ZetaChain Community Approves Wind‑Down of Layer‑1 and Migration of ZETA to Solana
Proposal 68 received 99.4% approval with 58% voter participation, directing ZetaChain to shut down its native layer‑1 and move the ZETA token to the Solana blockchain, pending exchange confirmation.

ZetaChain’s governance process has concluded with a decisive vote to discontinue its native layer‑1 network and relocate the ZETA token to Solana.
Governance outcome
Proposal 68 passed with 99.4% support from participants, achieving a 58% turnout. The result mandates the wind‑down of ZetaChain’s own blockchain and the migration of its token.
Next steps for the migration
Before a second vote can set the snapshot date, claim procedures, and the final shutdown schedule, exchanges must first confirm the token swap. Once confirmed, the community will vote on the detailed timeline.
Implications for ZETA holders
- ZETA will become a token on the Solana network.
- The native ZetaChain layer‑1 will be decommissioned.
- Exchange participation is required to finalize the swap process.
