# Multichain Naming Interoperability With Clusters.xyz

A few weeks ago, if you needed to send value to an address, you’d need their complex, fragile wallet address or the name service address they spent an arm and a leg acquiring in a multi-chain ecosystem.

What if there was a service that’s layered on all these wallet addresses and name services such that once you had the human-recognizable address, you could send value to recipients regardless of the chain; well, that’s Clusters, and it’s built on **LayerZero**!

The Cross Chain Wallet Naming Hassle
------------------------------------

It’s safe to say that everyone in crypto was onboarded, including Vitalik, and we’ve all had a taste of the bitter-sweet perks of centralization, including memorable account addresses on the average of 5 accounts every centralized bank user has, [according to this article on CNET](https://www.notion.so/001-School-Studies-e19a51a04e034a29aa4c7f5e65c4c037?pvs=21).

Most blockchain addresses are long and seemingly unreadable to ensure security, uniqueness, and privacy through cryptographic processes. The complexity and length of guessing and forging for good measure at the expense of “user experience and memory retention.”

There are many solutions to this hassle, but they’re mostly single-blockchain based and hardly cater to the needs of the “multichainoors”

The solution to this issue must come from a project that’s interoperable with as many blockchains as there are, fancy and functional enough that other (existing and new) projects want to implement into their systems.

The first of its kind is Clusters! All chains for one, and One cluster for all.

What Is Clusters
----------------

Clusters is web3’s first cross-chain naming service that connects multiple wallets under one name (a cluster). It solves the fragmentation issue associated with using various wallets across numerous blockchains.

The reputable [Delegate](http://delegate.xyz) team developed Clusters, powered by LayerZero (an omnichain protocol that facilitates data and value sharing across blockchain networks) for multi-chain interoperability.

You can set up multiple clusters for different wallets and use cases as necessary and connect wallets across other chains to the cluster for a universal name that you can use seamlessly.

Cluster also employs a sophisticated demand-based pricing algorithm that frowns at stealing names while making it cheaper to register new names.

You can register and own clusters for up to 10 years. You can also bid for names and top up your bids. If your name gets outbid, Clusters will refund you the bid amount.

Registering a Cluster
---------------------

The delegate team has made registering a cluster and adding wallets to the cluster easy.

First, head on to the Clusters website at [Clusters.xyz](http://Clusters.xyz). Ensure that you’re at the correct URL before proceeding.

Next, click on “Create Bid” to create a bid to bid on a name:

Next, enter the name in the field and click on “Continue”:

Clusters bid page

Complete your bid by clicking “Bid on /”; connect your wallet to an EVM or Solana wallet and complete your transaction. After a successful bid, you can head to the “My Profile” page to view your clusters, edit wallets, bid on other names, top-up your bids, and do more with your cluster. my clusters profile page Conclusion You’ve learned about Clusters and how the project is advancing naming for the meta with LayerZero’s interoperable tech. Clusters soothe one of the UX pain points of payments and interaction within web3, which is why I’m rooting for the project.
