ZetaChain
ZetaChain is a Cosmos-built Layer 1 with omnichain smart contracts that read and write across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and other connected networks without bridges.

What is ZetaChain?
ZetaChain is a Proof-of-Stake Layer 1 chain on Cosmos SDK and Tendermint where Universal Apps can hold state and call contracts on any connected blockchain. Validators, observers, and signers use threshold signature schemes to settle transactions on remote chains, so users move BTC, ETH, SOL, and other native assets without wrapped tokens.
