LayerZero OTC

Introducing LayerZero

LayerZero is an interoperability protocol that connects blockchains (50+ and counting), allowing developers to build seamless omnichain applications, tokens, and experiences. Using smart contracts deployed on each chain, in combination with Decentralized Verifier Networks (DVNs) and Executors, LayerZero enables different blockchains to seamlessly interact with one another. The protocol relies on immutable on-chain endpoints, a configurable Security Stack, and a permissionless set of Executors to transfer censorship-resistant messages between chains.

In LayerZero V2, message verification and execution have been separated into two distinct phases, providing developers with more control over their application's security configuration and independent execution.

Combined with improved handling, message throughput, programmability, and other contract specific improvements, LayerZero V2 provides a more flexible, performant, and future-proof messaging protocol.

Features

• Immutable: Endpoints (the interface for interacting with LayerZero) exist as immutable smart contracts on each chain LayerZero supports. These are non-upgradeable and cannot be changed by any party, providing a safe and predictable interface to interact with. Every piece of core protocol code is non-upgradable. Neither LayerZero Labs nor anyone else besides the owner of the omnichain application has the ability to change an application's security configuration (unless Defaults or a delegate is selected to do so).

• Censorship-Resistant: Individual messages can only be executed once all previous messages have been verified, meaning no individual message can ever be censored on any pathway. There is no ability for the LayerZero protocol to selectively deliver messages once they're successfully submitted on the source chain. If a transaction is successfully submitted on the source chain, it is guaranteed to be delivered to the destination chain.

• Permissionless: LayerZero is a pure protocol. Anyone can run the infrastructure that verifies and executes messages sent via LayerZero. If every developer and infrastructure provider stopped performing services, anybody could come in to join the protocol and pick up right where they left off. Furthermore, anyone may build on top of LayerZero and interact with those applications.
