Hello Zappers! A lot has been happening behind the scenes lately—from highly anticipated project launches to our ongoing work on CTZN NFTs and our expansion toward @base. To keep everyone in the loop, we’d like to outline what we’re working on and what you can expect in the coming months. Let’s dive in.
Expanding to Base!
As you may have guessed, we’re planning two exciting initiatives on @base! While we’ll continue supporting Blast and the Blast team, our growth strategy requires embracing multiple networks to expand our user base and improve our chances of listing on top-tier exchanges.
So far, support from Coinbase and Base has been crucial for us, helping address some challenges we’ve faced within Blast’s relatively new ecosystem. This means ZAP tokens will likely circulate on Base with a bridge connecting it to Blast, ensuring seamless access and interoperability for our users.
ZAP 2.0
With our expansion to Base, we’ll also be launching a completely refreshed look for ZAP. We’re excited to unveil ZAP 2.0 soon—featuring a new brand identity and an entirely redesigned website with improved UI and UX. Visit zap.tech next week for the big reveal—and for now, here’s a sneak peek.
Funding Recap
ZAP's $15M funding round
We recently announced our official $15 million funding round! At the community’s request, here is the full list of investors:
@rarestonecap, @cypher_capital, @ShardingCapital, @nxgen_xyz, WeetardsDAO, @partyhatDAO, @RealBasementDAO, @lawmaster (The Block), Chelsea Jiang (Foresight Ventures), @LucaNetz (Pudgy Penguins), and angel investors from @LayerZero_Labs.
Influencers/KOLs include @IvanOnTech, @elliotrades, @VirtualBacon0x, @RookieXBT, @icebagz_, @buyerofponzi, @krugermacro, @Tradermayne, @gainzy222, @KeyboardMonkey3, @0xBackwards, @PostyXBT, @thecryptocactus, @dingalingts, @Zeneca, @barneytheboi, @loldefi, and more.
Korea Blockchain Week
Starting September 1st, part of our team will attend Korea Blockchain Week! The Korean community represents our largest group of Vault holders, so we’re committed to engaging with them directly and securing listings on Korean exchanges to make ZAP more accessible.
We plan to bring something special for our Korean friends (and visitors!) in September—we’ll be collaborating with one of the world’s largest consumer crypto companies and hosting multiple events under @kbwofficial. More details will be shared this month—users and Vault holders will qualify for exclusive rewards.
ZAP Vault Update
The ZAP Vault has played a critical role in giving early users exposure to the token, allowing participants to earn approximately 15% of tokens at token generation event (TGE). Vault holders can look forward to higher-yield staking opportunities, and our full tokenomics will be released this month.
For full details, check out our gitbook.
When Will CTZN Launch?
We know it’s been quiet regarding @CTZN_NFT. Given current NFT market conditions, which have remained unfavorable for some time, we’ve decided to delay the CTZN mint while prioritizing our TGE and focusing efforts on ensuring a successful ZAP listing.
However, work continues behind the scenes—our animation team is preparing exciting teasers to launch once the mint date is confirmed, expected by late Q3 or early Q4. We remain committed to allocating 10% of the CTZN supply to the Vault, which will be airdropped directly to Vault holders.
New Features Launching
Not only is the ZAP website and brand getting a complete overhaul, but ZAP Launch is also being reinvented. ZAP Launch will now enable instantly tradable tokens on both Blast and Base, allowing users to create tokens with one click at extremely low cost.
By adopting a model similar to pump.fun, ZAP will become the go-to platform for accessible token launches. We’re building powerful tools into this release to ensure safe trading, including the ZAP Value Index. More updates expected next Tuesday.
Focus on TGE and Base Ecosystem
We understand many—especially Vault holders—have been patiently waiting for details about the ZAP token launch. Everything we’re doing right now is laser-focused on TGE, which is why we’re actively engaging with the Base ecosystem to demonstrate success across multiple blockchains.
The success of Gigadrops on Blast has opened doors for collaboration with tier-one exchanges. While nothing is confirmed yet, we anticipate announcing a listing date within the next 30 days, coinciding with our exciting new activities on Base. We’ve learned a lot from Gigadrops on Blast and are eager to bring that momentum to Base.
As always, thank you for your continued support—we can’t wait to show you what we’ve built this August.
