LayerZero protocol
Overview
LayerZero functions as a cross-chain messaging protocol, facilitating trustless asset transfers and communication across distinct blockchains. Its architecture uses an ultralight node model, which depends on oracles and relayers to verify messages. This setup permits decentralized applications to function on multiple networks without requiring supplementary bridging infrastructure.
Within The Counterparty graph, LayerZero connects to 29 tracked entities, most strongly to Ethereum, LayerZero Labs, USDT0 (Omnichain Tether).
