Zeronet- It is much faster than Alphanet. It has 128 blocks in each cycle. Each block has a target time of 30 seconds.

It is the main program. It has three main roles
It validates blocks and operations
It broadcasts blocks and operations to other nodes and receives them from other nodes over a peer-to-peer network.
It maintains a copy of the blockchain data and its associated state.
