Figures are indicative and dated. Confirm the current terms on the platform before acting.
No. Costs come from a creator fee set per market, a swap fee set per pool, price impact, and a network fee. We could not confirm a single protocol wide trading fee, so read the live values on each market. As of February 2026.
A percentage the market creator attaches to each taken order, deducted in ZTG. The protocol example uses one percent, but the rate varies by market because the creator sets it. As of February 2026.
The base currency is ZTG, which is also used for network transaction fees and for dispute resolution on the protocol. As of February 2026.
Trading runs through automated pools, so your order moves the price along a curve. In a thin pool that slippage can be your biggest cost, larger than the stated fees.
It is an onchain protocol without United States registration, so access from the United States is contested and carries added risk. We do not link to it. Check your own position before acting. As of February 2026.
This page describes Zeitgeist as we assess it. Platform mechanics, fees, and terms change, so verify the current detail before you rely on it.
