LayerZero Integrates Chainlink Oracles

Chainlink has been integrated into permissionless network of Oracles and Relayers which secure cross-chain messaging across LayerZero.

Before LayerZero, the Web3 industry was fragmented across a vast set of disparate blockchains. Applications were launched as single-chain and developers were forced to choose a popular, existing blockchain. Or take a gamble on the future success of an up-and-coming blockchain. With the advent of LayerZero, applications can finally be built everywhere. Utilizing each chain’s best Features, and ushering in a new era of applications: Omnichain dApps.

LayerZero Integrates Chainlink Oracles

LayerZero achieves best-in-class messaging security with its non-upgradeable, permissionless smart contracts that perform on-chain validation of all messages. The protocol achieves this by utilizing an on-chain Ultra Light Node. An oracle entity is responsible for delivering a block header. And an independent relayer entity is accountable for submitting a transaction proof.

The oracle(s) and relayer(s) framework is entirely permissionless. Allowing any application or individual to participate as one entity. However applications maintain agency and responsibility for selection of the participating entities. To achieve a secure, robust and decentralized messaging protocol. LayerZero offers omnichain dApps the optionality of a variety of oracles and relayers. As a major milestone in achieving the decentralization of the LayerZero protocol. LayerZero leverages Chainlink’s blockchain-agnostic oracles. To provide a best-in-class security option for omnichain dApps.

By combining LayerZero’s omnichain communication protocol with Chainlink’s oracle network, omnichain dApps can create a host of new functionalities for their users. While not an exhaustive list, here are some of the novel capabilities this integration will enable:

  1. Universal Decentralized Finance
  2. Unlock Liquidity — Utilize your isolated assets to yield farm any pool on any blockchain environment.
  3. Multi-chain lending and borrowing — Lend and borrow assets across chains.
  4. Derivatives for every asset — Create derivatives contracts for any previously siloed token or currency.
  5. Transaction Optimization — High-throughput and computationally intensive dApps can offload their expensive transactions to a more cost-effective blockchain environment.
  6. Determine State — Easily verify the state of any blockchain or layer-2 system from a different blockchain.

About Chainlink

Chainlink is the industry-standard Web3 services platform. That has enabled trillions of dollars in transaction volume across DeFi, insurance, gaming, NFTs. As the leading decentralized oracle network. Chainlink enables developers to build feature-rich Web3 applications. With seamless access to real-world data and off-chain computation. Across any blockchain and provides global enterprises with a universal gateway to all blockchains.

About LayerZero

LayerZero is an omnichain interoperability protocol that allows dApps. To build across multiple blockchains in a trustless, efficient manner. LayerZero connects dApps across chains using on-chain Ultra Light Nodes. Which achieve the security of a light node with the cost-effectiveness of a middle-chain. Using the protocol, developers can turn their dApps into omnichain-applications. Using a single, simple interface.

Analyst: ETH Not Ready for Bull Run till Huge Correction

Image
Benjamin Cowen, a cryptocurrency strategist, is bearish on Ethereum (ETH) because the second-largest digital asset has failed to climb back above a key resistance level. In a new video, Cowen tells his 785,000 YouTube subscribers that the price of Ethereum is likely to go down because there is a lot of “anxiety” around the $1,800 mark. Cowen says that there isn’t as much “apathy” in the market as there was during the bear season of 2019/2020. “There’s so much anxiety in this level [$1,800 resistance level] like I think it’s much more likely to break down eventually… I will be the first to admit it’s taking longer than I thought it would. But I also don’t really feel that same type of apathy in the market now that I did back in 2019 and 2020.” At the time of writing, one Ethereum is worth $1,736. Cowen says that less people would care about Ethereum if the price of the second most valuable cryptocurrency fell to triple digi...

Ben Armstrong argued that selling XRP is unwise due to perceived underperformance. He dismissed comparing XRP to Solana (SOL) and Avalanche (AVAX). Armstrong claimed XRP’s uptrend would commence in January, urging investors to pack their bags. In a recent YouTube video, crypto analyst Ben Armstrong argued that selling XRP is unwise due to perceived underperformance. While acknowledging XRP’s historical lackluster trend, he first addressed concerns related to XRP’s failure to sustain its bullish momentum following the victory from the legal dispute. Armstrong argued that broader market conditions suppressed further gains. Furthermore, he countered critical views about XRP’s failure to engineer a bullish trajectory like other rivals such as Solana (SOL) and Avalanche (AVAX), which have seen more than 100% gains.   He dismissed such comparisons and drew parallels to Ethereum’s delayed ascent in previous cycles. Moreover, he caution...
