ETH DVN and actuator services will be deprecated
Cross-chain interoperability protocol LayerZero is withdrawing off-chain support from 15 low-activity chains as an operational cleanup that will take effect within the next 30 days.
LayerZero is phasing out offline support for these low-activity chains, which means that affected networks will no longer provide its DVN and executor services.
The affected chains mentioned in the announcement include EDU Chain, Meter, Shimmer, Cyber, Silicon, Sophon, Bitlayer, Degen, Arbitrum Nova and Cronos zkEVM.
DVN (Decentralized Verification Network) and actuators are jointly responsible for off-chain communication between different chains and will be deprecated on the affected network. The DVN is responsible for validating cross-chain messages, while the executor submits approved messages to the contract on the target chain.
This decision involves offline support for LayerZero Labs, not the closure of LayerZero's immutable endpoint contracts. In other words, the core protocol itself remains unchanged, but operators that rely on LayerZero Labs 'own infrastructure along these chains will lose these routes after the transition is complete.
Stargate users need to take action before deadline
This abandonment has also had a direct impact on Stargate users. The Stargate v2 agreement will no longer support affected chains and will take effect from the respective effective dates. Stargate users should redeem their assets (USDC.e, wETH, USDT) from these chains as soon as possible, as failure to take action before chain support is completely decommissioned will render funds inaccessible.
LayerZero recommends moving funds to more liquid chains such as Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base or BSC.
Applications that rely on LayerZero Labs services will lose these routes unless their operators adopt alternative infrastructure or migrate their deployments.
The move is more like a routine cleanup rather than a retreat from the core of the agreement, as the affected chains already have very small trading volumes. Still, anyone holding assets on the listed networks should consider this 30-day window a matter of urgency.
Once these services stop running on the affected chain, users may no longer have a feasible route to destroy Hydra representative tokens and recover assets supported by the pool.
