LayerZero

Our vision is to build a better internet. This is a bold mission that requires a significant amount of work, so we are looking for fearless individuals who are eager to contribute meaningfully towards this vision. If you are not willing to put in the work, then LayerZero is not the place for you.

Founded in 2021, LayerZero’s mission is to create a community of cross-chain developers building decentralized applications (dApps) that are no longer limited by individual blockchain capabilities. With LayerZero’s simple and generic messaging protocol, developers can build cross-chain applications that unify the benefits of different blockchains.

Focus on the idea, argument, or analysis you find most compelling. Please submit under the "Cover Letter" portion of the application.

We look forward to reviewing your application.
