+
+## Deploying the protocol contracts on connected chains
+
+The GatewayEVM and ERC20Custody contracts must be deploy to setup a new environment on a connected chains.
+
+**GatewayEVM**
+
+The following environment variable must be set in the `.env` file:
+
+- `TSS_ADDRESS`: address of the TSS used on the network
+- `GATEWAY_ADMIN_ADDRESS_EVM`: address of the admin
+- `ZETA_ERC20_EVM`: address of the ZETA token on the network
+
+Once setup, the contract can be deployed:
+
+```
+forge script scripts/deploy/deterministic/DeployGatewayEVM.s.sol \
+  --private-key <PRIVATE_KEY> \
+  --rpc-url <RPC_URL> \
+  --verify \
+  --etherscan-api-key <ETHERSCAN_API_KEY> \
+  --chain-id <CHAIN_ID> \
+  --broadcast
+```
+
+Note: `verify` and `etherscan-api-key` options are optional for the contract deployment itself.
+
+**ERC20Custody**
+
+In addition to the previous environment variables, the following environment variables must be set:
+
+- `ERC20_CUSTODY_ADMIN_ADDRESS_EVM`: address of the admin
+- `GATEWAY_PROXY_EVM`: address of the **proxy** gateway contract deployed in previous step
+
+Once setup, the contract can be deployed:
+
+```
+forge script scripts/deploy/deterministic/DeployERC20Custody.s.sol \
+  --private-key <PRIVATE_KEY> \
+  --rpc-url <RPC_URL> \
+  --verify \
+  --etherscan-api-key <ETHERSCAN_API_KEY> \
+  --chain-id <CHAIN_ID> \
+  --broadcast
+```
+
+## Deploying the protocol contracts on ZetaChain
+
+Since ZRC20s are deployed by the protocol, only the `GatewayZEVM` contract needs to be deployed manually on ZetaChain.
+
+The following environment variable must be set in the `.env` file:
+
+- `GATEWAY_ADMIN_ADDRESS_ZEVM`: address of the admin 
+- `WZETA`: wrapped ZETA contract address
+
+Once setup, the contract can be deployed:
+
+```
+forge script scripts/deploy/deterministic/DeployGatewayZEVM.s.sol \
+  --private-key <PRIVATE_KEY> \
+  --rpc-url <RPC_URL> \
+  --verify \
+  --verifier blockscout \
+  --verifier-url <VERIFIER_URL> \
+  --chain-id <CHAIN_ID> \
+  --broadcast
+```
+
+## Deterministic deployments
+
+Deployment scripts in `deterministic` uses create2 with Foundry (https://book.getfoundry.sh/tutorials/create2-tutorial) to perform deterministic deployment of  contracts.
+This ensures that on every EVM chain `GatewayEVM` contract will be on same address.
+
+Since UUPS proxy is used for the contracts, both implementation and `ERC1967Proxy` are deployed using above technique:
+
+- calculate expected address
+- adding a salt to deployment
+- basic assertions to verify that deployed address is same as expected
+
+The contract can be upgraded with the following documentation: https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-foundry-upgrades. It requires:
+
+- deploy new implementation (doesn't need to be deterministic since proxy address doesn't change)
+- use plugin to upgrade proxy
+
+
+## All deployment scripts
+
+- `deterministic/DeployERC20Custody.s.sol`: deploy the ERC20 custody contract on a connected chain
+- `deterministic/DeployGatewayEVM.s.sol`: deploy the gateway contract on a connected chain
+- `deterministic/DeployGatewayZEVM.s.sol`: deploy the gateway contract on ZetaChain
+- `deterministic/TestERC20.s.sol`: deploy a ERC20 for test purpose
+- `deterministic/ZetaConnectorNonNative.s.sol`: deploy the ZETA connector contract on a connected chain, currently not used
+- `deterministic/UpgradeGatewayEVM.s.sol`: upgrade the GatewayEVM contract to a test contract implementation, used for test purposes only
+- `DeployZRC20.s.sol`: deploy a ZRC20 for test purpose
