From bridge to backbone. Cross-chain consolidation in action. $STG → $ZRO
Dr Martin Hiesboeck
Dr Martin Hiesboeck
The @LayerZero_Core Foundation has successfully acquired @StargateFinance Finance, a prominent cross-chain bridge protocol. This acquisition, valued at approximately $110 million, was approved by a 95% majority vote from the Stargate decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), despite a competing bid from rival protocol Wormhole. The merger is a strategic move to integrate Stargate's liquidity infrastructure into the broader LayerZero ecosystem. LayerZero, which originally developed and launched Stargate in 2022, aims to consolidate its technology stack, streamline governance, and enhance its position in the cross-chain interoperability space. As part of the deal, the Stargate DAO will be dissolved, and the STG token will be retired. STG to ZRO Token Conversion The core of this acquisition involves a fixed token swap, allowing STG token holders to convert their tokens into LayerZero's native ZRO token. The official exchange rate is fixed at 1 STG = 0.08634 ZRO. The conversion is now live on the official Stargate platform. Users are required to connect their wallets and convert their entire STG balance, as partial conversions are not supported. The process is final and irreversible once the transaction is confirmed and signed. The merger aims to create a more cohesive and efficient ecosystem by bringing Stargate's bridging capabilities directly under LayerZero's control. This consolidation is expected to accelerate development and simplify user experience. Following the acquisition, Stargate's revenue streams will no longer be used for STG staking rewards. Instead, the revenue will be allocated to ZRO token buybacks, which could potentially benefit ZRO token holders by reducing supply and increasing value. The acquisition marks a significant moment in the DeFi space, consolidating a key piece of cross-chain infrastructure and potentially setting a precedent for future mergers in the industry.

September will be a season of harvest, as some new and old projects have coincidentally announced their TGE around this time. Although the timing of sowing may have been months or even years ago, it is still important to have a basic understanding of market trends. Before writing today, I mentioned one of the new three pillars of ZK, @union_build, which recently announced its tokenomics. Let's first look at the fundamentals. ❶ Union is a zero-knowledge cross-chain interoperability protocol dedicated to building a trustless cross-chain messaging and asset bridging infrastructure. ❷ It has currently raised $16 million in funding, with investors including gCC, Longhash, Foresight, and others. ❸ It has completed over 325 million testnet transactions, accounting for 97% of the external TVL in Babylon Genesis. It has formed partnerships with Berachain, Polygon, Celestia, Avalanche, and others. Differentiation and Advantages Unlike our traditional perception of cross-chain bridges, Union is creating a protocol layer that connects different chains. In simple terms: Union deploys a lightweight client for all chains that integrate it, providing a standardized zk proof generation for all cross-chain transactions. This is thanks to Union's lack of centralized dependencies. Unlike traditional cross-chain protocols that rely on multi-signatures and external validation nodes, it operates entirely on zero-knowledge proofs. This is also why many BTCFi protocols and mainstream L1/L2 have chosen it. Currently, Union has achieved interoperability among the chains shown in the image below, and plans to illuminate the entire landscape in the future, achieving cross-chain interoperability across EVM + Cosmos + Solana. I have compiled the current status of several cross-chain protocols that have already issued tokens, which can serve as a reference for estimating Union's FDV.

Interoperability protocols during this period This track seems to be on fire again For example, link, I see a lot of people mentioning it Interoperability happens to have an item that I am interested in @union_build Union unveiled Tokenomics I took a look Interoperability protocol Speaking of people Between different chains Establish general rules And some people may be confused Cross-chain bridge It is the road between different chains are all indispensable parts of interaction Union's large financing I won't talk about investors or groups Let's focus on the situation of the cent There are also a lot of anti-jerk projects recently It is really patterned to be able to give retail investors something to eat It is more common for investors to lock their positions for 12 months But I can summarize it Nearly 60% of the supply is supplied to users Builders, governance, and network growth That's a lot of pattern Overall inflation rate Compared with ZRO and W About 6% of these interoperability protocol projects Only about 2% Therefore, the selling pressure for subsequent unlocks is significantly lower If the market value is benchmarked It can't compare with the link of more than 20 B knives But with W, AXL these 400-800m There is still a certain degree of comparability I feel that the market's eyes are going to this track again Focus on the first hand

Dive deeper into LayerZero

LayerZero is an omnichain interoperability protocol that supports communication and data exchange between blockchain networks. Its technology aims to address the limitations of today’s blockchains, where networks operate and store valuable data independently, by acting as a bridge between networks.

LayerZero intends to prioritize intrinsic security and universal semantics with the omnichain messaging protocol (OMP) it has developed. The OMP supports a fully connected mesh network that can be scaled to all blockchains for a wide variety of use cases.

By enabling greater crosschain interoperability, solutions such as LayerZero have the potential to bring about significant advancements to blockchain technology and create new possibilities for developers and end users. Close to 100 decentralized applications now integrate LayerZero across use cases including decentralized autonomous organizations, decentralized finance, non-fungible tokens (NFT), gaming, and more.

In May 2024, LayerZero Labs announced the expansion of the protocol to the Solana blockchain. Users can now transfer their assets to more than 70 chains including Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Polygon.

How does LayerZero work?

Four core components allow LayerZero to provide a secure, high-performance bridge between different blockchains.

Immutable endpoints

Immutable endpoints are the metaphorical bridges between blockchain networks, providing secure communication between them. The endpoints are immutable smart contracts that provide a standardized interface for omnichain applications to manage security and send and receive messages.

Immutable endpoints are censorship resistant to prevent disruption to the transfer of messages. Meanwhile, exactly-once delivery guarantees that a message is delivered to the destination chain only once, preventing data duplication or loss. Liveness — which refers to a system’s ability to continuously process transactions — is another key feature of immutable endpoints, guaranteeing that messages will eventually be delivered even during network delays or congestion.

MessageLibs

MessageLibs are on-chain security modules that prevent messages from being tampered with as they’re transferred across chains. To achieve this, MessageLibs are pre-defined and cryptographically secured on the blockchain. The technology’s modularity means that various MessageLibs can be developed to manage different verification needs depending on the type of data being transferred. This modularity also allows MessageLibs to be tailored to developers’ different requirements, so they can choose a module best suited to their application.

Decentralized Verifier Networks (DVNs)

DVNs are the decentralized security layer of the LayerZero ecosystem. The feature uses collective verification, where multiple independent verifiers confirm the cryptographic proofs within a message packet, to create a resilient verification process. A DVN’s security level can be configured to suit an application’s specific needs, while permissionless participation allows anyone to stake tokens and support the verification process.

Security Stacks

Security Stacks allow developers to choose, modify, and combine various verification methods to meet the specific requirements of their application. Security Stacks comprise DVNs and MessageLibs, and its modularity gives developers the flexibility to change their security configuration in the case of DVN failure or changing security needs.

ZRO price and tokenomics

The ZRO token launched on June 20, 2024, with the project owners stating the launch wasn’t a conventional airdrop. Those wanting to claim the token are required to donate $0.10 in USDC, USDT, or native ETH per each ZRO claimed to hold the tokens. Called Proof of Donation, the claiming mechanism was designed to bring around $18.5 million to Protocol Guild — a collective funding mechanism for Ethereum’s Layer-1 developers.

ZRO has a current market cap of $627.25 million and a total circulating supply of 250,000,000 ZRO.

About the founders

LayerZero is the product of LayerZero Labs, founded in 2021 by Bryan Pellegrino, Ryan Zarick, and Caleb Banister. The idea for the protocol was born during the development of an NFT game, when the team realized the need for a cross-chain mechanism to support the transfer of NFTs between networks.
