A ton of this is just completely untrue.
1) Kelp originally used the defaults which were MultiDVN or DeadDVN and manually migrated to a 1/1 config later
2) Almost 100% of the volume on a 1/1 config was rsETH
3) Not using a 1/1 for production applications is mentioned many times in the documentation.
The defaults Kelp is referencing in their screenshot were multiDVN or DeadDVN, which force-rejects an application using the defaults at all and requires them to manually set configuration.
rsETH was originally configured to use the default LayerZero configuration of a multiDVN setup of LayerZero Labs + Google:
Here are the exact transactions where that happens

Ethereum → Optimism:

KelpDAO then manually changed these to 1/1 configs:
For the original Feb 6 Ethereum routes to Arbitrum/Optimism, KelpDAO’s Ethereum contract switched from defaults to manual OApp-scoped config on 2024-04-01:
Send-side manual config:

Receive-side manual config:

2024-04-01 07:12:23 UTC
From this point on, Kelp began deploying all of their configurations as 1/1 configs. Here is Kelp’s deployment on Unichain:
Unichain → Ethereum was opened on 2025-04-01 18:55:41 UTC.
Pathway-open / setPeer tx:

The manual ULN config followed 6 seconds later in https://t.co/0di0j78zYc.
During this time the Unichain -> Ethereum and Ethereum -> Unichain defaults were set to DeadDVN which is a contract which makes it impossible for any application to transact without manually configuring their DVNs, this was not possible on the defaults of this pathway.
Here is the code in the DeadDVN (https://t.co/mAge3W6NhP) that specifically prohibits this.

This is called out many many times in the docs:

If these resolve to defaults, confirm whether the defaults are valid for the intended pathway. Unintentional fallbacks to defaults are a common cause of blocked or failing pathways."

▎ Should I use multiple DVNs?
▎ Recommended for production. Multiple DVNs provide:
▎ - Increased security (multiple independent verifiers)
▎ - Resilience (no single point of failure)
▎ - Trust minimization

Here are the exact recommendations we gave KelpDAO when asked about DVNs (typically 2/3)

@YolandaDS1229@DisrespectedThe Hi Yolanda, it’s hard to find the actual fruit here in California. Trying to find some for my dad who’s sick. How did you eat it and how much? Or did you drink the soursop leaves in a tea. Thank you .
@WretchedJalopy Can I DM you tomorrow. I think I tried DM earlier today but not sure if I did it correctly. I will reach out tomorrow morning ok. Thanks again and thank you for given us hope.
Yes my dad. State 4. I was in the process of getting all my dad’s medical records to send to DR Makins. We exchanged emails with his office and they asked me for his records. When I finally got them and tried sending them to him. I received an email saying he can no longer help me because of Canadas new law. I was devastated.
@WretchedJalopy Hi Jalopy, so happy to hear your story. Without Dr Makins being able to help any one right now due to him being blocked. Do you have any suggestions or recommendations on where we can go for the protocols that helped you. Thank you again 🙏
McDonald’s Price Increases from 2019 to 2024:
Medium French Fry $1.79 -> $4.19
McChicken $1.29 -> $3.89
Big Mac $3.99 -> $7.49
10 McNuggets $4.49 -> $7.58
Cheeseburger $1.00 -> $3.15
Some of this is over a 200% increase in price. This isn’t inflation — it’s legalized robbery.
