LayerZero is an innovative omnichain interoperability protocol designed to seamlessly connect disparate blockchain networks. By providing a secure and efficient communication layer, LayerZero enables decentralized applications (dApps) to interact across multiple blockchains, overcoming the limitations of isolated ecosystems.
The protocol leverages Ultra Light Nodes (ULNs) and a novel architecture that combines Oracle and Relayer for secure message delivery. This design ensures high reliability and minimal latency, fostering enhanced scalability and flexibility for developers. LayerZero's vision is to create a unified blockchain environment where assets and information can flow freely, unlocking new possibilities for cross-chain applications and advancing the decentralized finance (DeFi) landscape.
