Among the 5 billion assets migrating from LayerZero to CCIP, the migration of AI Agent infrastructure is the most noteworthy—Virtuals' $700 million choice indicates that institutional-grade security has become a hard requirement.

Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol CCIP attracted over $1.1 billion in token value transfers this week, with projects such as Virtuals Protocol, Pleasing Market, and Zest Protocol announcing integration. Reports indicate that this round of transfers continues the trend following the April attack on Kelp DAO's cross-chain bridge, with nearly $5 billion in assets having been moved out of LayerZero-related infrastructure. Among them, AI Agent platform Virtuals Protocol announced it will migrate over $700 million worth of VIRTUAL tokens from LayerZero to CCIP. (The Defiant)
