Cross-chain Protocols

Several well-known general-purpose cross-chain protocols already support Bitlayer, including Chainlink CCIP and LayerZero.

Chainlink CCIP is a blockchain interoperability protocol that enables developers to build secure applications that can transfer tokens, messages (data), or both tokens and messages across chains. For more infomation, refer to docs of ccip.

Getting Started

There are a couple of resources to get you started building cross-chain applications with CCIP:

LayerZero

LayerZero delivers secure omnichain interoperability for Web3. It consists of an Oracle actor and a Relayer actor that work separately to provide secure messages from one chain to another. LayerZero's infrastructure enables dApp users to interact with any asset or application, on any connected chain, with one click.
