Gateway integrations revamped the smart contract interface with externally owned accounts (EOAs) allowed to send tokens and call Universal Apps in a unified API. This fosters the hub-and-spoke model rather than the previous point-to-point messaging which was marred with complexities without extending to non-smart chains.
“The hub-and-spoke model offered by Universal Apps lets you manage native foreign assets and data from a single place. Rather, point-to-point messaging between contracts on different chains is complex, difficult to scale, and cannot extend to non-smart chains such as Bitcoin.”
Furthermore, Gateway unlocks multi-step operations through a single click. Users can now send Bitcoin to a Universal App on the network or in a USDC transfer to Ethereum. ”For example, a Bitcoin user can interact with a Universal App to send USDC to a recipient on Ethereum. An Ethereum user can buy an NFT on ZetaChain and send it to their account on the BNB chain all in one step,” the platform added.
New Era of Interoperability
According to the release, devs and users will gain from easy maintenance, better scalability, chain abstraction, and unified liquidity. Particularly linear scalability will come in handy towards a future-proof blockchain interoperability. Unified liquidity makes cross-chain transcription efficient while reducing fragmentation in the system. Chain abstraction connects with multiple networks without multiple management.
