About ZetaChain

ZetaChain (ZETA) is a universal L1 blockchain that enables native cross-chain smart contracts — contracts that can read and write state across Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, and other chains without bridges or wrapped tokens. Unlike cross-chain bridges that move assets, ZetaChain creates a unified execution environment where one smart contract can control assets on multiple chains natively. ZetaChain can connect Bitcoin to DeFi directly — allowing native BTC to be used in Ethereum smart contracts. ZETA is the gas and staking token. The mainnet launched in 2024 after a large airdrop to testnet participants.

How to Swap ZETA

Exchanging ZetaChain (ZETA) on SyntheticSwap requires no account creation or identity documents. Open SyntheticSwap, choose ZETA as your source or target coin, provide your destination wallet address, and review the floating rate displayed. After sending ZETA from your personal wallet to the deposit address, the swap processes automatically and your chosen asset is delivered directly to your wallet. SyntheticSwap never holds your funds at any point during the process.
