Zoth

Zoth

2.4/5 0.0/5 · Data verified on

Zoth is an infrastructure protocol for compliant tokenization and on-chain settlement of real-world assets (T-bills, sovereign debt, MMFs), with an end-to-end service (FAAST) and an RWA-backed stablecoin (ZeUSD, a CDP collateralized by high-quality RWAs). It raised a $2.5M seed (Blockchain Founders Fund, Borderless Capital and others). In March 2025 the protocol suffered two exploits totaling about $8.85M drained, the second due to a compromise of its deployer wallet and a malicious proxy-contract upgrade: a serious security precedent to weigh heavily.

Strengths

  • Stated partnerships with players such as Bakkt and MANTRA for payments and distribution of tokenized offerings.
  • No notable sovereignty advantage documented.

Weaknesses

  • Serious security precedent: two hacks in March 2025 for ~$8.85M, including theft of the deployer key.
  • Early-stage and undercapitalized (a $2.5M seed); no documented license. B2B infrastructure, not for consumers.
  • Custodial: the platform holds your funds and can freeze or lose them.

FAQ

Is Zoth safe after the 2025 hack?

Zoth suffered two exploits in March 2025 for about $8.85M, one caused by a compromise of the deployer wallet. The protocol announced a rebuild, but the precedent remains a material security risk to weigh.

Can an individual use Zoth?

Zoth is infrastructure aimed at institutions and issuers to tokenize RWAs; it is not a product built for retail end consumers.
