ZEROBASE’s ZBT token launched on October 17, 2025. Because that date has passed, this page now serves as a sourced retrospective rather than an outdated “what to expect” article.
Binance identified ZBT as its 54th HODLer Airdrops project and opened multiple spot trading pairs. KuCoin’s announcement scheduled ZBT/USDT trading for 13:00 UTC on October 17. The exact launch time therefore depends on whether a reader means the token-generation event, a particular exchange’s deposit window or the start of a specific trading pair.
Launch facts at a glance

Exchange availability and supported networks can change. Anyone transferring ZBT should verify the current exchange notice, network and contract address immediately before the transaction.
What ZEROBASE says it does
ZEROBASE describes itself as infrastructure for privacy-focused and verifiable off-chain computation. Its materials combine two broad technologies:
- Zero-knowledge proofs, which can let one party prove a statement without revealing all underlying information.
- Trusted execution environments, which are protected areas of hardware intended to isolate code and data while they are processed.
The project describes applications such as privacy-aware authentication, trading and staking. These are project claims and intended use cases, not proof that every application has reached production scale or delivers the promised security.
Before assessing adoption, look for independently verifiable usage: active developers, proof jobs completed, fees paid, network reliability, audits and identifiable applications using the service.
How the network model is described
Binance Academy summarises the architecture as a multi-hub and node system designed to distribute proving work. In a proving network, users or applications request computational proofs, while specialised operators generate them and receive compensation under the network’s rules.
That model creates several questions investors and developers should ask:
- How many independent node operators are active?
- Can one hub censor or reorder work?
- Which components depend on trusted hardware manufacturers?
- How are invalid proofs or unavailable operators handled?
- What on-chain data shows real demand rather than subsidised test activity?
- Which contracts and circuits have been independently audited?
Technical complexity can be a genuine advantage, but it can also make weaknesses harder for non-specialists to evaluate.
ZBT utility and token supply
Project and exchange materials describe ZBT as a utility and governance token used for network services and participant incentives. The stated maximum supply is one billion tokens.
Maximum supply is not the same as circulating supply. Vesting schedules determine when allocations held by the team, investors, ecosystem programmes or other groups become transferable. A low initial float can make price unusually sensitive to demand, while later unlocks can increase available supply.
Before relying on any circulating-supply number, check:
- the date of the measurement;
- token contracts on each supported network;
- vesting and unlock schedules;
- whether bridged tokens are excluded from double-counting; and
- whether the source distinguishes circulating, total and maximum supply.
The original version of this article stated an initial circulation near 10%. Binance’s later listing materials described 220 million tokens, or 22% of maximum supply, at listing. The earlier unsourced figure has been removed.
Why the original price predictions were removed
The earlier page offered short- and medium-term price ranges without a model, source or valuation method. Those numbers did not help a reader assess the asset and have been withdrawn.
A token price cannot be evaluated from technology labels alone. At minimum, a valuation discussion needs current circulating supply, fully diluted value, unlock schedule, liquidity, protocol revenue or usage, comparable networks and a clear explanation of assumptions.
Even then, the result is a scenario—not a promise. New tokens can experience severe volatility, thin order books and rapid changes in available supply.
Listing does not equal endorsement
An exchange listing confirms that a venue offers access under its own rules. It does not prove that:
- the token is suitable for a particular investor;
- the protocol will attract users;
- the smart contracts are free of vulnerabilities;
- liquidity will remain available; or
- the token’s legal treatment is settled in every jurisdiction.
Check whether a venue applies a risk or seed label, read its current withdrawal rules and confirm the contract from more than one official source. Do not use a contract address copied from a reply, private message or sponsored search result.
A practical research checklist
For an updated ZBT assessment, verify:
- current project documentation and code repositories;
- active nodes and proof-generation activity;
- audits and disclosed security incidents;
- circulating supply and the next material unlock;
- token concentration among large addresses;
- daily spot volume and order-book depth by venue;
- actual fees or revenue generated by network use; and
- whether stated applications are live, in testing or only proposed.
The most useful question is not whether zero-knowledge technology is important. It is whether this project is delivering a service people use and whether the token captures value from that use.
Bottom line
ZBT launched on October 17, 2025 with a stated maximum supply of one billion tokens and listings on several exchanges. ZEROBASE presents a technically ambitious combination of zero-knowledge proofs and trusted hardware, but a launch and exchange access do not establish adoption or investment value.
Use current network data, audits, token unlocks and liquidity—not an old launch headline—to evaluate the project now.

Frequently asked questions
The ZBT token-generation and exchange-listing event took place on October 17, 2025. Trading schedules differed by exchange.
Project and exchange materials state a fixed maximum supply of one billion ZBT. Circulating supply is lower and changes as vesting allocations unlock.
No. A listing provides market access, not a guarantee of project adoption, liquidity, token value, technical security or regulatory treatment.
