FAQ

Questions readers keep asking.

Is there a Zeitgeist app to download?

Not in the consumer sense. Zeitgeist is reached through a web interface connected to a compatible wallet, rather than a separate download dedicated to prediction markets.

How do I access it?

You connect a self custody wallet that works with the Polkadot ecosystem to the web interface and trade from your own funds. There is no fiat deposit through a company and no broker holding your balance.

What is the ZTG token used for?

ZTG is the native token. It pays network transaction fees, is used in governance, serves as the base asset in many markets, and acts as collateral for functions such as creating markets, selecting oracles, and joining the dispute court.

Is Zeitgeist regulated?

No. It is a decentralized protocol and is not registered as an exchange with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission or any other national financial regulator. There is no federal oversight, no segregated customer fund protection, and no regulator to escalate a complaint to.

Can US residents use it?

The interface can be reached with a wallet, but reachability is not legal availability. The status of using an unregistered decentralized prediction market is unclear for US persons. Verify your own position before acting, as of February 2026.
