Zexpire, a decentralized finance protocol that turns market volatility into a trading opportunity, has opened the early access round for its native token, ZX. Tokens are priced at $0.003 in the first stage, with prices rising gradually to $0.025 by the listing event.
The project introduces a simplified version of options trading built around daily volatility. Instead of predicting direction, users choose whether Bitcoin or any other crypto available will stay within a set range or break out over the course of a single day. Losses are capped at the stake, eliminating leverage risks and margin calls.
This approach makes Zexpire the first DeFi platform designed to let retail traders earn directly from volatility, a feature that has long been a source of losses. The model positions Zexpire at the intersection of two growing markets: crypto options, which average around $3 billion in daily volume, and prediction markets, which surpassed $10 billion in cumulative bets this year.
Every trade on the platform runs on ZX, which also offers staking rewards, cashback on trades, and governance rights. The tokenomics include a deflationary mechanism, with 20% of platform fees allocated to buybacks and burns. Early buyers in the sale receive additional benefits such as auto-staking of up to 15% APR until token generation, referral rewards, and access to beta testing.
Zexpire plans to release a demo version of its interface later this year, followed by smart contract deployment on Base in Q4 2025. The roadmap for 2026 includes the listing of ZX on decentralized exchanges, the launch of advanced volatility strategies, and a transition toward DAO governance.
Zexpire’s model echoes trends in traditional finance, where 0DTE (zero-day-to-expiry) contracts have grown rapidly. According to Bloomberg data, same-day expiry contracts accounted for more than 60% of S&P 500 options trading volume earlier this year.
About ZEXPIRE
ZEXPIRE is the first 0DTE DeFi protocol that enables traders to earn directly from crypto volatility through a one-click, fixed-risk prediction model. Instead of guessing direction, users only decide if Bitcoin stays in range or breaks out within the day. Losses are capped, outcomes are simple, and volatility — once the enemy — becomes the opportunity.
The ZX token powers the platform, serving as the entry ticket for every prediction. The token’s early access round is now live, with prices stepping up from $0.003 to $0.025 across 200 stages.
