Risk, FAQ and terms.
Risk
Coins can go to zero. Roots exist only while there is BNB in them. Nothing here is advice.
- Smart contracts can have bugs. The circuits, the Poseidon implementation and the pool are new code. Do not put in what you cannot afford to lose.
- Launching is permissionless: anyone can launch a token with any name. A name or logo proves nothing.
- Graduated coins trade on PancakeSwap with a 2% pair-tax. Some aggregators and bots handle fee-on-transfer tokens poorly.
- Holder rewards depend on an off-chain keeper being online and following the published rule. Check the snapshots.
- Privacy is not guaranteed and depends on how much the pool is used. Read the shielded pool page.
FAQ
Can the deployer rug the roots?
No. The deployer has no power over roots. Only burning coins moves BNB out, in proportion to the coins burned.
Is there a team allocation?
No. Every coin, $ZKBNB included, starts with its whole supply on the curve or reserved for liquidity. See Tokenomics.
Where does the money for rewards and buybacks come from?
Only from the 2.00% trading fee. Nothing is minted to pay rewards. See The flywheel.
Why does a harvest need an approval first?
Roots burns your coins with burnFrom, which needs an allowance for the Roots contract.
What happens to the 0.80% before the deployer hands it over?
It is sent to the creator on every trade. If a send fails, it is held in pending for the creator to withdraw.
Can a ring change its causes?
No. Rings cannot be changed. A cause owner can deactivate their cause, and settlement skips inactive causes. If every cause in a ring is inactive, the pot waits.
Is the first buy at launch an advantage?
It buys at the opening price in the same transaction, which anyone watching the mempool can see. It is public and pays the same 2.00% fee.
Terms
The site is an interface to public smart contracts. It has no backend, no accounts, and stores nothing about you except what you choose to cache in your own browser. Using it means you accept that transactions are irreversible, that contracts are provided as-is without warranty, and that you are responsible for complying with the laws that apply to you. zkBNB does not custody funds, does not operate a relayer, and cannot reverse, pause or censor pool transactions.
