Introduction
LayerZero is an omnichain interoperability protocol designed for lightweight message passing across chains. LayerZero provides authentic and guaranteed message delivery with configurable trustlessness. It is a “blockchain of blockchains” that allows other blockchain networks to communicate directly and in a trustless manner.
Avalon Labs launches Bitcoin-backed USDa stablecoin
Avalon Labs has introduced USDa, a new stablecoin backed by Bitcoin, designed to unlock liquidity for Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) holders without requiring them to sell their holdings. Built on LayerZero's (CRYPTO:ZRO) cross-chain technology, USDa aims to integrate Bitcoin as an active source of liquidity within both decentralised (DeFi) and centralised (CeFi) financial systems. USDa enables Bitcoin holders to collateralise their assets in return for stablecoin liquidity at a fixed borrowing rate of 8%. This approach allows holders to participate in yield-generating activities in DeFi protocols while maintaining ownership of their Bitcoin. Avalon Labs has designed the USDa supply to scale proportionally with the Bitcoin collateral, a measure intended to maintain the stablecoin’s 1:1 peg with USDT and reduce the risk of depegging. However, its performance in fluctuating market conditions will be closely observed. To ensure security and transparency, Avalon Labs has partnered with custodians such as Cobo, Ceffu, and Coinbase Prime. These partnerships provide institutional-grade custody solutions with publicly accessible addresses for both retail and institutional users. Avalon Labs’ development of USDa comes as the crypto industry continues to explore Bitcoin-backed financial instruments. These developments aim to enhance liquidity and expand Bitcoin’s role beyond a passive store of value. The introduction of USDa could set a precedent for similar solutions within the digital asset space, fostering broader participation in DeFi and CeFi. Industry experts are expected to discuss these advancements at Benzinga's Future of Digital Assets event on November 19, where leaders will examine the implications of Bitcoin’s growing role in financial frameworks. At the time of reporting, the Bitcoin price was $87,467.01.

Watch Out: 5 Altcoins in South Korea See Trading Volume Boom – Here’s the List
South Korea’s largest cryptocurrency exchange Upbit has recorded dramatic increases in trading volumes for several altcoins. These notable increases observed on the one-hour and four-hour trading charts indicate high activity, which contrasts with trends on global platforms like Binance. One of the notable moves was seen on Beam (BEAM). On its four-hour chart, BEAM’s trading volume on Upbit skyrocketed to $63 million, a 212.77% increase from its 50-period average of $20 million. However, the picture was quite different on Binance, where BEAM’s volume dropped by 39.80% from an average of $6 million to $4 million. Another token that caught our attention was LayerZero (ZRO). On the one-hour chart, ZRO saw an explosive 365.80% increase on Upbit, with trading volumes reaching $190,000 compared to an average of $41,000. Binance saw a more modest 45.63% increase, with volumes rising from $97,000 to $141,000. Related News Arthur Hayes Reveals His Preferred Altcoin Instead of Ethereum: Warns Cryptocurrency Market About US Elections Bounce Token (AUCTION) also saw a significant increase in trading volume on Upbit, rising 246.49% from an average of $3,000 to $11,000 on the one-hour chart. Again, the movement on Binance differed significantly with a 56.76% decrease in volume, falling from an average of $4,000 to just $2,000. Theta Fuel (TFUEL) followed a trend of significant volume increases on Upbit, rising 339.14% in a one-hour period, from an average of $418,000 to $2 million. On Binance, volume slightly decreased, dropping 3.38% to $471,000 from an average of $488,000. Stargate Finance (STG) contributed to this pattern with a 165.54% increase in trading volume on Upbit, rising from $137,000 to $363,000 in a one-hour time frame. Meanwhile, Binance saw a 19.60% drop, with STG volumes falling from $175,000 to $140,000. *This is not investment advice.

A new path for cross-chain information: LayerZero and EigenLayer launch CryptoEconomic DVN framework
Original author: YBB Capital Researcher Ac-Core TL;DR The CryptoEconomic DVN Framework combines LayerZero’s cross-chain messaging with EigenLayer’s economic security and incentives. The DVN framework operates through a structured process with three main phases: verification, veto, and punishment; LayerZero chose to work with EigenLayer to further deepen the decentralization of its DVN, accepting ETH, ZRO, and EIGEN as collateral assets while also bringing new growth flywheels to both tokens; The CryptoEconomic DVN Framework may help improve the security of the entire chain in the future. 1. Understanding the narrative background: Iterative upgrades of EigenLayer and LayerZero Image source: LayerZero Official According to a news release on October 2, 2024, LayerZero Labs and Eigen Labs have jointly launched a crypto-economic decentralized verification network (DVN) framework, which aims to provide crypto-economic security for full-chain messaging. Under this framework, developers can not only deploy their own DVN on EigenLayer, but also enhance the security and reliability of cross-chain messaging by introducing incentive mechanisms. To quickly summarize in one sentence, the CoyptoEconomicDVN framework combines the cross-chain security mechanism of LayerZero with the dual protection of EigenLayers re-staking encryption. Its core purpose is to use EigenLayers crypto-economic model to provide higher security and incentives for the decentralized verification network (DVN). 1.1 Step 1: CryptoEconomic DVN’s cross-chain mechanism paves the way for LayerZero V2 LayerZero is not only an asset cross-chain but also a trustless cross-chain communication protocol. It separates the ultimate trust link through repeaters and oracles, that is, it realizes cross-chain messages through a super light node mechanism. The core design of the LayerZero V2 architecture can be divided into three categories: protocols, standards, and infrastructure. 1. Protocol The protocol portion of LayerZero is consistent across all supported blockchains and is immutable and permissionless, ensuring censorship resistance and long-term stability. This portion consists of two main components: Endpoints: These are immutable, non-upgradeable smart contracts on each blockchain and are at the heart of the LayerZero protocol. Endpoints provide a standardized interface for applications to manage security configurations and send/receive messages across chains. Due to the immutability of endpoints, once they are deployed, no entity can modify them; MessageLibs: Message libraries are connected to endpoints and are responsible for handling cross-chain message verification and communication. Each message library update is additive and does not replace the old version, so that even if the protocol needs to be upgraded, developers can still choose to use the old message library to ensure backward compatibility. This is similar to different versions of smart contracts on the blockchain, and users can choose different versions to use as needed. Image source: LayerZero endpoint description 2. Standards The standards provided by LayerZero allow developers to build applications and tokens that run consistently across multiple blockchains, achieving cross-chain “unified semantics”, meaning that applications or tokens behave the same across different blockchains. These standards help simplify the development process and ensure consistency and scalability of cross-chain applications. Contract Standards: LayerZero provides standards such as OApp (Omnichain Application) and OFT (Omnichain Token), which extend existing smart contract standards (for example, OFT is an extension of the ERC-20 standard), allowing developers to quickly create applications and tokens that can run on all LayerZero-supported blockchains; Message Packets: used to transfer data and commands between blockchains. Message packets contain elements to prevent replay attacks and incorrect routing (such as Nonce, source/target chain ID, unique identifier), and contain the actual command or data payload to be executed on the target chain. This message format can adapt to various blockchain environments (including EVM and non-EVM chains, public chains and private chains), ensuring the accuracy and security of cross-chain information transmission; Design Patterns: LayerZero provides a series of design patterns (such as AB, ABA, and combined AB) that provide developers with the basic building blocks for cross-chain applications and simplify the process of developing complex cross-chain interactions. These patterns can help developers create a more concise and efficient user experience, such as completing cross-chain bridging and exchange of tokens in one transaction. Image source: Combinatorial ABA design pattern 3. Infrastructure LayerZeros infrastructure layer is fully open and modular, and any entity can join the LayerZero network to verify and execute transactions. This design enables applications to choose different verification and execution methods according to their needs to achieve the optimal balance in terms of security, cost, speed, etc. Decentralized Verification Networks (DVNs): These networks verify cross-chain messages, and any entity that can verify cross-chain data packets can join LayerZero as a DVN. This decentralized design allows applications to choose the right combination of validators to avoid being locked into a single validator network. Currently, there are 15+ DVNs participating in LayerZero, including the zkLight client provided by Google Cloud and Polyhedra; Executors: Any entity can run an executor, which is responsible for ensuring the smooth execution of cross-chain messages on the target chain. Executors simplify the user experience, allowing users to only pay gas fees on the source chain without having to perform additional operations on the target chain. Applications can choose one or more executors based on their needs, and can even build their own executors or choose to manually execute cross-chain messages; Security Stack: Each application can configure a unique security stack based on its needs, including the selection of DVNs, executors, and other security preferences. The security stack allows applications to choose how to verify cross-chain messages and make adjustments when necessary, providing a highly customized security solution and avoiding being locked into a single security model. To better understand the CryptoEconomic DVN Framework, here is some additional information about LayerZero V2 DVN: Decentralized verification networks (DVNs) are used to verify messages transmitted between different blockchain networks. Each application built on LayerZero can customize its security stack by choosing DVNs. The key points are: 1. DVNs: These entities are responsible for verifying cross-chain messages and ensuring their security and integrity. Developers can configure which DVNs to use as needed and set optional verification thresholds. 2. Openness: Anyone can create or develop a DVN, which provides a variety of verification options. DVNs can include validators, signers, or adopt advanced technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs (ZKP) and intermediate chains. 3. Customizable security: Applications can choose different DVNs based on their security needs. Unlike the one-size-fits-all model of other protocols, this flexibility enables applications to adjust security settings as needed, reducing costs and risks. 4. DVN combination: Through the X of Y of N configuration, applications can choose multiple DVNs to verify messages. For example, a “1 of 3 of 5” configuration would require one specific DVN and two other validators chosen from among the five DVNs. Image source: DVNs position in the V2 architecture 1.2 Part 2: CryptoEconomic DVN’s Cryptoeconomic Security EigenLayer EigenLayer consists of a series of smart contracts that allow users to choose to re-stake their ETH or Liquidity Staking Tokens (LST) to guide new Proof of Stake (PoS) networks and services in the Ethereum ecosystem, obtain additional staking income/rewards, and provide security and decentralization attributes for other modular components and blockchain networks. Simply put, its essence is to sell the security of Ethereum. EigenLayer has created five categories: native re-staking, LRT, AVS, super-large-scale Rollups, and committed applications. 1. Native re-staking Ability to input multiple commitments for verification at the same time, measure the cryptoeconomic bandwidth consumed by each commitment, and ensure that all commitments are solvent. The essence is Ethereums Elastic Extension of Security (ES 2). If the conditions of each AVS are met, they can all be secure; 2. Liquidity Re-Pledge LRT is a mechanism where Liquidity Restaking Tokens (LRTs) are similar to Liquidity Staking Tokens (LSD) on Ethereum, which are tokenized representations of assets stored on EigenLayer, thereby unlocking the liquidity that was originally locked; 3. AVS Economy The core of EienLayer is the collection of decentralized systems that can be built, and the ability to pair the technology with a certain degree of decentralized trust architecture. The AVS-centric roadmap ensures that permissionless decentralized services can be integrated to build any application and create different categories and customized AVS on Eigenlayer; 4. Large-Scale Rollups Most crypto application development is still limited by block space. There is no corresponding concept of cloud space, which will expand according to demand. EigenDA, for example, is a mechanism for infinitely scaling bandwidth and enables a variety of new use cases that were not possible before: converting the cloud to crypto; 5. Have a trustworthy application Eigenlayer was built to maximize the number of commitments. EigenLayer + Ethereum provides Ethereum-level diversity and verifiable commitments. For example: 1. Maximizing the increase effect through EigenDA; 2. Achieving diversity through open innovation in Eigenlayer AVS; 3. Introducing off-chain verifiability into the on-chain mechanism to achieve verifiable computing. 2. Token economy empowerment, LayerZero x EigenLayer dual cooperation, ZRO and EIGEN can be used as collateral assets Image source: Explaining the process of staking, verification, veto and punishment Long story short, CryptoEconomic Distributed Verification Networks (DVNs) improve cross-chain security in three key ways: Cryptoeconomic security: DVNs introduce a penalty mechanism (Slashing). When a DVN behaves maliciously or makes mistakes, its staked assets will be punished. This economic model ensures that DVN has sufficient economic incentives to maintain correct behavior, because improper behavior will result in significant economic losses, thereby promoting its sense of responsibility and security; AVS-defined security: Each Active Verification Service (AVS) defines the types of assets that can be staked and their penalty conditions. This flexibility allows different types of DVNs (such as ZKP-based, Middlechain-based, or Proof-of-Authority DVNs) to enhance their security through additional staking guarantees, further increasing the economic deterrent against malicious behavior; Permissionless security: Anyone can contribute to the security of DVN by staking assets, which makes the system more open and participatory. DVNs can choose any asset (such as ZRO, ETH, EIGEN) to support their network, broadening security options and enhancing decentralization. The CryptoEconomic DVN framework is an open source system that aims to enhance the security of the decentralized verification network (DVN) through economic incentives tied to tokens. It relies on LayerZeros DVN verification messages and adds an additional layer of security. Specifically, four key mechanisms are used to protect LayerZeros cross-chain messaging: staking, verification, veto, and punishment. Staking: Validators (stakers) lock tokens such as ZRO, EIGEN, or ETH in the DVN’s Active Validation Set (AVS) as collateral. Staking funds incentivize validators to act honestly, because if they misbehave, the staked assets may be punished (slashed); Verification: A user or application can trigger a cross-chain round-trip message (Ethereum → source chain → target chain → Ethereum) to verify that the hash value recorded by the DVN matches the hash value recorded on the chain. If they match, the process ends; Veto: If a mismatch is found, a veto process is initiated, allowing token holders to vote on whether to penalize (slash) DVNs stake. This step prevents false slashing due to non-malicious errors such as blockchain reorganizations, as reorganizations may cause data packets to mismatch, but DVN may actually be honest; Penalty: If the veto fails and DVN is confirmed to have malicious behavior or verification errors, the DVN staked assets will be slashed. The framework is divided into three phases: Phase 1: Verification – Messages are verified on multiple chains, using independent DVNs to ensure fairness; Phase 2: Veto – If a discrepancy is found, the veto contract is triggered and holders vote on whether to slash their DVN stake. Phase 3: Punishment – If the veto fails, DVN’s staked assets will be slashed due to malicious behavior or incorrect verification. 3. Views on CryptoEconomic DVN Framework Today, the Ethereum infrastructure is becoming more complete, and the multi-chain structure has become a foregone conclusion. The communication security issue between different chains is still a challenge that cannot be ignored. The main innovation of the CryptoEconomic DVN Framework is that it provides core components for DVN through AVS, defines the pledged assets and penalty mechanism. In the long run, it may help improve the security of the entire chain, but the uncertain impact it brings is also a common problem in the industry. How to find a balance between security and flexibility is a problem that needs to be solved in the future. There is no doubt that the CryptoEconomic DVN Framework is a two-way empowerment cooperation between LayerZero Labs and Eigen Labs. From a technical perspective, it provides protection through staking, penalty mechanisms, verification and veto mechanisms; but from an economic benefit perspective, this is still a nesting doll operation of PoS staking income. LayerZero chose to work with EigenLayer to further deepen the decentralization of its DVN, accepting ETH, ZRO and EIGEN as collateral assets while also bringing new growth flywheels to both tokens. LayerZero provides technology and EigenLayer provides funding. The cooperation between the two parties allows validators to be rewarded and encourages honest behavior in this economic system.

A suspected PORTAL market maker address withdrew $2.6 million worth of ZRO from CEX three hours ago
According to @ai_9684xtpa's monitoring, three hours ago, a suspected PORTAL market maker address withdrew $2.6 million worth of ZRO from CEX, making it the second largest asset held by this address ($4.03 million). The top one is AVAX ($13.42 million). Prior to this, there had been no ZRO interaction with this address for over a month.
LayerZero and Eigen Labs boost cross-chain transaction security
LayerZero Labs and Eigen Labs have partnered to create the Cryptoeconomic Decentralized Verifier Networks (DVNs) Framework, designed to improve the security of cross-chain transactions. The new system leverages financial incentives and technical verification to safeguard cross-chain messaging. According to a blog post from LayerZero on October 2, this collaboration addresses challenges such as limited security participation and a lack of economic incentives in existing systems. DVNs allow verifiers to stake assets like Ethereum (CRYPTO:ETH) or native tokens such as EIGEN (CRYPTO:EIGEN) or ZRO (CRYPTO:ZRO) as collateral. If a verifier acts dishonestly or makes mistakes, the staked assets can be slashed, ensuring the system's integrity. The process consists of four primary mechanisms: staking assets, sending and verifying messages across blockchains, voting to veto staked assets if discrepancies are found, and slashing assets in case of malicious behavior. These mechanisms aim to create a more secure environment for decentralized cross-chain communication. Eigen Labs highlighted that the re-staking primitive in EigenLayer allows anyone to stake their assets, further adding a layer of security to omnichannel messaging. The system's flexibility enables application-specific DVNs with customizable security parameters, encouraging wider participation in securing blockchain transactions. The open-source nature of the DVN framework allows other teams to launch their own networks using their preferred assets for staking, expanding the potential use cases. As more entities adopt this framework, LayerZero Labs anticipates that blockchain communication will increasingly emphasize trust, transparency, and accountability. At the time of reporting, EigenLayer has a total value locked (TVL) of $10.8 billion, though this has declined by 50% over the past four months, according to DeFiLlama. The new DVN system is expected to bring more stability and security to cross-chain interactions, reinforcing trust in blockchain technology.
LayerZero Labs, Eigen Labs raise the stakes on cross-chain transactions
The team behind Ethereum re-staking protocol EigenLayer and cross-chain messaging protocol LayerZero have introduced a new system to make cross-chain communication more secure. In a blog post on Oct. 2, LayerZero Labs announced the partnership with Eigen Labs and introduced a framework for “CryptoEconomic Decentralized Verifier Networks” (DVNs). The system combines technical verification with financial incentives to ensure secure cross-chain messaging. It solves several issues regarding cross-chain security, such as lack of economic incentives to ensure trust, limited participation in security, and inflexibility in security models. DVNs leverage cryptoeconomic security, where verifiers stake assets that can be taken away or “slashed” if they act dishonestly or make mistakes. The system has four primary mechanisms to ensure cross-chain communication security. Verifiers lock up or stake assets like ETH , or other tokens such as the protocol’s native assets EIGEN or ZRO, as collateral. Messages are then sent and verified across blockchains. If a discrepancy is found, tokenholders can vote on whether to veto the staked assets. Finally, if malicious behavior is confirmed, the staked assets are taken away or slashed. Stake, verify, veto, slash process for DVNs. Source: LayerZero Labs The benefits of the system include increased security for cross-chain messaging, financial incentives for honest behavior, inclusion of any network to contribute by staking assets, and flexibility with various verification methods, according to the blog post. The framework is open source, which allows other teams to launch their own DVNs using their preferred assets to stake. This enables application-specific DVNs with customizable security parameters. Eigen Labs explained in a blog post that previously, the security of verifying omnichannel messages was solely based on the network’s verification mechanisms. “But now, with Eigenlayer’s re-staking primitive, anyone can stake their assets to provide an extra layer of security,” it added. Interoperability protocol LayerZero is a marketplace for DVN verifiers, with 35 entities currently participating, including zk-proof-based teams like Polyhedra, multi-bridge attestations from Hashi, and oracles like Google Cloud, it stated. Related: EigenLayer’s EIGEN cracks top 100 market rank in trading debut LayerZero Labs concluded that, as this framework is adopted, the future of blockchain communication will be “defined by trust, transparency, and accountability bringing us closer to a world where every message across blockchains is secured by cryptoeconomics.” EigenLayer currently has $10.8 billion in total value locked; however, according to DeFiLlama, that figure has fallen by almost 50% over the past four months.

Pepe Unchained (PEPU) has recently garnered attention in the crypto space thanks to its presale success and plans for future development. The project has raised $15.4 million so far, making it a standout among early-stage cryptocurrencies. With its upcoming Layer-2 blockchain specifically designed for meme coins, PEPU could see further growth, particularly with its goal of offering a network 100 times faster than Ethereum. One of the key features of the Pepe Unchained project is the introduction of tools like a block explorer and Ethereum bridging, which could make the platform attractive to meme coin traders and creators. The price of PEPU tokens currently sits at $0.00985, with expectations of further increases as the presale progresses. The project has allocated 40% of its total token supply to presale participants, while 10% is reserved for marketing efforts. Additionally, 7.5% of the supply is set aside for exchange liquidity when PEPU is listed on decentralized exchanges (DEXs). A major draw for investors is PEPU’s double staking protocol, which promises an estimated annual return of 137%. This staking option has already attracted over 1.16 billion PEPU tokens from investors. The project is also launching a developer incentive program, “Frens with Benefits,” which aims to attract blockchain developers to its Layer-2 network. Grants under this program, managed by the “Pepe Council,” are expected to start in Q4 2024. Visit Pepe Unchained Presale Read More Most Trending Cryptocurrency

LayerZero Sees Surge in User Activity After Announcing Second Airdrop Program, Average Daily Message Volume Up 433% from Low Point
on Sept. 26，Cross-chain communication protocol LayerZero has seen a resurgence in on-chain activity following the announcement of its second airdrop program, with average daily message volume rising to 98,000 on Saturday, up 433 percent from this low point (18,400), indicating renewed user interest in the protocol. Recent activity on the protocol has been subdued, with average daily messages hovering around 20,000 for several weeks. The announcement of the second airdrop appears to have been the catalyst for the surge in activity. It should be noted that wallets that claimed ZRO tokens in the first airdrop but did not show subsequent activity were excluded from this round, thus incentivizing users to continue participating in the protocol. This criterion is a clever mechanism to differentiate between genuine users and speculative “airdrop farmers,” potentially fostering a more active and loyal user base. (The Block)

User Activity in this Altcoin Increased by Over 400 Percent Suddenly, Here’s Why
LayerZero (ZRO), a cross-chain communication protocol, is experiencing a dramatic resurgence in activity following the announcement of its second airdrop. On Saturday, the number of daily messages on the platform rose to 98,000, a 433% increase from the previous low of 18,400. The spike came after a period of stagnation when message volume hovered around 20,000 per day. The increase in activity appears to be directly linked to the recent airdrop announcement, which introduced new eligibility criteria designed to encourage continued engagement with the protocol. Unlike the first airdrop, wallets that had previously claimed ZRO tokens but did not show further engagement were excluded from this round in a move aimed at filtering out “airdrop farmers” and rewarding more active participants.

LayerZero ZRO Sees 433% Surge in Activity Following Second Airdrop Announcement
Cryptocurrency protocol LayerZero ZRO is making headlines with a remarkable resurgence in user activity. The protocol has seen its daily messaging soar to 98,000, a stark contrast to its previous average of 20,000. LayerZero’s recent announcement regarding a second airdrop has significantly contributed to this uptick. Discover the factors driving LayerZero’s user activity resurgence and what it means for the future of cross-chain messaging protocols. Impressive Surge in Daily Messages on LayerZero Protocol LayerZero ZRO, the innovative cross-chain messaging protocol, recently recorded a dramatic increase in daily message volume, reaching 98,000 messages on Saturday. This represents a staggering 433% growth from its previous low of 18,400 messages. The substantial uptick follows weeks of stagnation, during which the protocol’s activity hovered around the 20,000 message mark. Impact of the Second Airdrop Announcement The pivotal driver behind this surge appears to be LayerZero’s announcement of a second airdrop. Historically, airdrops have been used as strategic incentives to increase user engagement and distribution of tokens. LayerZero’s recent move has not only reinvigorated its existing user base but has also attracted new participants, eager to claim their share of the airdrop. Long-term Implications of Increased Activity While the immediate uptick in user activity is promising, questions remain about the longevity of this interest. Will the excitement surrounding the airdrop lead to sustained usage of the LayerZero protocol, or will activity dwindle once the distribution period concludes? Observing patterns from similar protocols, there is a risk that daily message volumes might drop post-airdrop; however, if LayerZero can maintain engagement, it could signify robust long-term growth. Strategic Considerations for LayerZero’s Future LayerZero’s ability to keep users engaged post-airdrop will be critical in assessing its long-term viability. Continuing to innovate and provide valuable services could foster a loyal user base. Additionally, ensuring that the protocol remains secure and efficient will be paramount in maintaining users’ trust and interest. Conclusion The recent surge in LayerZero’s daily messaging activity, driven by the announcement of its second airdrop, underscores the protocol’s potential to re-engage and expand its user base. However, sustaining this growth will require strategic initiatives and ongoing innovation. Stakeholders will be closely watching if LayerZero can transform this short-term boost into long-term success, setting a precedent for cross-chain messaging protocols in the cryptocurrency space.

LayerZero activity surges 433% following second airdrop announcement
LayerZero ZRO +5.63% , the cross-chain messaging protocol, is witnessing a resurgence in activity, with daily messages rising to 98,000 on Saturday. This surge comes hot on the heels of the protocol announcing a second airdrop, breathing new life into the ecosystem. The recent spike represents a 433% increase from the previous low of 18,400 messages, signaling a renewed interest in the protocol. This resurgence is particularly noteworthy given the protocol's recent lull in activity, which had seen daily messages hovering around the 20,000 mark for several weeks. The announcement of a second airdrop appears to be the catalyst for this sudden uptick in activity. LayerZero's strategic move includes an interesting twist : Wallets that claimed ZRO tokens in the first airdrop but showed no subsequent activity are excluded from this round, incentivizing sustained engagement with the protocol. This criterion serves as a clever mechanism to distinguish between genuine users and opportunistic "airdrop farmers," potentially fostering a more active and committed user base. The implications of this strategy extend beyond just boosting short-term numbers: By rewarding active users, LayerZero is encouraging ongoing interaction with its protocol, which could lead to more organic growth and development of its ecosystem. The 30-day claim window for the new airdrop could sustain this heightened activity level as users scramble to meet potential criteria for future token distributions. As people start to claim their tokens, we’ll have to keep an eye out for the daily activity of LayerZero. Will this surge in activity translate into long-term adoption and use of the LayerZero protocol? Or will we see a drop-off once the airdrop excitement fades, similar to patterns observed with other protocols post-token distribution? This is an excerpt from The Block's Data & Insights newsletter . Dig into the numbers making up the industry's most thought-provoking trends.
