LayerZero Executor product
Overview
LayerZero's V2 omnichain messaging protocol introduces a permissionless role called the Executor, which handles message execution. In this architecture, message verification is carried out by Decentralized Verifier Networks (DVNs), while the Executor is tasked solely with execution. The Executor performs two key functions: it calls lzReceive on the LayerZero Endpoint of the destination chain to enable the receiving application to process the message, and it provides gas abstraction, allowing users to pay for both the source-chain emission and the destination-chain delivery using the source chain's gas token. Applications may select an Executor or operate their own, and Executors receive a fee for each delivery.

Questions on the record
What is gas abstraction in this context?
The Executor enables a user to pay destination-chain execution gas with the source chain's native token, eliminating the need for the sender to hold gas on every destination chain.
