Illuminate LayerZero Growth: Understand User Behavior Across the Expanding Ecosystem
Making Sense of User Behavior in a Cross-Chain World
LayerZero has emerged as a powerful protocol enabling seamless cross-chain messaging. Its rapid integration across blockchains like Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, and BNB Chain signals a major shift in how decentralized apps communicate across ecosystems.
But with growth comes complexity.
As LayerZero adoption accelerates, many teams face a growing challenge:
How do you understand real user behavior across such a fragmented and multi-chain environment?
Teams often struggle with:
Siloed user data
Activity is scattered across networks, making it hard to build a unified view of how users interact with LayerZero-powered applications.
Unclear transfer patterns
Native token transfers (e.g., ETH, BNB, AVAX) and ERC-20 transfers (e.g., USDC, STG) behave differently — but they’re often grouped together, hiding valuable behavioral signals.
Identifying growth hotspots
With so many networks in play, it’s not always obvious which ones are driving real traction, engagement, and value.
Our Approach: Deep On-Chain Analysis Across LayerZero Networks
Lampros Tech provides custom Web3 analytics as a service — helping teams make sense of user behavior across complex blockchain ecosystems.
To address these challenges, we conducted a deep dive into the LayerZero ecosystem using on-chain data across 10+ integrated networks, including: Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Ethereum, Base, Avalanche, BNB Chain, Fantom, Celo, and Gnosis.
Our team analyzed transaction patterns and user activity from March 2022 to April 2025, offering a detailed view of:
User growth over time
Native vs ERC-20 transfer trends
High-engagement networks
Shifts in user behavior across chains
Key Insights Uncovered
Through this multi-chain analysis, we surfaced several powerful takeaways:
6 Million+ unique users
have interacted with LayerZero across supported chains
Top four networks for engagement
3.48M users
Arbitrum
2.86M users
Optimism
2.83M users
Polygon
2.70M users
BNB Chain
Behavioral shift in asset transfers
Early usage was dominated by ERC-20 token transfers (stablecoins, protocol tokens)
Since mid-2022, native token bridging has become the dominant mode, indicating a growing user preference for simpler, direct transfers
Usage breakdown by transfer type
14M+
unique users engaged in native token transfers
11.6M+
unique users used ERC-20 token transfers
These insights are essential for any team building on LayerZero or evaluating cross-chain infrastructure.
They point to where users are most active, how they prefer to move assets, and how those preferences are evolving.
Why It Matters:
Strategy Backed by Data
Whether you’re planning a new integration or scaling an existing dApp, knowing how users behave in the LayerZero ecosystem gives you an edge.
Working with Lampros Tech means you gain:
A data-backed understanding of where and how to prioritize network integrations
Visibility into actual transfer behavior — not just volume stats
Customized reports, queries, and dashboards built for your product and business goals
A research partner who delivers insights, not just data dumps.
