- LayerZero has processed $260B across 830+ OFTs, supporting assets from memecoins to tokenized treasuries and stablecoins.
- Projects like USDT0, USDe, and Ondo use LayerZero to expand stablecoins and tokenized assets across multiple blockchain networks.
- Institutions including PayPal, Fidelity, and Deutsche Telekom use DVNs for compliance, verification, and cross-chain asset control.
LayerZero has processed more than $260 billion across over 830 Omnichain Fungible Tokens (OFTs) on 170-plus chains, according to the protocol. The network supports assets ranging from memecoins to tokenized financial products and state-issued stable tokens. It allows builders to set their own security, verification, and compliance requirements for cross-chain transfers.
Crypto Teams Use LayerZero For Market Expansion
Crypto-native projects use LayerZero mainly to bring assets into new markets. More than $40 billion in crypto-native assets, including L1 tokens, wrapped Bitcoin, and memecoins such as PENGU, CAT, and WIF, operate as OFTs.
Notably, teams use the protocol to reach trading venues, lending platforms, and new blockchain ecosystems. PENGU expanded from Solana to Abstract and later to Hyperliquid for spot and leveraged trading. Additionally, assets such as SEI, TRON, and APT used LayerZero when Pump.fun launched on Solana.
However, different projects select different verification settings. Teams can adjust Decentralized Verifier Networks (DVNs) and security thresholds based on their requirements. When Plasma launched its stablecoin chain, more than $15 billion moved through LayerZero into the network.
Token Issuers Add Security Rules Across Chains
Tokenized asset issuers use LayerZero to distribute stablecoins, tokenized treasuries, yield products, and equities across multiple networks. The protocol allows issuers to control security settings, including transaction approvals, supported chains, and contract ownership.
Tether’s USDT0 and XAUT0 expanded across more than 24 chains using LayerZero. Ethena also launched five assets across over 30 chains, including USDe, sUSDe, ENA, and USDtb, a tokenized fund created with BlackRock.

Meanwhile, Ondo connected its $500 million tokenized T-bill product across six chains. It also launched 150 tokenized equities across four chains, including Hyperliquid. Dinari and Theo use the same infrastructure for tokenized equities and gold.
Institutions Use LayerZero For Compliance Controls
Financial institutions use LayerZero to carry compliance rules across blockchain networks. A DVN can verify transaction data, provide attestations, and enforce requirements such as sanctions screening and jurisdiction checks.
PayPal adopted the OFT Standard for PYUSD in November 2024, with Paxos, Google Cloud, and LayerZero Labs involved as required signers. Fidelity’s Center for Applied Technology launched a DVN in February 2026 for Ondo’s USDY product.
Additionally, Worldpay and Global Payments launched a Payments DVN in March 2026. Deutsche Telekom operates an on-prem DVN focused on data sovereignty and GDPR compliance. Fireblocks later integrated LayerZero into its Tokenization Engine, supporting regulated asset issuance across 170-plus chains.
