What is the $Zion and the Ecosystem?
$Zion is a Cross-Project utility token that is configured to be one of Solana’s strongest tokens in terms of adoption. $Zion brings utility to each project uniquely and thus can provide holders with an unlimited range of use cases for the token in a cross-project environment.
$Zion can be earned by staking, airdrops, rewards systems, P2E, and many more, each project has free range to distribute and utilise $Zion to their liking and project needs.
The concept behind $Zion is to build strength through adoption with multiple strong projects.
The $Zion Ecosystem is an ecosystem of crypto projects that are united through the common adoption of the $Zion token within the project.
What are the benefits of $Zion
- Each project that onboards $Zion bolsters the ecosystem further by adding to the liquidity pool and protecting the token from price impacts
- Allows for a multiplying effect and greater passive income across all projects involved which facilitates growth in all projects that associate with $Zion
- $Zion is built to last and built to provide communities with a strong and heavily backed token for their reward structures and income whilst also facilitating real-world and web3.0 use cases
Multiple projects are using $Zion as their token, this document will go through them one by one to explain what they are, what the benefits are, and potential ROI.
You can Swap $Zion for SOL and vice-versa via Raydium and buy $Zion via Dexlab.
Cat Cartel
Most importantly we need to start with Cat Cartel, the founders of $Zion.
Cat Cartel is a lore backed project (click here for the full story) and future metaverse project, at the centre of which is $Zion. It’s made up of ‘three notorious Cartels; the Los Zoras, Sicarios and the Halcones. Every minted cat will have an allegiance to one of these 3 cartels’
The ecosystem is based on ‘Rezion city which is already, paid, built, and inhabited in the metaverse through ‘Earth 2’.
The first project, Cat Cartel consisted of 5,555 cats. The reward for staking consists of 20 $Zion per day (based on holding for 7 consecutive days).
Next up is Cartel Kittens, these were provided as a free airdrop to holders of three Cats. Holding these provides future whitelists to CC projects and a multiplier of $Zion output on staked cats.
Finally, we have Mutant Cats. These act as an expansion into the project’s lore and timeline (part of Roadmap 3.0). Mutant Cats possess dynamic $Zion outputs when staked, some can earn 8 Zion per day, up to 50 $Zion per day. Mutant Cats will have future breeding abilities as well
Cat Cartel is at the heart of $Zion and everything is built around its ecosystem and lore.

Cursed Labs
Cursed Labs is a hugely exciting part of the $Zion ecosystem, it’s a blockchain-based company that merges Web 3.0 services with real World business use cases and utilities. Founded by experienced real estate professionals, they plan to purchase/lease rental properties which will generate revenue for Cursed Labs and our $ZION liquidity pool (they already have purchased 15, which can be seen in their discord server).
It’s a proven business model for them and they are now offering it to the $Zion ecosystem. They aim to reward the holders of the Cursed Labs NFT with 80% of the profits while the remaining 20% will go to the dev team and a revolving fund. Cursed Labs will run on the rental arbitrage model, via established platforms such as Airbnb. The ambition is to have 30 properties within 90 days of the mint date (March 30th).
Cursed Labs is made up of multiple tokens and NFTs and offers daily $Zion as well as USD payout via their rental apartments.
Cursed Labs daily $Zion payout:
Access to the Cursed Labs DAO is via the Cursed Labs Token NFT. Being part of the DAO offers numerous benefits, such as priority access to future projects, DAO voting rights, 100% — 400% $Zion multiplier, future airdrops, and rental property discounts (further information can be found in their Black paper).
