Interoperability
How Wild Goat Coin moves natively across chains while maintaining a single global supply.
Introduction
Wild Goat Coin is designed to function as a single currency across multiple blockchain ecosystems. Rather than relying on wrapped assets or liquidity-based bridges, WGC uses native interoperability infrastructure to maintain a unified supply across supported networks.
This approach prioritizes consistency, composability, and long-term sustainability, while providing a simple and efficient user experience for cross-chain transfers.
LayerZero OFT
WGC is built on the LayerZero Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) standard, enabling fast, permissionless, and low-cost transfers between supported networks.
LayerZero provides a decentralized messaging layer that allows assets to move across chains without custodial bridges or liquidity pools. In WGC’s implementation, transfers follow a native burn-and-mint model, where:
Tokens are burned on the source chain
Tokens are minted on the destination chain
The total circulating supply remains consistent across all networks
This design avoids wrapped token representations, eliminates fragmentation, and preserves full fungibility across chains.
WGC’s LayerZero cross-chain activity can be explored via LayerZero Scan.
Bridging Experience
WGC can be transferred between supported networks using interfaces such as Stargate and Superbridge. These applications abstract the underlying messaging layer and provide a simple, single-step user experience, with transfers typically completing in seconds between most chains.
Superchain ERC20
In addition to LayerZero-based interoperability, WGC includes native compatibility with Optimism’s Superchain ERC20 standard across supported Superchain networks.
While full Superchain-native interoperability has not yet been activated at the protocol level, WGC’s SuperchainEVM contract is already structured to support it once available. This positions WGC to integrate with future Superchain-native applications and cross-chain execution models without requiring further token migrations.
zkSync Elastic Network
WGC is deployed on zkSync Era and is designed to be compatible with zkSync’s Elastic Network model once native interoperability goes live.
Elastic Network interoperability differs from Superchain interop in that assets are identified using protocol-level asset identifiers rather than shared contract addresses. As a result, WGC does not require identical contract deployments across zkSync chains to support future interoperability.
