Blockchains work because public information can be verified by everyone. But much of the real economy runs on private data: credit records, financial statements, compliance documents, proprietary research. That means oracles need to do more than bring data onchain. They need to verify what matters without exposing what should remain private. And that's what we do.

Blockchains cannot read each other. A user holding Bitcoin cannot spend it in an application built on Ethereum, because the two networks share no ledger. Cross-chain bridges close that gap. The asset is locked, burned or pooled on one chain and the equivalent is issued on another, as two separate entries connected by a protocol. Our new blockchain basics article explains how bridges work, how they differ from decentralized exchanges and coin swap services, and where the compliance risk sits.

Blockchains are getting busier and cheaper at once. Ethereum: 68% more transactions year over year, cost down from $1.08 to $0.31. Solana: 9.8 bln transactions at half a cent. What cheap blockspace opens up for builders, from perps to agent-driven apps:

“Blockchains Are Cities” from @hosseeb and @jmonegro “Fat Protocols” are two pieces I’ve returned to repeatedly over the yrs But things changed in the last 10 years This piece looks at the trade-offs between ETH, SOL, and HYPE and why all 3 can win imo

blockchains are the everything exchange assets, information, ownership changing hands and settling every slot. the prize is being where information gets discovered. every new thing built there makes discovery faster for everything already there. it only compounds in one place.

Blockchains delivered self-custody for asset holders. LayerZero extends it to asset issuers: the infrastructure to issue, move, and secure any asset across any chain with the issuer itself able to attest every transfer. Read our latest article about Self Custodied Applications below:

Blockchains (like @solana) keep launching accelerators, incubators and holding contests to drive development in web3 ... will it help? Solana adds incubator to spur growth and woo founders away from rival chains
