$ZC Holder Crate Claims Open in October

All $ZC holders qualify for a Holder Crate containing an additional $ZC allocation based on existing holdings, with claims opening October 12, 2026.

Every trade
feeds the fire.

0.5% of every $ZC trade is collected on-chain as sales tax. Half of it buys zipcoins back, and those are burned with a message or zipped as prizes.

Every name
is a door.

Burn zipcoins at anyone's ENS name. The message waits at their door, and the burn is how they know you meant it.

14 doors, 32 knocks so far.

Private ETH in.
Private dollars out.

Ethereum has two privacy systems that never touched: 0xbow's Privacy Pools, where ETH hides in a crowd, and Aztec, where zk.money keeps balances private. zipcoin is the door between them. Zip ETH here, type alice.zk.money, and one proof later Alice has private dollars.

The third contract is yours.

The pool asks one thing of anything that spends a zipped note: that it is the processooor named in the proof. Two contracts do it today.
