As one of the representatives of the flow payment track, Zebec Protocol is developing rapidly. Zebec has released the Zebec Chain solution based on the Zk-Rollup streaming payment public chain, basically completed the migration to the BNB Chain, and has issued the BEP 20 standard $ZBC token, and will launch the streaming payment function soon .

At the same time, in addition to many Web3 partners, Zebec has also acquired 5 Web2 payment companies with over 10,000 users, and plans to expand more partners in 2023.

Q1 Can you give us a brief introduction about Zebec Protocol?

Founded in 2021, the Zebec protocol is the world's first on-chain salary flow payment product with tax functions, and it is also the ecology with the fastest progress and the highest degree of commercialization in the current flow payment track ecology.

Previously, we launched Zebec Pay, the first application built on Zebec Protocol. Employers can use Zebec Pay to pay employees in the form of encrypted currency (stable currency such as USDC) at a low cost in the form of flow payment, and it is widely used The application has compliance features, and users can allocate part of their salary to compliant encrypted IRA and 401k accounts for retirement and other purposes.

At present, Zebec has released the solution of the Zk-Rollup-based flow payment public chain Zebec Chain, which reveals the main advantages of the public chain in privacy protection, high burst and compliance, and facilitates the integration of flow payment features for more web3 ecological applications. It will be officially launched in Q3 of 2023.

Q2 What achievements has Zebec made before? Who are the partners in the field of Web2 and Web3?

Previously, about 1/3 of Solana projects used the Zebec system to pay wages, and more than 250 projects were built on top of Zebec, which once created the largest ecosystem on the Solana chain. Zebec Protocol's early users have reached 30,000+, and without any pledge mining, TVL has exceeded 300 million US dollars.

Only in 2022, Zebec will achieve a revenue of 20 million US dollars, bringing a net profit of 2 million to 6 million US dollars to the ecology, and it is expected to achieve a revenue of 40 million to 50 million US dollars within one year (to August 2023), and bring more considerable net profit. Additionally, Zebec Protocol plans to launch its own stablecoin when revenue reaches $1 trillion.

Currently, Zebec Protocol's Web3 partners include ARB, Synchrony, Francium, Mirror World, HalkSight, Drippies, Rewards Bunny, Aver Exchange, Moonlana, etc.

Currently, through cooperation with Rewards Bunny, Zebec Protocol has indirectly cooperated with more than 1,000 Web2 companies including ebay, alibaba, travel, and booking.com, and has created cash flow income and profits.

Q3 At present, the Zebec ecology is developing towards a multi-chain system, so what is the current overall progress?

At present, we are migrating to ecological expansion other than Solana. We are currently the first to expand to the EVM chain. BNB Chain is the first stop for our ecological expansion and migration.

At present, Zebec Protocol has basically completed the migration to BNB Chain, and has issued BEP 20 standard $ZBC tokens, and will launch the stream payment function soon. In addition, Zebec has reached specific cooperation with some projects on BNB Chain, and will start related business soon.

At present, we have received support from the BNB Chain community in terms of users and technology. The official tweet of BNB Chain has mentioned us many times. At the same time, we have also received the support of this ecological head project. For example, PancakeSwap took the lead in cooperating with us , and will list $ZBC tokens on their "syrup pool" in the near future. We are also reaching cooperation with many high-quality partners on the BNB Chain to promote the rapid development of our ecology on the BNB Chain.

Q4 We see that Zebec has ushered in a group of new partners under the multi-chain layout. Can you briefly disclose it for us?

Q5 What are the technical characteristics of Zebec Chain, and how can these characteristics help the development of the ecology?

Based on Eclipse, Zebec launched a new Rollup chain, Zebec Chain, to further build its own flow payment ecosystem. Based on Zk-Rollup, Zebec system is expected to further achieve higher transaction efficiency, user load, system burst, and lower Even transaction frictions that can be ignored. At the same time, Zk-Rollup further endows Zebec with native cryptography-based privacy features to match the needs of various business scenarios in the future.

Eclipse itself is a blockchain development tool that allows developers to easily deploy code as customizable Rollups (especially supports the use of Solana VM to customize modular Rollups). The Eclipse execution layer inherits the characteristics of Solana's execution layer, including such as Solana's EVM (packet filter or eBPF), parallel processing of transactions (Sealevel) and streaming payments will enable Solana dApps to enter multi-chains and access inter-blockchain communication, and data on the original Solana will be able to Adopted directly by way of communication.

This means that Zebec builds the Rollup layer through Eclipse, and is expected to build more programmable ecosystems centered on flow payment, which is expected to bring flow payment features to developers in a native way. At the same time, as Layer 2, the Rollup layer is expected to further realize the interaction with Solana, so as to reduce the threshold brought by migration. As Zebec expands to more Layer 1 ecology, it is expected to further help the ecology to achieve better expansion.

Q6 Zepoch nodes are important verifiers of Zebec Chain, so can you introduce us to the potential benefits and rights of holding Zepoch nodes?

Zepoch nodes are one of the most important verifiers on Zebec Chain. They will help Zebec Chain produce blocks to verify transactions. At the same time, the more nodes there are, the more dispersed the network will be. Zepoch node sales have exceeded 1,000, and we are confident that the number of nodes will be in Exponential growth in the coming months.

From the perspective of rights and interests, becoming a Zepoch node will not only have governance rights, but also obtain many rights and interests, including: Zebec Protocol’s revenue sharing, invitation rewards, airdrop rewards, etc., and further becoming a validator on the chain is expected to obtain an additional 4% to 7% return. At present, the global payment market size is 40 trillion US dollars, and Zebec is expected to occupy about 2% of it, and the payment market will show exponential growth with the growth of market demand (especially the rise of the African market).

Q7 Can you tell us about Zebec's recent market plan?

Q8 We have seen that the $ZBC token has performed well in the market recently. What stimulated the recent strong market performance?

Recently, our market activities have been relatively frequent, such as doing AMAs in multiple communities. Many community users have reported that Zebec is one of the projects that appear in various communities and are frequently discussed. The popularity of our ecology is being opened up. In addition, we have launched liquidity-based mining and Staking with well-known platforms, which are reducing the circulation of the $ZBC market and increasing demand, which is an important factor.

Q9 Can you tell us about how it operates or circulates in these ecosystems, as well as the consumption and release mechanism?

Our Zebec fee can be controlled as much as possible between 2% and 3%. This price can generate hundreds of millions of dollars, or even billions of dollars in annual revenue for Zebec. Because we have our own visa debit card, the visa debit card should have a 5/1000 handling fee, but under normal circumstances it is in US dollars. We can probably predict that by 2026 and 2025, the overall destruction of ZBC in the ecology may reach 30% or even 50% of the ecology.

ZBC is currently a token certificate on the Zebec protocol chain. Its main gas fee is at the protocol level, which can help users solve e-commerce governance. Each transfer is basically between 1% and 3% per year.

We can expect about 1% to 2% of tokens to be completely burned. When registering a visa card, ZBC can also be burned to destroy the token.

Q10 Can you reveal the follow-up plan for ecological development for us?

It is mainly reflected in several time nodes. The plan for 2022 has basically been realized. For example, in Q4 of this year, we have supported the BNB chain, and node purchases will also be carried out through the BNB chain. In the first quarter of 2023, we will update to Expand more EVM chains, strive to launch Zebec Chain from the second quarter to the third quarter, and continue to implement more functions through Eclipse after Q3.

Of course, we also plan to expand more partners in 2023, especially some Web2 customers, and acquire 10 to 20 Web2 payment companies to expand the scope of business.
