About LayerZero
LayerZero is an interoperability protocol that lets applications send messages between blockchains, so a single application can operate across many networks. ZRO is the protocol's token, used for governance and fees.
How LayerZero Works
Messages are relayed between chains and verified by configurable sets of independent verifiers, which applications choose themselves rather than inheriting a single fixed trust assumption. That flexibility is the protocol's distinguishing feature: a developer decides what security model their application relies on.
The History of LayerZero
Founded by Bryan Pellegrino, Ryan Zarick and Caleb Banister, LayerZero launched in 2021 and became one of the most integrated messaging layers in the sector. The ZRO token launched in mid-2024 with a distribution that deliberately filtered out airdrop farming, a process that drew both praise and criticism.
What ZRO Is Used For
ZRO is used for protocol governance and can be paid as a fee for cross-chain messaging. It also underpins the protocol's economics as its usage across integrated applications grows.
