Hart Lambur, founder of Across Protocol, once again posted about LayerZero.
Lambur said that his remarks over the past few days are not an attack on LayerZero, but simply an attempt to have the right discussion about the state of security. Judging by LayerZero's current default configuration, the project is not satisfactory in terms of decentralization. LayerZero runs its own relayers on its own servers, the code is closed-source, and its oracle is Google-based by default, which is a completely centralized service and is also closed-source.
Lambur continued, "My view is that LayerZero's practice of decentralizing its system to users is both dangerous and unethical, because that's not the case. Any wstETH that bridges to a chain such as BNB via LayerZero's OFT standard simply shuts down one of the two computers running (repeater, Google oracle) and becomes a brick, which is not allowed. ”
Lambur concluded, "I want developers considering LayerZero to ask these important questions, and I want LayerZero to have an open, transparent conversation about their design choices." ”
