I’ve always believed the most important changes in finance are ultimately changes in access.
Who can participate. What they can own. Where capital can move. And who gets to build on top of it.
Over the last few years, ZIG has moved from helping people access markets to building the infrastructure, products and distribution needed to bring those markets onchain.
So @ZIGFinance feels less like a rebrand and more like the name finally catching up with what we have become.
ZIGChain. ZIG Markets. ZIG Labs. ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01
Different pieces of the same ambition:
Capital Markets Onchain. Open to Everyone
ZIGChain is now ZIG Finance.
Our business has grown beyond infrastructure into financial products, origination, structuring, distribution and ecosystem development, with ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01 at the economic centre.
We're now building across financial products, origination, structuring, distribution, infrastructure and ecosystem development, with ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01 at the economic centre.
494,630,700 $ZIG more to go! 💪
The fourth monthly ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01 acquisition cycle is complete.
A portion of ZIG Markets revenue from October funded daily open-market acquisitions totalling 1,350,000 ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01, worth $68,175 at today’s price.
Half goes to the Ecosystem Pool. The other half goes to validators, who vote on whether to retire it.
Every cycle, onchain: zigscan.org/tx/ADC005DB50BB6…
Delighted to represent @ZIGFinance at the RWA Leaders Summit by @RWAlabs_ae earlier today.
Tokenization without distribution or composability is just a more expensive database.
The real opportunity is making assets more accessible, liquid and productive, while connecting capital to real economic activity.
Tokenization without buyers is overhyped.
Our Head of Strategy and BD, @ahm3dzig, spoke at the RWA Leaders Summit by @RWAlabs_ae in Dubai today on distribution, and the real economic impact tokenization has to deliver.
There is real opportunity in debt, the largest asset class in traditional finance, and in stablecoins, whose impact already deserves more credit than it gets.
Putting both to work onchain, and getting them to the people who buy them, is what we do every day.
“Conviction without size is a waste of time.” - Stanley Druckenmiller
Capital, time, energy or effort. If you believe in something, commit fully.

It’s not just about “meeting people & getting excited for the future” anymore. With live products & integrations we are writing the new age finance.
Across @worldlibertyfi, @FasanaraCapital, @CoinstoreExc & @GroveXchange, all the announcements this week were of the LIVE products, bringing institutional grade yield onchain with value directly tied up to ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01 🚀
We are just getting started - Billions 🤝

TOKEN2049 week in Singapore was about institutional adoption and access.
For us, that means connecting people still waiting for investment opportunities with businesses still waiting for capital.
Here’s how our week went. 🧵
Ahmed retweeted
@token2049 + @F1 Singapore, it was an absolute pleasure! 🇸🇬🏎️
Big take away : definitely less tinkering, more business across the board and PayFi is gaining momentum as a standout category.
It’s also been a big week for @ZIGFinance with @worldlibertyfi, @FasanaraCapital , @GroveXchange & @CoinstoreExc .
All part of our mission to make opportunities once reserved for a few accessible to everyone, everywhere.
Institutional-grade finance. Without the institutional barriers.
@ZIGFinance I @FasanaraCapital
For years, onchain yield was circular: crypto lent to crypto, backed by crypto, paid in crypto.
Today, ZIG Finance is partnering with @FasanaraCapital to change where that yield comes from.
No more idle stables 💪
@ZIGFinance I @CoinstoreExc
Coinstore (@CoinstoreExc) and ZIG Markets are putting USDT to work in private credit.
The ZIG Markets curated USDT Vault is now live on Coinstore’s Earn platform.
The next phase of stablecoin adoption is not more stablecoins. It is more things you can actually do with them.
Building that with $USD1
@ZIGFinance I @worldlibertyfi
ZIG Finance and @worldlibertyfi are partnering to put ethereum:0x8d0d000ee44948fc98c9b98a4fa4921476f08b0d to work across real-world investment opportunities.
ZIG Markets will originate, structure and distribute the opportunities, with ethereum:0x8d0d000ee44948fc98c9b98a4fa4921476f08b0d serving as the settlement and treasury layer across the program.
The first deployment is already live through our PayFi Vault on Concrete, financing short-duration cross-border payment and remittance flows.
But PayFi is the starting point. The broader objective is to build a shelf where ethereum:0x8d0d000ee44948fc98c9b98a4fa4921476f08b0d can move from stablecoin liquidity into real economic activity and back again.
Rafay, Saylor, same table, mapping the takeover.
Capital moving onchain, old finance getting a makeover.
No cap in the caption, we’re stacking the playbook.
My dawgs see the future before they know where to look.

A year ago, we stood in front of a whiteboard and put the vision out there.
Today, so much of what we talked about is real; built through hard work and an unwavering belief in what we set out to do.
Yesterday. Today. Forever. $ZIG
Last year, the video was real and we drew the future on a whiteboard.
This year, the video is AI. But what we’ve built is very real.
We said ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01 would become the meta-asset of onchain finance.
That meant building applications, bringing real financial products onchain, attracting institutional capital, creating distribution, generating revenue and putting ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01 at the center of it all.
One year later, we’re quoting ourselves and bringing the receipts.
And we’re nowhere near done.
Exactly 4 months ago, we launched ZIG Markets at the @ZIGChain Summit.
Today our curation backs rapid capital formation around differentiated yield from emerging markets.
Higher! 💪

Congratulations to the entire @Ask_ORO team.
Onchain finance does not have an opportunity problem. It has a complexity problem. There are simply too many fragmented pieces, protocols and actions between a user and a simple financial outcome.
That is why onchain finance needs AI, and why I believe Oro can be revolutionary.
Everything for Everyone 🤝
We have raised a $3M strategic round to make onchain finance feel less like infrastructure and more like a conversation.

.@ConcreteXYZ has selected ZIG Markets as one of the strategy curators for the solana:USD1ttGY1N17NEEHLmELoaybftRBUSErhqYiQzvEmuB RWA Vault.
As part of our mandate, we will originate, structure and manage real-world opportunities for USD1 liquidity in cross-border settlement finance, putting stablecoins to work in the prefunding layer that helps payment operators settle more remittance volume, faster.
