Permission Partners with LayerZero to Take $ASK Across Chains

 $ASK Expands Cross-Chain Access with LayerZero Integration

We’re excited to announce that ASK, the reward token for permission-based data sharing, has integrated with LayerZero, the leading cross-chain interoperability protocol.

This transition marks a major milestone in ASK’s evolution. LayerZero integration allows ASK to move seamlessly across blockchains—unlocking wider accessibility, deeper liquidity, and a foundation for long-term scalability.

By leveraging LayerZero’s infrastructure, ASK can now move between supported chains without requiring asset swaps or re-minting, making it easier than ever for users to access, trade, and use ASK.

Our vision is to make ASK the standard token for data ownership—empowering individuals to permission their data and be compensated every time it’s shared. Interoperability is central to that mission.

LayerZero makes ASK truly omnichain, ensuring it can live wherever users and advertisers are.

Why LayerZero Matters for ASK

By integrating LayerZero, ASK now benefits from:

  • Omnichain Interoperability: ASK can now move natively across multiple blockchain ecosystems—expanding reach, composability, and user access without the need for wrapping or swapping. This means users can bridge their ASK tokens between supported networks while maintaining liquidity and usability across different platforms.

  • Future-Proof Infrastructure: LayerZero’s lightweight messaging and decentralized security model enable ASK to scale into new networks and use cases with minimal friction.
  • Enhanced Liquidity and Ecosystem Access: ASK can tap into broader DeFi liquidity pools across supported chains, increasing availability for users and partners.
  • Trust and Transparency by Design: Every permission and reward is immutably recorded on-chain—creating an auditable trail and future-proofing data ownership and compliance in an increasingly regulated world..

What This Means for Users

ASK holders now enjoy a seamless and scalable experience:

  • Expanded access to ASK across LayerZero-supported chains
  • Continued support for ASK on Polygon, where ASK was originally launched
  • Low-fee, fast transactions on Base
  • Cross-chain flexibility to move ASK where it’s most useful
  • Transparency through on-chain tracking of every permission and reward
  • Compatibility with leading wallets and dApps, including Coinbase Wallet and Stargate
  • Participate in upcoming campaigns, rewards, and staking opportunities powered by the expanded network.

Whether users first earned ASK on Polygon or are just getting started on Base, they now have more flexibility than ever to hold, move, and use ASK across a growing ecosystem.

Base + LayerZero: Scaling Permission-Based Innovation

ASK's LayerZero deployment builds on its initial launch on Base, Coinbase’s Layer 2 network. Base's fast, low-cost environment will continue to serve as the foundation for new liquidity, utility, and adoption opportunities—now with LayerZero-powered cross-chain capabilities.

As a key part of its growth strategy, ASK remains committed to building on Base—a chain that has rapidly become a hub for on-chain adoption:

  • 8M+ total users onboarded
  • 2.5M+ daily transactions
  • $1.6B+ in total value locked (TVL)

LayerZero supercharges this foundation, enabling ASK to become a truly omnichain rewards asset—powering trusted, transparent, and user-centric data exchange.

How to Access ASK on Base:

The official ASK smart contract on Base: 0xBB146326778227A8498b105a18f84E0987A684b4 View on BaseScan

An ASK liquidity pool has been deployed on Aerodrome, Base’s leading decentralized exchange. To access the USDC-ASK pool, connect to Aerodrome’s DeFi exchange on the Base network via your Coinbase Wallet. 

IMPORTANT: Be sure to confirm you are using the correct ASK token contract address: 0xBB146326778227A8498b105a18f84E0987A684b4

Once connected, you can easily buy, sell and trade your ASK.

Notice to holders of ASK on Base Prior to Layer-Zero Integration

We understand that certain users may have initially bridged their ASK tokens to Base via Wormhole or may have participated in the prior liquidity pool on Aerodrome. As part of our migration to Layer-Zero, prior pool and associated token contract will be deprecated and liquidity will be accessible via the new pool

To ensure a smooth transition to LayerZero, we are offering dedicated support to help users move their ASK tokens to the new liquidity pool efficiently.

  • Step 1: Visit our official bridging support page.
  • Step 2: Follow the guided steps to securely transition your ASK holdings from Wormhole to LayerZero.
  • Step 3: If you encounter any issues, our support team is available to assist at support@permission.io.

For personalized assistance, please reach out to our customer support team via our official Telegram, Discord, or email support channels. We are committed to making this transition as seamless as possible for all ASK holders.

Coming Soon

In the coming weeks and months, expect:

  • Exciting campaigns and reward incentives
  • New liquidity pools and staking opportunities
  • Enhanced cross-chain features powered by LayerZero
