🔐$ZAP tokens now claimable 🔐

Token claim and staking is now available on main net at http://zap.tech

Due to a number of technical issues today, we were unable to get our contracts deployed to a state we were happy with in time for TGE, and we’ve been working non stop to get this fixed.

We will be releasing a full report on the technical issues, and a transparency report highlighting all of the token and team wallets.

We expect some turbulence at this time due to the delays - we are committed to a compensation plan for all vault holders and additional bonuses for stakers which we will detail by the end of week.

Thanks for your continued support at this time.

Onwards! ⚡️

🚨 TGE UPDATE🚨

The ZAP team is working tirelessly to fix ongoing issues as a matter of urgency

We've just released a public statement, giving context around what happened.

Fixing these issues and doing right by our vault holders and community is our number one priority above all else.

We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to sort this. Thank you.

For full details, please read the statement below, which will be updated throughout today:
https://zap-launchpad.notion.site/ZAP-TGE-Statement-3dc11f8506ea44d4ac0b3341bfe1dcf3

🚨 URGENT 🚨

$ZAP CLAIMS WILL BE DELAYED TEMPORARILY.

There is an error with the claims and staking deployments which is being fixed as fast as possible by our dev team!

This means that you will likely NOT be able to claim before TGE, but shortly after.

This applies equally to vaults, investors, and airdrops.

We appreciate your patience with us at this time! Updates to follow.

$ZAP is officially listing on Gate.io!

Set your reminders for TGE tomorrow 👇

📅 DATE: October 9th
⏰ TIME: 10:00 AM UTC
⛓️ CHAIN: Base
⚡️ EXCHANGES: Bybit and Gate - more to come!
