Introducing the Interoperability Dashboard
Cross-chain interoperability has become one of the most important layers of crypto infrastructure.
Every day, billions of dollars move between chains through bridges, messaging protocols, token standards, and interoperability networks. Yet despite its growing importance, understanding how value moves across ecosystems remains surprisingly difficult.
Today, in collaboration with LayerZero, we're launching the Interoperability Dashboard: a public resource for tracking cross-chain activity across the leading interoperability protocols.
What the Dashboard Tracks
The dashboard brings together key metrics across the interoperability landscape, including:
- Cross-chain volume
- Messages sent
- User activity
- Market share
- Chain-to-chain value flows
- Ecosystem adoption
- Token standard adoption
The goal is simple: provide a clearer view of how users, applications, and capital move across chains.
Understanding GMP Protocols
One of the primary focuses of the dashboard is General Message Passing (GMP) protocols.
Unlike traditional bridges that focus solely on moving assets, GMP protocols enable arbitrary messages, contract calls, and application state to move between chains.
This capability powers a growing category of omnichain applications, allowing developers to build experiences that span multiple ecosystems rather than being confined to a single blockchain.
The dashboard tracks activity across leading GMP protocols including LayerZero, Chainlink, Hyperlane, Socket, Axelar, and Wormhole.
Why CCTP Is Tracked Separately
Interoperability is not a single category.
For example, Circle's Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) serves a different purpose than GMP protocols.
While GMP protocols facilitate arbitrary cross-chain communication, CCTP is a first-party interoperability solution designed specifically for native USDC transfers.
Both play an important role in the ecosystem, but they answer different questions about how value and data move across chains.
To provide a more accurate picture of the market, the dashboard tracks them separately.
Early Insights
Looking at GMP activity over the last 30 days:
- $7.9B in volume
- 81,648 unique wallets
- LayerZero accounted for 85.7% of tracked GMP volume
The dashboard also reveals where liquidity originates, where it flows, and which ecosystems capture the largest share of cross-chain activity.
Explore the Dashboard
As interoperability continues to mature, we believe better visibility into cross-chain activity will become increasingly important for builders, investors, researchers, and institutions alike.
