About LayerZero Labs
LayerZero Labs develops LayerZero, an omnichain interoperability protocol that enables secure messaging and data/asset transfers between disparate blockchains, allowing decentralized applications to operate across multiple chains without centralizing security. The protocol uses a User Application configurable on-chain endpoint with Oracle and Relayer components to reduce transaction failures. It serves the blockchain ecosystem by connecting isolated chains.
