Zeus Network price

Zeus Network aims to onboard the next billion users to Web3. In the rapidly emerging Web3 ecosystem, new blockchains are deployed and operated everyday. One of the key challenges is the interoperability of blockchains. Zeus Network seeks to build a cross-chain infrastructure by utilizing the world's fastest, most affordable, and highest-performing blockchain, Solana. This is achieved by developing Zeus Layer, a pluggable and programmable network of nodes on the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM). Zeus Network envisions a future where developers can build decentralized applications (dApps) permissionlessly on top of bridgeless cross-chain infrastructure. The first mission of Zeus Network is to introduce Bitcoin liquidity to Solana, through our first dApp APOLLO.

How does it work

1. Chain-agnostic transactions are proposed and stored on Solana: Bitcoin and Solana transactions are first proposed by Zeus Nodes and then submitted to Zeus program states.
2. Signatures are signed and aggregated on Zeus layer: Zeus layer provides programmable signatures through Zeus Programming Library (ZPL).
3. Broadcast signed transactions to target blockchain: Zeus Node relays signed proposed transactions to target blockchains.
4. Secure the cross-chain communication by fraud proofs: When certain Zeus Nodes collude, honest one can secure the network by simply submitting fraud proofs to slash malicious ones.

Price and tokenomics

The maximum supply of ZEUS is 1,000,000,000, with an initial circulation of 167,500,000 (16.75%) allocated across various segments: Early Backers (10%), Jupiter LFG Launchpad (5%), Ecosystem and Community Growth (40%), Foundation (20%), Team (15%), Liquidity (5%), and Advisors (5%). Each allocation has specific vesting periods to ensure a balanced distribution.
