Build on ZERA with confidence
Smart Coin Lifecycle: Exchange, Burn, and Refund
ZERA’s coin supply isn’t managed through mining or printing—it’s governed by community participation and fully enforced by smart contracts.
Flexible, and Predictable Fees
Pay transaction fees using any approved coin (not just ZERA)

A Treasury to Support the Network—Run by the Community
Funded through supply management exchanges and network fees.

Harness the Power of Decentralized Governance
Governance is entirely on-chain, with every decision made through transparent proposals, verifiable voting, and autonomous execution.

Developer Pathways
Whether you’re building apps, launching tokens, or designing infrastructure, ZERA provides multiple entry points:
Launch a token – Deploy your own token and optionally apply for ACE status, enabling native fee payment and validator staking.
Build dApps – Smart contracts with governance hooks, permission layers, and transparent upgrade paths.
Create interfaces – Earn sustainably through interface fees; monetize without custody or gatekeepers.

Funding & Programs
Governance has the power approve proposals for funding. For example:
Treasury Grants – Fund open-source tools, audits, and ecosystem expansion.
IIT (Innovation Initiatives Token) – 30M+ ZERA allocated for experiments, research, and hackathons.
ZMT (ZERA Marketing Token) – Support for adoption, education, and awareness campaigns.
ZIP (ZERA Improvement Protocol) – Protocol-level upgrades proposed and executed by governance.

Interoperability
ZERA is built to connect.
Governance-aligned bridges: For example, ZERA–Solana via community-controlled Guardians.
Origin identity preserved: Bring assets across chains while unlocking ACE utility, staking, and governance rights.
Future-proof design: Bridge patterns adaptable to other chains and L2s.

Smart Contracts
WASM-powered: Write in Rust, Go, C, AssemblyScript, or other languages.
Sandboxed & performant: Near-native execution with safety guarantees.
Governance-aware: Contracts can be permissionless or permissioned, and upgrades can be autonomously ratified.
