LayerZero Labs has announced the expansion of applications built on the BNB Chain to now include OpBNB. While new applications won't require significant adjustments, existing ones integrated with the BNB Chain will need to broaden their scope following this announcement.

OpBNB, a layer-2 solution compatible with EVM and residing in the BNB Chain ecosystem, offers developers seeking expansion the opportunity to explore over 40 chains through LayerZero endpoints. Projects already integrated with LayerZero can unlock additional functionality within their applications.

The community has responded positively to this development, with many praising it as a significant milestone for LayerZero.

Interestingly, the impact on the trading value of the native token, BNB, remains to be seen. BNB currently trades around $205.65, experiencing a slight slip of 0.43% in the last 24 hours. While the year-to-date value has seen a decrease, developers anticipate an increase in activities and deployment of innovative projects over time.

BNB Chain is hosting a two-month event called the BNB Chain Airdrop Marathon, offering numerous airdrop opportunities to users and developers. With a new airdrop event each Tuesday for a week, the marathon started on October 10, 2023, and will conclude on December 10, 2023.

LayerZero Labs continues its active integration development, recently partnering with Prime Protocol to enhance cross-chain functionality without limitations.

This collaboration, along with the ongoing BNB Chain Airdrop Marathon and integration with key industry players, signifies a step forward in achieving the mission of boosting cross-chain applications for both new and existing projects. Supported chains by LayerZero include Ethereum, Avalanche, Aptos, Polygon, and Arbitrum, among others.
