Libre Integrates LayerZero to Bring Institutional Tokenized Funds to 120+ Blockchains

Libre Staff

Singapore, Abu Dhabi, London, April 03, 2025 – Libre, the world’s first fully on-chain infrastructure for regulated real-world assets (RWA), announces its integration with LayerZero, the leading interop protocol. This collaboration will enable institutional funds issued through Libre to exist anywhere across the 120+ blockchains LayerZero supports, including Ethereum, Solana, and Aptos and many more.

With LayerZero interop and its Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) Standard, which expands the ERC20 Standard to 120+ chains, Libre ensures that its tokenized assets, currently available to institutional and accredited investors only, maintain a single, unified supply across all connected chains. This integration enhances cross-chain liquidity, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency, bringing real-world assets (RWAs) fully on-chain with seamless interoperability.

Enabling the Next Evolution of Tokenized Finance

This development comes at a time when institutional capital is rapidly entering the digital asset space. Libre’s collaboration with LayerZero ensures institutions can deploy, transfer, and manage assets securely and efficiently across all major blockchains, eliminating historical liquidity and interoperability barriers.

“The integration of LayerZero’s infrastructure is a pivotal step in our mission to bring institutional assets fully on-chain,” said Dr. Avtar Sehra, Co-Founder & CEO of Libre Capital. “By leveraging LayerZero’s messaging capabilities and OFT standard, we are ensuring that institutional capital can move across chains seamlessly, securely, and in full compliance with regulatory standards.”

A Fully Interconnected Blockchain Future

LayerZero has facilitated over 140 million cross-chain messages and $65 billion in transaction volume without security incidents, making it the most trusted interoperability provider in the market. Institutions using Libre will now benefit from LayerZero’s ability to move any amount of value cross-chain with no slippage and at gas-only costs.

“Libre is how institutions engage with tokenized assets. LayerZero is excited to provide the  infrastructure to make it possible for institutions to use every type of blockspace imaginable,” said Bryan Pellegrino, Co-Founder & CEO of LayerZero. “With this integration, we are ensuring that institutional capital isn’t just coming on chain—it’s available across all chains.”

Advancing Institutional Tokenization

The integration will roll out in phases, starting with Libre adopting LayerZero’s messaging and OFT Standard for fund issuance and cross-chain asset movement. Future developments include the deployment of a LayerZero Endpoint on the Libre AppChain, further enhancing security, scalability, and interoperability.

With this integration, Libre becomes the first institutional RWA issuer available across all chains, and LayerZero strengthens its position as the leading interoperability provider powering institutional-grade digital assets.
