Zebec Network (ZBCN) 2026 Roadmap & Revised Tokenomics — What the Update Actually Says!

Oh, ZBCN is the governance token and utility token of uh Zbecin. Zbec, why do I keep calling it Zebecin? It's Zbec network supporting decision-making, product usage, and ecosystem incentives. Token utility is driven by governance rights, payroll, and products, fees, staking incentive, and real world spending rather than base layer transaction gas reflecting Zbec's evolution into a multi-chain and multi-product financial network. Okay. Token supply dynamics are mature and increasingly deflationary with early investors having realized returns and final unlocks scheduled. So realizing returns is kind of fancy language for early investors have taken pro uh their their I want to say products profits. Yeah. And final unlock scheduled for March 2026. Just like bankroll had said this design aligns long-term token value with network usage, governance participation and sustainable business growth. TLDDR. So core utilities include payroll product fees, staking, real world

card spend, incentive and ecosystem participation, supply contracts outpace supply expansion, resulting in negative net inflation. So negative inflation, that's what you want to hear. Powers onchain voting and ecosystem decisions unlock staking rewards and collateral into DeFi integration. Reoccurrent token buybacks are linked directly to product revenues, funds, grants for ecosystem contributors. Zbecin utility. Zbecken is a utility token whose demand is driven by real product usage and volume spanning payroll fees, super app functionality, staking incentives, and real world spending rather than transaction execution at the base protocol layer. At its core, ZBCN is the network evolution of the original Zevec protocol token known as ZBC. The transition, this must have been when they had their uh contract, you know, they changed contract. The transition to ZBCN ticker in mid 2024 reflects Zbec's expansion from payment focused protocol to Salana on Salana

into a multi-chain and multi-product financial network. ZBCN remains the exclusive native token for the Zbec network, preserving the original supply and tokconomic framework established under ZBC's while significantly expanding utility across payroll, cards, governance, and ecosystem incentives. And we talked about here's their token utility flywheel. You have community, treasury, staking, service fee, buybacks, and reward and incentive. So, payroll and product fees. The primary utility of Zbecin I why do I want to say Zebin? Zbec network. Okay, solved it. Is to settle fees required for employers to use Zbec's payroll and distribute product. Anybody else holding any of this ZBCN out there besides bankroll? All right. Institutional clients and employers using ZBEC's payroll platform are required to pay service and product fees in ZBCN. Employers may hold ZBCN directly to cover these fees or use stable coin balances which are automatically

converted into the coin at the time the fees are um assessed. This mechanism creates ongoing usage driven demand ZBCN directly ties to payroll volume and enterprise adoption. I do like that they have a business model built into it that people would use week after week, month after month. Super app fees and incentives. With the roll out of ZBEC super app, ZBCN will remain a core access and incentive asset across payroll, treasury, card, and reward functionality. Holding the holding and using ZBCN within the super app unlocks enhanced features um preerential pricing preferential pricings and reduced or eliminated fees across select products. You ever look at a word and then it just like looks like a crazy word you've never read before just randomly. These incentives apply across multiple participation paths, including holding, using, usage, and staking, creating flexibility for both

employees and employers to benefit from ZBCN without requiring a single mode of engagement. In addition, starting mid 2026, ZBCN balances impartation levels within the super app will unlock tiered rewards on ZBEC card spend with higher tier tiers receiving enhanced benefits. This structure encourages long-term alignment with the ecosystem while directly linking ZBCM participation to everyday usage. I think this is a pretty cool idea. So, Zebin card or ZBEC card. I don't know why I want to call it Zbecan so bad. It's [music] a bad habit. So, ZBCN can be used to fund all Zcards enabling real world spending in fiat at merchants globally alongside more than 150 supported tokens. Holders may spend their tokens for everyday purchases, bridging onchain value with traditional payment networks. ZBCM balances staked within the super app will unlock reward tiers for the card. Mid 2026.

Here's staking. Holders may stake tokens to earn yield. That's common. And deepen their participation in the network. That's a video that basically the same idea but for flare that's coming out tomorrow. In addition to yield and governance rights, staking contributes to higher incentive tiers within the ZBEC super app, further reducing fees and unlocking additional features and rewards. Staking is one of the several mechanisms through which users can access enhanced super app functionality uh complnting holding and active product usage. Right. So staking will transition to module within ZBEC super app from January 2026 onward with updated staking terms to be released alongside transition. DeFi collateral ZBCN may be used as collateral and supported D5 integrations enabling payrollbased uh borrowing and lending as integration expands. Network rewards and ecosystem incentives. ZBCN is used to reward participation across the ZBEC network, including

uh pilot initiatives such as Zpin, ecosystem grants for developers and integrations, and communitydriven contributions that expand network functionality. ZBCN holders may unlock reduced or zero fees on select Zbec products and product features, priority access to premium ZEC cards and programs, eligibility for partner airdrops and ecosystem incentives. That's pretty cool. innovations and exclusive Zbec hosted events and ecosystem initiatives allocation unlocks and token maturity. Zbec's early institutional and venture backers have realized significant returns on their uh initial investments and continue to support and contribute to the long-term growth of Zbec ecosystem. Yeah, let's all agree to call Zbec Zbecin. Hey, I'm all for that. Uh it's because it has the N for network at the end and it's Zbec and then I keep saying Zbec in and then it just turned into Zbecen somewhere along the way. Please forgive me. All

right, 9% in the seed round, uh 11% private realm, 20% contributors, 6% public sale, uh 4% marketing, and 50% community and rewards. Out of the total supply, it says 100 billion tokens. So, fully distributed by March 2026. This is some of the saucy stuff here. The final scheduled token unlock is set for March 2026, 4 years after the original token introduction. This milestone marks the conclusion of early stage token allocation and reflects uh ZBCN's transition into a more mature utility-driven phase of the network. Here is the unlock schedule with the 16th of March being the last on the list. Token buybacks and burns. This is always very interesting. The token buyback program initiated in late 2023 with the launch of ZBEC card program is linked is likened to product revenues across payroll cards partnership contracts. Buybacks are executed on

a regular cadence and aligned with a broader financial and operating cycle. Since the inception of the program's ZPCM buyback volume has grown at an annual rate of over 70%. With continued growth expected as the Zbec card program scales domestically across new global markets in 2026. This structure ensures that supply management remains transparent, governance, and aligned with the long-term health and success of the network. In summary, with the final tokens unlock completed, ZBCN will operate within a fully deflationary framework with token buybacks driving supply contraction and no new supply entering the market. As Zbeck's payroll platform and super app continues to scale, CBCN is expected to acquire be to be acquired by a growing number of employers and institutions to support participation in real-time payroll and payment. Bullish. I'm actually getting really bullish on this cuz I see it. in

March I guess is not that far away to be fully vested and even those little bit that's coming out not really a big deal at this governance governance ZBCN is the governance token of Zbec network I guess you would have guessed that huh enabling holders to influence strategic economic and operational decisions through a hybrid governance model that combines onchain voting with structured off-chain consultation consultation uh that's pretty standard governance stuff so here is how they are kind of a hybrid model the Zbec Dow operates under a hybrid governance framework that blends onchain transparency with off-chain consultation um and deliberation. This model allows ZBCN holders to vote directly on proposals while benefiting from prior consultation, analysis and discussions across community investors and partner groups. This approach reflects governance best practices adopted by mature crypto networks operating alongside regula regulated finance

services where proposals often span technical and commercial and compliance consideration. Let me hit governance process. Proposals may originate from community members, ecosystem contributors, partners or investors. Early stage discussions take place across the beck's official forums and communication channels. Off-chain briefings, consultations, and working sessions are summarized and published to ensure transparency and informed participation. Proposals that demonstrate sufficient engagement and alignment process to an onchain vote proceed to an onchain vote. Voting outcomes are recorded on chain and communicated publicly with approved proposals entering execution. And here you go. It's proposed. They talk about it. Elevate to a vote. The Dow actually votes and then there's an announcement about what happened. Zips, ZBec improvement proposals. That's what they call them, right? Zbec improvement proposals are typically subject to a 24-hour 7-day voting period addressing addresses with voting power may vote for Oregon's

proposals with passage determined by a simple majority. This structure ensures that governance remains transparent, inclusive, and deliberative while remaining responsive to network needs.
