Apple announces partnership with ZetaChain for the upcoming iPhone 17, integrating the Universal Blockchain directly into the device.​

The collaboration will allow iPhone 17 users to:

  • Access multiple blockchain networks from a single interface
  • Interact with Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and other chains natively
  • Use Universal Apps without switching between different blockchain ecosystems

ZetaChain's Universal Blockchain enables cross-chain functionality without bridges or wrappers, making it possible for one application to work across all supported networks.​

This marks a significant step toward mainstream blockchain adoption, bringing decentralized applications directly to millions of iPhone users through native integration.​

The partnership builds on ZetaChain's recent growth as the fastest-growing L1 blockchain and its expanding ecosystem of Universal Apps.​
