About the Project

Designed for lightweight message passing across chains, LayerZero aims to provide authentic and guaranteed message delivery with configurable trustlessness via a low-level communication primitive, upon which a diverse set of cross-chain applications can be built. Using this primitive, developers can implement inter-chain applications like a cross-chain DEX or multi-chain yield aggregator without having to rely on a trusted custodian or intermediate transactions. LayerZero currently supports cross-chain messaging between Ethereum, BNB Chain, Avalanche, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Fantom.

 

About the Integration

With LayerZero, developers building connected contracts on Moonbeam have an even wider array of secure messaging features at their disposal, making it easier to design applications that can tap into functionality across many remote blockchains. Developers on Moonbeam can use LayerZero’s messaging standard — in addition to Axelar, Polkadot’s XCM, and other protocols — to build the next generation of applications without the constraints of solo chain development, capable of resolving today’s fragmented user experience, liquidity, and data.
