Why LAYER
Redefining what you can achieve with Actively Validated Services (AVSs)
[ 01 ]
Maintain sovereignty
Build your way, without compromise. Leverage 'Ethereum's foundational security while retaining complete control and customization over your blockspace
[ 02 ]
Simplify development
Easily build, deploy and manage full stack, decentralized applications with WASM, using Containerized AVSs (CAVSs) to minimize dependency risk and bring verification and distribution completely on-chain
[ 03 ]
Build the impossible
LAYER is changing the limits of what we can achieve, giving visionary developers the opportunity to create completely new apps and experiences
Empowered by visionary investors, driving the next evolution of the Decentralized Web
How LAYER will
revolutionize:
[ 01 ]
ZK
Leverage great Rust ZK tooling to verify and generate complicated ZKPs within Wasm, and create ZK verifiers, ZK Prover Marketplaces and ZK aggregation layers
[ 02 ]
AI
Establish your own, precise parameters and run fully decentralized, verifiable AI agents that can function independently, interact with diverse environments, and scale efficiently
[ 03 ]
Oracles
Create specialized yet affordable Oracles in Wasm, bridging the on and offchain worlds without breaking the bank
[ 04 ]
DAOs
Run your own verifiable services and enjoy new levels of cross-collaboration, readily sharing risk, reward and governance between each other
[ 05 ]
DeFi
Build the next generation of DeFi protocols with decentralized AI agents, trading bots, and prediction markets
[ 06 ]
UX
Craft novel experiences that are as intuitive as they are exciting. Remove user frictions with improved interoperability, decentralized frontends and easy chain abstraction
