The Connectivity Layer

Discover the infrastructure that powers secure cross-chain communication.

Infrastructure for Communication

LayerZero is not a blockchain or an application. It is infrastructure that allows blockchains to communicate.

What LayerZero Provides

  • A messaging layer between chains
  • A way for apps and tokens to operate across networks
  • A foundation for omnichain applications

Empowering Developers

Developers integrate LayerZero into their protocols so they can:

  • Send messages cross-chain
  • Move assets without relying on wrapped tokens
  • Build apps that feel chain-agnostic

Key points to remember:

  • LayerZero is infrastructure, not an app
  • Developers use it directly; users benefit indirectly
  • It enables omnichain behavior
