Tokenomics

Holding the platform's utility and governance token, ZKE, grants access to a number of advantages.

Tokens

ZKE token: zkEra utility and governance token. ZKE token unlocks a variety of benefits for holders. Stay updated about our news and follow community channels.

Steps to purchase ZKE can be found on the Buy page.

After staking ZKE, you will receive ETH and an escrowed ZKE token.

ZLP token: Users can mint ZLP using any asset in the ZLP pool and burn it to redeem any pool asset.

degenLP token: Users can mint ZLP using any asset in the degen pool and burn it to redeem any pool asset.

Treasury

The treasury helps maintain ZLP and degen Pool liquidity and offers a steady flow of ETH returns for every staked ZKE. If the ratio of the treasury to the total supply of ZKE is smaller than the market price, the treasury may also be used to buy back and burn ZKE as it increases. This would result in a minimal price for ZKE in terms of ETH and ZLP. A governance vote will be held before any changes are implemented, and this option will only be utilized if additional products are released and liquidity mining is necessary.

The protocol owns and provides ZLP/ETH liquidity; the commissions from this trading pair are converted to ZLP and placed into the treasury.

Supply

You can view the ZKE supply on the Dashboard after the zkEra launch.

The increase in circulating supply will depend on the number of vested tokens and the amount allocated for marketing and partnerships. The projected maximum supply is 50 million ZKE tokens.

Minting beyond the 50 million maximum supply is governed by a timelock. This option will only be exercised if new products are launched and liquidity mining is needed. A governance vote will take place before any changes are made.
