ZetaChain Introduces Developer Tutorials for Omnichain Smart Contracts
ZetaChain has released new developer tutorials for creating omnichain smart contracts that enable the swapping of tokens between different blockchains. This development comes after ZetaChain announced its support for NFTs and digital asset trading within Bitcoin wallets. The protocol will soon support NFT managed Omnichain Smart Contracts, allowing users to mint NFTs on the Bitcoin network and trade them across any network. ZetaChain aims to simplify interoperability and reduce transaction costs by implementing Omnichain Smart Contracts. The architecture also enables the programming of chains like Bitcoin and asset management across multiple chains.
We continue to add new developer tutorials for Zeta App builders. In this latest one, you will learn how to create an omnichain smart contract for swapping tokens between blockchains: youtube.com/watch?v=RQjrqh…
We just saw a sneak peek of next gen liquidity pools by Eddy Finance. Using an Omnichain Smart Contract, Eddy will support native deposits of ETH, BTC, and MATIC in one single pool. For context, today's existing interoperability solutions entail asset risks like wrapping and
3. Lowest cost and gas fees ⛽️ Eddy Finance’s special algorithm ensures swaps with minimal risk and slippage. Instead of expensive message-passing, transferring assets on external chains only comes with basic transfer gas fees. This can save you a lot on gas costs 💸 (5/10)
With ZetaChain, Bitcoin owners can now buy/sell NFTs and digital assets without ever leaving their Bitcoin wallet. @_Hominids_ showcases this feature on testnet, taking first place in our inaugural ZetaChain for Bitcoin hackathon. Congratulations! Coming soon, the ZetaChain
