ZetaChain Adds Support for Avalanche (3).png

TL;DR Avalanche is now live on ZetaChain! Use Avalanche in ZetaHub — your portal to the Universal Blockchain. Build Universal Apps that natively span Avalanche, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and more from a single contract.

At ZetaChain, our mission is to build a Universal Blockchain with native access to any blockchain, making crypto as accessible, diverse, and connected as the internet. With Universal Apps, developers can build once and launch everywhere. Today, we’re excited to announce full mainnet support for Avalanche, bringing its fast, scalable ecosystem into ZetaChain’s world of seamless, native cross-chain connectivity.

Avalanche Joins the Universal Blockchain

Over 1.4 million active Avalanche users can now access Universal Apps — single smart contracts on ZetaChain that interact natively with any chain, including BTC, ETH, SOL, and more. Users can also tap into Avalanche’s native dApp ecosystem right from their preferred wallet without switching networks.

Check out our latest Universal Chain support roadmap to see what’s coming next.

Why Avalanche?

Avalanche is a fast and highly scalable EVM Layer 1 thanks to its unique consensus mechanism. ZetaChain brings AVAX and Avalanche-based tokens into a unified cross-chain experience (Gateway). For the first time, you can build dApps that span Avalanche and major chain ecosystems like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana — all from a single smart contract.

By connecting Avalanche to the ZetaChain ecosystem, we future-proof your apps: whether Avalanche develops new architectures, novel DeFi projects, or new token standards, ZetaChain can incorporate them without requiring each dApp to rebuild bridging logic from scratch.

A Real Example: Beam DEX Enables Native AVAX-BTC Swaps

Developers are already building Universal Apps that make the most of Avalanche’s ZetaChain integration. For example, Beam DEX is a new app that enables native AVAX to BTC swaps using ZetaChain's Universal EVM — no bridges, no wrapping, no network switching.

This is just the beginning: with ZetaChain, AVAX users can interact with native Bitcoin liquidity directly, while Bitcoin holders can access Avalanche-based DeFi without ever leaving their preferred Bitcoin wallet.
