LayerZero Labs
LayerZero wants blockchains to behave less like rival islands and more like one programmable network. Its bet is that the winning bridge will not feel like a bridge at all - but its configurable security model makes the builder part of the defense.
WalletConnect
The QR-code protocol that taught crypto wallets to talk is becoming a payment rail for stores, apps and AI agents. Its advantage is not a new wallet - it is the network already hiding behind hundreds of them.
Particle Network
Particle Network is a Singapore-based Web3 infrastructure company building chain abstraction technology so users can interact with any decentralized application on any blockchain from a single account and balance - no bridging or network switching required. Founded in 2022 as a wallet-abstraction provider, it evolved into a modular Layer-1 blockchain that coordinates transactions across chains through its flagship Universal Accounts, Universal Liquidity and Universal Gas products. Its stack has been integrated by hundreds of dApps, helped secure billions in user assets, and reached millions of users; its native PARTI token launched in March 2025.
