Kelp DAO abandoned LayerZero after the attack incident and switched to Chainlink's cross-chain infrastructure
Prefer us on Google
According to The Block, after experiencing a bridge attack of approximately $292 million last month, Kelp DAO decided to abandon LayerZero and instead adopt Chainlink's cross-chain infrastructure.
Kelp DAO will use the Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol, which requires 16 independent node operators to validate cross-chain transactions, becoming the first major protocol to leave LayerZero after the attack. During the attack, the LayerZero-driven OFT bridge used a 1-of-1 single validator configuration, with 47% of LayerZero applications using the same configuration at that time. LayerZero subsequently announced the cessation of single validator configurations.
Kelp DAO stated that migrating to Chainlink CCIP directly addresses the architectural vulnerabilities in the attack. rsETH will also adopt a cross-chain token standard. As part of the DeFi United rescue operation, LayerZero has donated and lent approximately 10,000 ETH to Aave.
