LayerZero said it is gradually ending offchain support for 13 lower-activity blockchains, a move that affects Aurora, Taiko, Japan Open Chain, LightLink, Viction, Animechain, XPLA, Merlin, Gnosis, Zora, Otherworld Space, XAI, and opBNB. According to the company’s notice, those networks will no longer be able to use LayerZero’s Decentralized Verifier Network (DVN) and Executor services once the change takes effect. The decision will also cause Stargate Hydra to stop supporting some of the affected chains. LayerZero urged users to redeem Hydra-related assets on those networks, including USDC.e, wETH, and Hydra USDT. The company added that the exact list of affected networks and the effective dates should be confirmed through its official announcement.
