LayerZero Description
LayerZero is an Omnichain Interoperability Protocol that allows lightweight message passing across multiple chains. LayerZero guarantees authentic, guaranteed message delivery with configurable distrustlessness. The protocol is implemented using a series of smart contracts that are non-upgradable and gas-efficient. The message is routed to the endpoint on chain A when a UA sends a message between chains A and B. The message is then sent to the endpoint on chain A. The block header is forwarded by the Oracle to the endpoint on chain A, and the Relayer submits the transaction proof. The message is sent to the destination address after the proof has been validated on the destination chains.

Across Protocol
A new paradigm for cross-chain experiences that seamlessly connects users with applications.
End-users can benefit from the fastest and lowest-cost bridging. Developers can benefit from a streamlined interoperability.
Cross-chain Intents are a limit order and an action to be executed. Intents replace explicit steps with user outcomes. This allows relayers to compete for the best execution path. Unlike complex trusted messaging solutions, Across connects users with dapps through intents and not just blockchains to other blockchains. Developers need only embed a standard action in protocol actions to create seamless experiences across chains.

Polyhedra
Bring interoperability and scale with cutting-edge Zero-Knowledge Proof Systems. zkBridge utilizes zkSNARKs in order to allow a prover convince the receiver chain of a state transition that occurred on the sender's chain. zkBridge is composed of a blockhead relay network and an updating contract. The block header relay networks retrieves block headers from sender chains, generates proofs for the validity of block headers and sends them along with the proofs (set up on receiver chains) to the updater contracts. The updater contract keeps a light client state. It adds block headers to the sender's chain automatically once the associated proofs have been verified and updates the main chain of the senter's chain. Polyhedra Network implements infrastructures to ensure interoperability between heterogeneous systems, while ensuring strong security without additional trust assumptions.

Wire Network
Wire offers a large developer community, easy registration, and resources allocated for business workflows. Wire provides bridgeless interoperability across chains. Up to 112,000 transactions a second with block times of 500 milliseconds. The network is expanding based on the growth of users, and there is room for internet. Wire is an open-source chain with public governance. Wire Network uses an innovative Appointed Proof of Stake model (APoS), which is an evolution from Delegated Proof of Stake. It also incorporates the Universal Polymorphic Address Protocol, which when paired up with name service smart contract on each layer-1 chain can enhance interoperability between different blockchains similar to how HTTP standardized Internet communication. Wire Network is a paradigm shift for blockchain technology. It offers partition-resistant networking, distributed storage, and serverless computing within a trustless computing system.

Nomad
Nomad is a security-first, cross-chain messaging protocol. It leverages an optimistic mechanism and only one honest actor is required to keep the whole system safe. Nomad makes it possible for off-chain watchers, such as validators or custodians, to challenge messages using fraud proofs. Nomad allows for a 10x reduction in gas fees compared to traditional header relay systems while remaining decentralized. Nomad smart contracts can quickly be deployed on any smart contract chain, without the need for any custom logic. Nomad's generalized message-passing channels allow developers to pass arbitrary data among chains and invoke smart contract functions within chains.
