Built for now,
and the future

Build once and automatically work with newly supported chains

ZetaChain was built from the ground up to support all blockchains, natively. From chains without native smart contract capabilities to modern, composable chains, universal apps can handle them all.

Apps built on ZetaChain are prepared for future chains by default. As new chain support is added to ZetaChain, Universal Apps automatically gain access and support from day one integration.
