- LayerZero’s native token ZRO saw a sharp price surge, ranking among the top gainers on November 7, 2025.
- ZRO’s rally was boosted by a $10 million token purchase by LayerZero Labs.
- The price climbed to a daily high of $1.87 and could be poised for further upside.
The native LayerZero token ZRO has emerged as one of the day’s strongest performers, posting double-digit gains amid volatile crypto market conditions.
The token drew notable attention after a strategic move by LayerZero Labs aimed at strengthening the project’s treasury and boosting market confidence.
After spiking to a high of $1.87, ZRO later eased to around $1.66 at the time of writing. The question now is whether this marks the start of a larger rally.
ZRO price jumps after $10 million LayerZero Labs buy
On November 7, LayerZero Labs — the team behind the LayerZero protocol — announced a decisive market action.
The company disclosed it executed a $10 million open-market purchase of ZRO for its balance sheet, adding the acquired tokens to corporate reserves.

“We at LayerZero Labs believe ZRO is one of the most mispriced assets in the world,” the announcement stated, highlighting the protocol’s role in enabling what it calls a generational shift in financial infrastructure through permissionless, global-scale connectivity.
Earlier in the week, ZRO had fallen to multi-month lows near $1.28 amid broader crypto market weakness and a token unlock on October 20 that released 25.71 million ZRO into circulation.
On November 7 the token staged a strong rebound, rising from a low of $1.43 to $1.87.
Trading volumes surged sharply as well, with over $142 million changing hands across major platforms during a roughly 190% spike in activity.
The late-October unlock initially weighed on the price, triggering a consolidation phase that gave way to a rapid bounce as bearish pressure eased.
If ZRO can hold key support between roughly $1.66 and $1.52, the recent uptrend could target $2.00 or higher.
About LayerZero
LayerZero’s proactive buyback signals internal confidence, counters dilution narratives, and aims to restore trust among token holders.
The protocol connects more than 50 blockchains, including Ethereum, BNB Chain, Avalanche and non-EVM networks such as Aptos.
That cross-chain infrastructure enables seamless omnichain applications for DeFi projects like Stargate Finance and Radiant Capital.
By reducing circulating supply and positioning ZRO as the basis for governance rewards and staking, the buyback seeks to incentivize longer-term participation.
Such moves can also trigger further accumulation by large holders, and competition for treasury strategies in crypto projects may intensify for ZRO.
ZRO price today
ZRO has maintained an upward trajectory while trading around $1.66 after retreating from intraday highs.
The token rose more than 13% over the prior 24 hours at the time of writing, lifting its weekly gain to roughly 8% and narrowing monthly losses to about 31%.
Although still in the red on longer timeframes, ZRO remains above a major descending trendline.
Recent action places the token above new support near $1.60, with daily swings between roughly $1.64 and $1.87.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) sits near 57 after moving back from overbought levels.
Meanwhile, the moving average convergence indicator is showing bullish support with a bullish crossover, reinforcing the current upside momentum.
