About

LayerZero builds technology that makes decentralization viable, scalable, and inevitable. As an omnichain interoperability protocol, LayerZero provides a permissionless, open framework designed to securely move information between blockchains. The protocol empowers applications to bring their own security, execution, and crosschain interaction, creating a predictable and adaptable foundation for decentralized applications operating across multiple networks.

The company's architecture combines immutable smart contracts deployed on each blockchain, configurable message libraries, and modular security owned by applications. Instead of relying on centralized verifiers, LayerZero enables each application to configure its own security stack using decentralized verifier networks (DVNs). This approach has secured over $75 billion in assets and facilitated $200 billion in historical volume across more than 700 companies. LayerZero's ecosystem includes core products like the interoperability protocol, Stargate finance for liquidity transport, and Zero - an institutional blockchain designed for global financial markets.
