Project Overview
RESEARCH CONTEXT
zFi is an active DeFi project that we have begun watching, and investing in at the start of 2026. Unlike many projects we analyze, zFi contracts have verified source code on Etherscan and a public GitHub presence, which allows for direct source-level analysis rather than bytecode decompilation.
Our research covers the source code and on-chain infrastructure that we can independently verify. We document what the code does, to better our own understanding of the zFi ecosystem of services.

NOTE TO DEVELOPERS
Please do not hesitate to reach out to us if we have documented anything inaccurately, if anything is out-of-date, or in general if there is any way that we could better support the project.
zFi describes itself as a "superdapp" consolidating multiple Decentralized Finance (DeFi) functions under a single interface at zfi.wei.is. The protocol is governed by zOrg, a DAO structure handling protocol maintenance and ownership. Revenue is generated from zAMM LP mint fees and .wei domain registrations, directed to the DAO for buybacks and staker distributions.
zFi is published as the DEFI work of SRC.CO, a three-person collective that also publishes Tacit, NaniDAO, and a multisig product. DNZN tracks zFi as its own project space; see Affiliation for what that changes about attribution.
The protocol integrates several components:
- Swap (zRouter) - On-chain DEX Aggregator with deterministic route solving across Uniswap V2/V3/V4, SushiSwap, Curve, zAMM, and Lido. Zero protocol fees.
- Liquidity (zAMM) - Gas-efficient AMM singleton with ERC6909 fungible LP tokens and hybrid launchpad/orderbook functionality.
- Coins (DAICO Launchpad) - Fair launch token mechanism with automated liquidity provisioning.
- Predict (pAMM) - Prediction markets for YES/NO outcome share trading.
- Orderbook - On-chain limit orders for ERC20 pairs with partial fills and expiring orders.
- Domains (.wei Namespace) - IPFS-pinned dapp with
.weidomain resolution. - DAO (zOrg Governance) - Community governance for protocol maintenance and ownership.
- Registry (TokenList) - On-chain token registry where each listing is a soulbound ERC-721 minted to the token it describes, with identity fields read from the token rather than authored by the curator.
- Conviction (ZorgConviction) - Conviction Voting layer over the registry. Bonding a zOrgz NFT with ZORG shares and an ETH principal mints a transferable receipt that directs time-weighted support at existing listings. The resulting score is advisory: the registry's own
rankfield is set separately and is unaffected by it.

DAO buybacks and staker distributions. Gnosis Safe proxy. Configured as the holder in the Lido Harvester — downstream recipient of harvested ETH routed into ZORG share purchases. |
Tokenomics
zAMM functions as the protocol token. zOrg represents staked governance shares eligible for rewards. Revenue flows from zAMM LP mint fees and .wei domain registrations into the DAO, which allocates funds toward buybacks and staker distributions.
No detailed tokenomics breakdown has been independently verified at this time.
Observations
The contract addresses for zRouter, zAMM, pAMM, the .wei registry, the Lido Harvester, and SLOW all follow a vanity address pattern starting with 0x000000000..., suggesting deployment via CREATE2 with mined salts. This is a deliberate engineering choice for gas-efficient deterministic addressing, and is consistent across the protocol's infrastructure.
All analyzed contracts have verified source code on Etherscan with exact match status, which is a positive signal for transparency compared to unverified bytecode-only contracts.
