ZERA is building a privacy-preserving financial layer that turns the assets you already hold (USDC, USDT, SOL, BTC, ETH, etc.) into private, portable digital cash.
A single compressed ZK pool enables shielded balances, private transfers, and offline P2P via NFC, Bluetooth, and QR.
Powered by Pedersen commitments, deterministic nullifiers, and Groth16 zk-SNARKs for scalability on @Solana and beyond - with an early version already on devnet.
In the long term, ZERA targets internet-scale private payments and transfers with cross-chain portability, enterprise-ready rails, and extensible tools for developers to build privacy-preserving DeFi across the app stack.
The ecosystem token $ZERA:
(8avjtjHAHFqp4g2RR9ALAGBpSTqKPZR8nRbzSTwZERA), aligns value with adoption through programmatic buybacks & burns tied to protocol activity and volume.
The project was formerly known as #M0N3Y, and turned into $ZERA and @ZeraLabs after a strategic rebrand including a 1:1 token migration, aligning identity with product scope.
Compliant by design, ZERA is advancing the "Texas Privacy-First Digital Finance Act", defending your right to use privacy tools, protecting developers right to build them, treating code as speech, and enabling mainstream integration.
Founded and led by @dev_skill_issue, a former MetaMask developer and nuclear engineer with past roles at USAA and Twitter (X). Originally begun as a PhD-by-publication, now a company driving cutting-edge ZK privacy and offline cash R&D.
