Mainnet
The value-bearing network. It is not live. Nothing on this site should be read as an offer relating to it.

tZROAR has no monetary value and the Testnet may be reset at any time.
How we work
Principles we hold ourselves to.
Independent
The Foundation is not a product team, a validator or a token issuer. Its only mandate is the health of the network and its ecosystem.
Open by default
Criteria, decisions, milestones and disbursements are published. What stays private is private by written policy — reviewer identities and applicant personal data.
Honest about status
The Testnet is a test network. Tokens have no monetary value and the chain may reset. We say so everywhere, and we never present a planned network as live.
Latest from the ecosystem
Questions, answered
What is the Zroarus Foundation?
The independent steward of the Zroarus ecosystem. It funds open-source tooling, infrastructure, research and education; supports the move to community-run validation; publishes security advisories; and reports on what it does with its resources.
Is the Foundation the same as the team that builds Zroarus?
No. The Foundation operates independently from any single company, validator or team building on Zroarus. Its mandate is the long-term health of the network and the ecosystem, not any one product or token.
Is the Zroarus network live?
The Zroarus Testnet is live and open to builders. Mainnet is planned and is not live; no chain details are published for it until it exists.
Do Testnet tokens (tZROAR) have any value?
No. tZROAR is a test token with no monetary value, and the Testnet is a test network that may be reset at any time. Never buy or sell it.
