Apex Fusion announces the launch of NEXUS Chain integration with Layerzero. This enables connectivity to over 145 blockchain networks, including Solana and Ethereum compatible ecosystems.
Simplify omnichain development with Apex Fusion layer zero
With this partnership, Apex Fusion becomes the first ecosystem to integrate Cardano’s UTxO liquidity and Ethereum’s EVM framework via Layerzero, creating a new bridge between historically separate blockchain systems.
Developers can now deploy omnichain applications (OApps) and tokens (OFTs) on NEXUS while accessing the 60+ Layerzero connectivity ecosystem without custom bridge integrations. This reduces friction, expands access, and introduces native interoperability between EVM, Solana, and Cardano environments.
Christopher Greenwood, Chief Operating Officer of the Apex Fusion Foundation, called the integration a “pivotal moment” for both Cardano and the EVM community, noting that VECTOR now serves as the default route for Cardano tokens.
EEnterprises also gain access to configurable DVN-based security for regulated applications and unified liquidity across multiple blockchains, simplifying cross-chain operations.
A release shared with Bitcoin.com News states that liquidity will be expanded through the Stargate and OFT mechanisms, and future routes will further connect VECTOR and NEXUS to bring Cardano native assets into Layerzero.
The team believes this integration strengthens Apex Fusion’s mission to interconnect diverse blockchain protocols and accelerate the evolution of the Web3 ecosystem toward seamless interoperability.
