Rome leverages Solana’s single-state architecture, and why more protocols are starting to build on top of SVMs. From solving liquidity fragmentation to eliminating centralization risk in rollup sequencing, Rome Protocol is redefining how chains compose and scale.
Whether you're building the next DePIN network, experimenting with modular AI agents, or simply trying to make sense of the Solana L2 movement, this is a deep technical and strategic conversation you don’t want to miss.
Perfect for developers, founders, and investors looking to understand what’s next in Solana, crypto infrastructure, and the future of onchain UX.

About 0G:
0G (ZeroGravity) is the first decentralized AI operating system, designed to bring AI onchain at an unprecedented scale. By enabling nearly infinite scalability for decentralized AI, 0G ensures trustless, verifiable, and high-performance data storage solutions for AI models. Their architecture supports 50 Gbps data throughput, positioning 0G as a leader in the decentralized AI space, with partnerships across Web3’s top ecosystems including Polygon, Arbitrum, and more.
0G’s infrastructure not only boosts performance and scalability but also dramatically lowers costs, making it ideal for onchain AI applications, DeFi protocols, gaming, and beyond. This episode is essential for anyone passionate about the future of AI, blockchain, and decentralized technologies reshaping the digital landscape.
