The $ZAMA Token: This is the native token of Zama Protocol – a confidentiality blockchain protocol that uses Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) to enable private transactions on public chains like Ethereum and Solana.
The token is used for:
Paying fees (transaction encryption, reading hidden balances, cross-chain confidential transfers)
Staking to support network operations
Governance
Tokenomics follow a burn-and-mint model: 100% of fees are burned, and new tokens are minted as rewards for operators (initially 18 nodes under Delegated Proof-of-Stake). Fees are stable in USD ($0.001–$1), with massive discounts (up to 100x cheaper) for heavy users.
The protocol is designed to be self-sustaining, if 10% of future crypto transactions are encrypted, it could generate over $1B in annual fees.
Mainnet launch & TGE expected in Q4 2025.

Coming Soon: The $ZAMA Token.
$ZAMA is the native token of the Zama Confidential Blockchain Protocol.
It will be used for protocol fees and staking. It follows a burn-and-mint model, where 100% of the fees are burned and tokens are minted to reward operators.
■ Users pay fees to keep transactions confidential (fees are burned)
■ Network operators get rewarded with new $ZAMA tokens
What Do Users Pay For?
■ Encrypting transaction data: $0.005-$0.50
■ Reading confidential balances: $0.001-$0.10
■ Moving confidential assets between chains: $0.01-$1
Heavy users may get big discounts (up to 100x cheaper). Prices stay stable in USD even if the token price changes, creating predictability for developers who use Zama in their products.
Real Example: Confidential Token Transfer.
■ Send tokens without revealing amounts or balances
■ Cost: $0.008-$0.80 depending on your usage level
■ Power users pay pennies; casual users pay under $1
How Operators Get Paid.
The Zama Protocol uses Delegated Proof-of-Stake, with 18 operators running the protocol: initially 13 KMS nodes and 5 FHE Coprocessors (and more over time).
■ Coprocessors: bigger rewards, higher costs
■ KMS nodes: smaller rewards, lower costs
Token holders can delegate their stake to these operators to help secure the network.
Zama’s tokenomics are designed to be self-sufficient.
If 10% of future crypto transactions are encrypted, it could result in $1B+ in yearly fees.
