Layerzero（ZRO）宣布向Andreessen Horowitz（A16Z）宣布5500萬美元的投資

風險投資公司Andreessen Horowitz（A16Z）宣布對LoyeZero進行了5500萬美元的投資，這是一家運行交叉鏈消息協議的Web3公司。

Venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, or a16z, has invested $55 million in LayerZero, a Web3 company that runs a crosschain messaging protocol, according to a recent X post by Ali Yahya, a general partner at the firm.

該公司普通合夥人Ali Yahya最近的X帖子稱，風險投資公司Andreessen Horowitz（A16Z）已向LoyeZero投資了5500萬美元，該公司運行了一個交叉鏈消息協議。

The investment was disclosed on April 17. A16z has previously invested in LayerZero, beginning with an initial investment in March 2022. The firm also participated in LayerZero’s Series B funding round in April 2023, although the companies have not disclosed the funding round's valuation.

這項投資於4月17日披露。 A16Z以前已經投資於LayerZero，從2022年3月的初始投資開始。該公司還參加了Loysere layerZero在2023年4月的B系列籌資回合，儘管這些公司尚未披露資金回合的估值。

However, reports at the time stated that the Canada-based LayerZero was valued at $3 billion during its Series B funding round, which saw participation from 33 investors. In addition to a16z, Circle Ventures, OKX Ventures, OpenSea Ventures, Sequoia Capital, and many others participated at the time.

但是，當時的報導說，總部位於加拿大的Loysero在其B系列籌資回合中的價值為30億美元，這使33名投資者參與。除了A16Z，Circle Ventures，OKX Ventures，Opensea Ventures，Sequoia Capital以及許多其他人當時也參加了比賽。

LayerZero reached a settlement with the FTX Estate in January 2025 over a long-running dispute stemming from allegations that the firm exploited the exchange’s liquidity crisis by “negotiating a fire-sale transaction,” according to the Estate. In June 2024, LayerZero launched its own token, LayerZero (ZRO).

據該莊園稱，列澤羅於2025年1月達成了與FTX莊園的和解協議，這是由於指控該公司通過“談判消防交易”來利用交易所的流動性危機的指控。 2024年6月，LayerZero啟動了自己的代幣LayerZero（ZRO）。

Crosschain protocols, chain-agnosticism gain traction

交叉鏈協議，鏈反應式增益牽引力

Crosschain messaging protocols allow programs to share information across ecosystems and can be a critical function for decentralized applications (DApps) or traders who want seamless swaps.

交叉鏈消息傳遞協議允許程序共享跨生態系統的信息，並且可以成為分散應用程序（DAPP）的關鍵功能或想要無縫掉期的交易者。

Some protocols competing in the same space as LayerZero include Wormhole, Stargate, Superbridge, Connext, and many others.

與layerzero在同一空間中競爭的一些協議包括蟲洞，星際之門，超級橋，連接等。

Wormhole may be one of the largest competitors to LayerZero, having raised $225 million at a $2.5 billion valuation in November 2023. Like LayerZero, Wormhole also hosted an airdrop for its token, Wormhole (W), although the airdrop attracted scammers and spoof tokens. Chainlink also has a crosschain interoperability protocol that allows for messaging between blockchains.

蟲洞可能是LoyesZero最大的競爭對手之一，在2023年11月籌集了2.25億美元，估值為25億美元。例如LoyeZero，蠕蟲孔還為其令牌，蠕蟲孔（W）舉辦了Airdrop，儘管Airdrop吸引了Scammers和Spoof tokens。 ChainLink還具有一個交叉鏈互操作性協議，該協議允許區塊鏈之間的消息傳遞。

More and more companies are realizing the value of being omnichain or at least chain-agnostic. Phantom, which at first was a Solana-centric wallet, now supports six major blockchains, including Bitcoin and Ethereum. Magic Eden, an NFT-infrastructure company, also started as Solana-centric but has launched marketplaces for multiple blockchains now.

越來越多的公司正在意識到是含量或至少是鍊式不可能的價值。起初是以索拉納為中心的錢包的幻影，現在支持六個主要區塊鏈，包括比特幣和以太坊。 NFT基礎設施公司Magic Eden也以Solana為中心，但現在已經為多個區塊鏈推出了市場。
