Google Cloud partners with ZetaChain to strengthen Universal Blockchain

Google Cloud has joined forces with ZetaChain to support Universal Blockchain.

The collaboration, announced in a ZetaChain post, aims to drive broader adoption of Web3 technology and facilitate the development of applications that can run on multiple blockchains.

Google Cloud will be the validator for ZetaChain (ZETA) and will help secure and scale the blockchain ecosystem.

ZetaChain’s Universal Blockchain allows developers to create “Universal Applications”, which are decentralized applications that can run on any blockchain network, such as Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH).

This approach differs from most blockchains, which are typically isolated and unable to share data or assets with other networks.

ZetaChain’s model aims to increase accessibility and connectivity in the blockchain world, similar to how the internet provides seamless access to various websites and platforms.

As the validator, Google Cloud will leverage its infrastructure to secure transactions on ZetaChain’s blockchain. This role is important to maintain the integrity of the blockchain by validating and recording data and providing a trusted ledger for all participants.

Zeta Tokens

ZetaChain also promises to assign 1 million native tokens to five validators on Google Cloud’s infrastructure. This delegation strengthens the network by funding and promoting verification activities critical to maintaining security and functionality.

Developers building on ZetaChain will now have access to Google Cloud’s Web3 Startups Program, which offers cloud credits that can help offset infrastructure costs.

Additionally, Google Cloud will facilitate application testing and development by integrating ZetaChain’s testnet faucet, allowing developers to quickly access test tokens.

Google Cloud also supported the BNB Chain ecosystem by investing $10 million in the Most Valuable Generator (MVB) accelerator program. This investment aims to increase decentralized application development on the BNB Chain through Google Cloud’s Web3 Startups Program.
