Anubis Explains OFT: Standardizing Cross-Chain Asset Connectivity
On the evening of November 8, Anubis Chain introduced LayerZero’s OFT standard and discussed how standardized cross-chain token mechanisms can reduce fragmentation and integration complexity caused by multiple bridged asset versions. According to LayerZero documentation, OFT uses cross-chain messages to coordinate token deductions on the source chain and corresponding credits on the destination chain, with consistent cross-chain supply as a design requirement. Different implementations can use various combinations of burning, locking, minting, or unlocking; there is no single fixed model. Technical documentation. For developers, this approach focuses on how assets connect across multiple chains according to unified rules, rather than simply adding another transfer route. Anubis also envisioned applications such as RWA, StockFi, and cross-chain settlement in its original post.
