Solana-Based Derivatives Protocol Zeta Markets Unveils Tokenomics, Allocates 10% For Airdrops

Derivatives protocol built on Solana, Zeta Markets (Z) unveiled the tokenomics of its native token ahead of the upcoming airdrop.

The total supply of Zeta Markets tokens amounts to 1 billion with a distribution plan that allocates 30% to platform trader incentives, 22.5% to the community treasury, 20% to contributors, 17.5% to investors, and 10% to airdrops.

The token airdrop will undergo two distribution phases. The initial phase will serve early users and the Solana ecosystem, with 5% allocated to traders and 1% to Zeta Markets users. In the second phase, 4% of the airdrop will be distributed to early token pledgers.

Platform incentives that are specifically designated for traders and are crafted to cultivate favorable trading conditions will commence shortly following the airdrop.

The token plays a pivotal role in governing the Zeta protocol and will introduce innovative vote escrow tokenomics on Solana. Furthermore, through token staking, users will gain access to governance privileges, additional rewards, and an opportunity for extended staking periods for enhanced benefits. In addition, maker and taker rewards, accounting for 30% of the tokens, will be allocated to users to ensure high liquidity and optimal exchange conditions.
