XDC Network is Now Omnichain with LayerZero’s OFT Standard

We’re excited to share that the XDC token is now live as an Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) via LayerZero, enabling seamless movement of assets across multiple blockchains without the need for wrapping or intermediaries.

Here’s how it works: tokens are locked or burned on the source chain, a message is securely sent via LayerZero, and the same number of tokens are minted or unlocked on the destination chain. The result? A single, unified token supply across all supported networks.

This integration opens up powerful new possibilities for developers and enterprises to build interoperable applications with greater trust, faster execution, and simplified cross-chain communication.

We invite builders in the Real World Asset (RWA), DeFi, tokenization, and payment infrastructure to leverage XDC’s interoperable architecture to scale globally and build cross-chain solutions.

XDC Network is now integrated with Stargate’s Hydra network!

This milestone connects XDC to a unified, composable liquidity layer spanning over 50+ blockchains — opening seamless, low-cost, and scalable interoperability across the Web3 ecosystem.

As a hybrid Layer 1 built for trade finance, cross-border payments, and tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), XDC is designed to serve enterprise-grade and regulated environments.

This integration brings:
✅ Omnichain liquidity access
✅ Scalable DeFi interoperability
✅ Expanded composability for institutional use cases
