Zora has announced the launch of its native token, ZORA, which will serve as a core component of the protocol’s decentralized infrastructure.
The platform integrates multiple modules: Zora Swap for liquidity trading, Vaults for automated yield aggregation, Lending for non-custodial borrowing and lending, and DAO governance for decision-making. The ZORA token functions as a unifying element across the protocol’s modules, providing holders with governance rights, protocol incentives, fee reductions, and access to staking rewards. The token incorporates a deflationary mechanism, such as buyback and burn programs, aimed at supporting the protocol’s long-term sustainability.
ZORA is not just a utility token—it is the central nervous system of our protocol. It connects community governance with financial innovation in a transparent and secure way.
Zora emphasizes security through multi-layered protections, including external audits from CertiK and PeckShield, multi-sig wallets, an insurance fund, and real-time liquidation monitoring. This ensures user assets remain fully protected while protocol logic executes transparently on-chain.
Looking forward, Zora highlights cross-chain expansion beyond Ethereum and Arbitrum, enhanced DAO governance with on-chain execution, and integrations with Real World Assets (RWA) such as real estate and tokenized bonds. The project targets surpassing $1 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL) by 2027 and building a global community of over one million members.
Zora presents the ZORA token as a mechanism intended to facilitate access between traditional financial users and Web3-based tools, with the objective of removing intermediaries in financial interactions. The protocol design allocates decision-making authority and protocol-driven incentives to participants, aiming to establish a system governed by code and decentralized consensus.
