📌 About ZIL and Governance ZIL (gZIL) token

Zilliqa is the first public blockchain platform to successfully use sharding as a scaling solution. Previously, when listing ZIL token we’ve told about the project in our blog post: https://a192dd6325a834ccda99579495ff9e06-2a31b0c30bd5e3b6.elb.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/news/cex-io-to-list-zilliqa-22641

Government ZIL (gZIL) is ZRC-2 compliant token. Users can earn the new token alongside ZIL staking rewards (0.001 gZIL per 1 ZIL reward earned). The main idea of gZIL tokens is to attract long-term token holders and give them access to network governance.

Currently, at CEX.IO, ZIL holders receive staking rewards in ZIL tokens only. However, we’re looking into the possibility to enable staking rewards in gZIL too. When that happens, we’ll make an announcement on our social media channels.

 

📌 Use cases for gZIL

According to the team behind Zilliqa, there will be a DAO-like structure through which gZIL holders can invest in community projects. Together with Zilliqa Research, the community holding gZILs will be able to vote on proposals and take part in making decisions.

gZIL holders can also contribute to Zilliqa liquidity pools and get rewarded.

The Government ZIL was released since the launch of the non-custodial ZIL staking (October 14, 2020), but only for 1 year. In addition, the maximum gZIL supply is limited to 722,700. The team hopes to drive the gZIL value by creating scarcity and stimulate early user engagement in the staking program.

Note: gZIL is currently unavailable for US residents.
