vApp is a Rust-based development framework for applications to build on crypto rails with internet-grade performance. When implemented with a zkVM, benchmark results show consistently high performance: • Up to 832× fewer cycles than EVM interpreters • 95.7% reduction in proving cycles via precompiles • 30× throughput gain with GPU acceleration • 346MB → 1.5MB proof compression via recursion By @LayerZero_Core and @SuccinctLabs, the vApp framework is the optimal model for building applications that use blockchains at internet scale. Develop like web2, with the verifiability of web3.

In this episode of The People’s AI, presented by Vana, we sit down with Bryan Pellegrino, CEO and co-founder of LayerZero Labs, to explore one of the most ambitious projects in decentralized infrastructure today. From a background as a top-ranked poker player to pioneering AI models for professional baseball teams, Bryan brings a unique perspective to the convergence of AI and blockchain. We unpack what it really means to build decentralized AI, focusing on the role of AI agents, blockchain messaging infrastructure, and crypto payment rails. Bryan explains how LayerZero functions like a TCP/IP protocol for blockchain — enabling seamless cross-chain communication and asset transfers at near-zero cost. We also dive deep into critical issues such as: • Whether AI agents need their own wallets or share infrastructure with humans • The future of micro-payments in AI systems • The challenge of hallucination in AI versus irreversibility in blockchain transactions • The potential for user-owned data to power transparent and sovereign AI development LayerZero is already powering over $100B in asset flows across chains, and Bryan argues that AI-driven transactions may soon surpass human volume. If you’re interested in the architecture of decentralized intelligence, this episode offers an inside view. About Vana: Vana's vision is for user-owned AI through user owned-data. Its mission is to be the world's first open protocol for data sovereignty. https://linktr.ee/vanahq Vana on Twitter/X: https://x.com/vana Vana ecosystem: vana.com The People's AI on Twitter/X: https://x.com/The_Peoples_AI Subscribe to The People's AI on YouTube: / @the_peoples_ai Jeff Wilser on Twitter/X: https://x.com/jeffwilser

Explore V2 through the lens of LayerZero's core principles: Permissionlessness, Censorship Resistance, and Immutability.

We're On 🟠 Gelato for an episode with LayerZero founder Bryan Pellegrino hosted by Gelato founder Luis Schliesske 🎙️ The Omnichain Future is Here. LayerZero is the TCP/IP of Web3. Diving deep into LayerZero V2 release, the masterplan for cross-chain communication. A quick blink into bridging and the future of omni-chain interoperability. LayerZero V1 was great, but it came with two design flaws ↓ → Relayer outage could halt cross-chain tx's as a single point of failure → Complex security setup hinders adoption due to cumbersome UX LayerZero V2 tackled previous issues & leveled up with the added functionality ↓ → A verification module with Decentralized Verification Networks (DVNs) for customizable security models → Decoupling security & execution enabling permissionless execution → Optimized Gas efficiency for increased protocol flexibility ICYMI, Layer Zero v2 is on mainnet and Gelato supports with a dedicated Gelato DVN1 ↓ Gelato DVN1 provides a unified cross-chain messaging solution for Gelato RaaS users and beyond. Gelato DVN1 stands out with its decentralized validator consensus that removes single points of failure with 3/5 validators executing the transactions in parallel. Those NEW LayerZero features strengthen three core principles: Immutability, permissionlessness & censorship resistance.

Season 7 | Episode 4 In today's episode Mike and Hart are joined by Bryan Pellegrino, co-founder of LayerZero, to debate the the end state of the multi-chain future. They debate technical specifics like message passing protocols, bridging frameworks, censorship resistance, and security tradeoffs, as well as philosophies around infrastructure layers versus service providers, decentralization compromises, and application interoperability needs.

Bryan Pellegrino began playing online poker at 15, well below legal gambling age, using an account his dad set up for him. Over a dozen years, poker helped Pellegrino travel the world for tournaments and for fun. He accumulated more than $500,000 in World Series of Poker purses alone. He spent 10 hours a day, for years, clicking through a half-dozen hands at a time. He’d won a fortune in return. Feeling burnt out, Ryan left poker behind for entrepreneurship. Pellegrino is the Co-Founder & CEO at LayerZero Labs and has over 8 years of experience in the tech industry, with a focus on startups. Bryan has a proven track record of successful product development and growth hacking. In their previous company, OpenToken, they were responsible for the growth and development of the company's ecosystem. Bryan has also co-founded Rho AI and Coder Den.

Apart from the many instances where cryptocurrency holders get socially engineered (hoodwinked) into turning over their crypto or their account credentials to extremely clever and tenacious hackers (essentially, “user error”), the leading cause of cryptocurrency theft is a vulnerable cross-chain bridge. In fact, on the same day this interview with LayerZero Labs co-founder and CEO Bryan Pellegrino was recorded at the Harvard Blockchain Conference, the AllBridge cross-chain bridge was exploited for approximately $574,000. According to Pellegrino, approximately $4 billion has been stolen via cross-chain bridge exploits since late 2021. Pellegrino was at Harvard University’s annual blockchain conference to talk about what it takes to secure communications between chains—an area of particular interest to enterprises because, as enterprises are already learning, in the same way, that many businesses have to work with multiple fiat currencies, there’s a high likelihood that they’ll also have to deal with multiple cryptocurrencies which in turn means they’ll have to simultaneously deal with multiple public distributed ledgers. Secure inter-chain communication will be an absolute must. As opposed to relying on smart contracts to handle cross-chain bridge management at the so-called application layer of blockchain, Pellegrino’s company has been focused on handling cross-chain bridging at the protocol layer; a layer that, like the Internet’s TCP/IP protocol, lives below the blockchain layer itself. Thus, the company’s name, “LayerZero” (an implication that the lowest layer in the software stack where a blockchain exists is at layer 1, an idea that aligns with the way many different public distributed ledgers are described as “L1s”). While he was at Harvard’s Blockchain Conference, Pellegrino told BlockchainJournal.com editor-in-chief David Berlind that LayerZero has successfully secured over $7 billion, has over 35,000 applications running on its test net, with 3,500 apps now in production on the LayerZero main net. Said Pellegrino of LayerZero’s industrial strength, “You take a look at [which venture capitalists’] confidence have we [have] won; Sequoia, Andreessen, all these groups have made single bets in the space, and that bet has been on us.” Aside from operating at the protocol level, what’s LayerZero’s secret to success? Well for starters, all of the code behind LayerZero has been purpose-built from scratch. Beyond that, are three convictions that are sacrosanct to everything LayerZero does; immutability, permissionlessness, and resistance to censorship.

LayerZero is a new interoperability protocol that connects disparate blockchains. Interoperability hinges on passing messages between chains; current solutions achieve this with a middle-chain (hub-and-spoke model) such as Polkadot or running pairwise on-chain light nodes such as Cosmos IBC. The former solution centralizes security around a single hub, allowing for cheap transactions at the cost of a single point of failure. The latter achieves high security with on-chain validation but is both capital and resource-intensive. LayerZero brings the best of both worlds together with a novel on-chain "Ultra Light Node," which achieves the security of a light node with the cost-effectiveness of middle chains. LayerZero plans to support Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, Fantom, Arbitrum and Optimism at launch. It will add support for more EVM chains and non-EVM chains, such as Solana, Polkadot, Algorand, in the months following launch.

Day 4 of the 2013 World Series of Poker main event saw 666 players return to the Rio, but only 648 would make the money. By the end of the day's first level the bubble had burst, meaning that all remaining players are guaranteed at least a $19,106 payday and are in with a shot at the first-place prize of more than $8.3 million. Card Player TV caught up with one of the largest chip stacks in the room after the second break, Bryan Pellegrino, to learn how he vaulted up the leaderboard with a key hand against Tuan Le and how says he will play the WSOP main event, "every year, until I die, even if I'm not playing poker. It's just too great of a tournament."
