LayerZero introduces fees and buybacks amid token unlocks, testing its cross-chain revenue model soon

LayerZero, supported by Cathie Wood's ARK Invest, has started charging fees on cross-chain transfers and using excess revenue to buy back its ZRO tokens, linking usage to token demand. However, around September 19-20, 23.6 million ZRO tokens worth about $25 million are set to unlock, posing a supply challenge. This test will show if LayerZero's revenue and buyback strategy can offset token distribution amid competition from Chainlink's growing cross-chain presence. Investors are watching closely to see if LayerZero can maintain its market share and token value despite these pressures.
