### What is ZetaChain?

ZetaChain is the world's first and only blockchain that connects everything. It
An EVM-compatible L1 blockchain that connects everything. ZetaChain make it easy
to build interoperable dApps that span any chain including Bitcoin. It
facilitates cross-chain and cross-layer value transfer, message delivery, and
smart contract calls — thus enabling for the first time omnichain dApps
(odApps) which can leverage liquidity on multiple networks and read and update
states on all connected networks.

You can start building now, and add powerful cross-chain capabilities to your
dApp using ZetaChain's [Connector](/developers/cross-chain-messaging/connector).

## Security

### How many block confirmations are needed on a source chain transaction before ZetaChain observes and processes it?

You can configure it by passing a parameter to ZetaChain's
[Connector](/developers/cross-chain-messaging/connector).

### How does ZetaChain handle a case where a source TX is reverted (e. g. on a PoW chain due to an attack)?

Upon detection of the very deep re-organization, ZetaChain will halt and the
recovery would be a social process between various stakeholders including
ZetaChain validators and team, dApps developers, and end users. The dApps
developers should build in the capability to resolve inconsistent states due to
the very deep re-organization. The dApps should also configure the confirmation
count accordingly to strike balance between transaction speed and finality---for
example, a multi-chain NFT dApp should use a high confirmation number (such as
30 confirmation on Ethereum), whereas a cross-chain DEX could use a smaller
value (such as 12 confirmations on Ethereum) because DEX deals with fungible
tokens therefore the loss can be socialized.
