About 0G (0G)

What is Zero Gravity (0G) in crypto?

Zero Gravity (0G) is a modular AI Layer-1 blockchain designed as a decentralized AI operating system. It merges execution, storage, compute, and data availability into a verifiable on-chain stack. Unlike general-purpose blockchains, it’s built for AI workloads like inference and dataset storage. So why does 0G matter? It aims to become the infrastructure layer for decentralized artificial intelligence.

How is the 0G token allocated?

The supply is fixed at 1 billion tokens. Distribution favors ecosystem growth and participants: 28% for ecosystem programs, 15% for AI Alignment Node sales, and 13% for community rewards. The team, contributors, and advisors receive 22%, while backers also hold 22%. That balance shows a strong tilt toward adoption and community incentives.

When do 0G token unlocks begin?

At the Token Generation Event (TGE), about 21.32% of supply unlocked — roughly 213.2M tokens tied to community categories. Team and backer allocations are locked for 12 months, then vest monthly over 36 months (full release at 48 months). AI Alignment Node rewards also unlock gradually, with penalties if withdrawn too early. The idea is to slow down sell pressure and align long-term incentives.

Who backed Zero Gravity’s fundraising?

0G has raised around $357M across multiple rounds. Hack VC led both the $35M pre-seed (Mar 2024) and the $40M seed (Nov 2024). A $250M SAFT purchase agreement was secured by the 0G Foundation. Delphi Digital, OKX Ventures, Samsung Next, Animoca Brands, Alliance DAO, Bankless Ventures, Alchemy, P2 Ventures, and Polygon’s Sandeep Nailwal also participated. It’s one of the most diverse investor rosters in the AI-crypto sector.

What fundraising events stood out?

Two highlights: the $250M SAFT commitment and the community-driven Node Sale. The Node Sale in November 2024 raised about $32.2M across multiple tiers, with nearly 85,000 nodes sold to around 8,500 operators. That level of retail and institutional engagement suggests a broad confidence in 0G’s model.

Has Zero Gravity run any airdrops?

Yes. A September 2025 campaign opened registration for a community airdrop. Eligibility included testnet participants, Discord contributors, NFT holders, and Kaito Yappers. Wallet snapshots were announced for early September, with claims expected later that month. KYC is required for participants, marking it as a compliance-aware distribution.

Is 0G trading on exchanges yet?

Not officially. 0G is still in premarket phase with no confirmed CEX or DEX spot listings. The primary pairs expected are 0G/USDT and possibly 0G/USD after mainnet launch. Binance did introduce a 0GUSDT perpetual futures contract as a pre-market product, but official spot markets will follow TGE. It’s worth noting: IOU-style markets shouldn’t be confused with real liquidity.

What does the 0G token do?

The 0G coin is used as gas for the chain, for staking and validator rewards, and to pay for storage and data availability fees. It also covers decentralized compute and serving layers. On top of that, governance rights are tied to the token. Simply put: the ecosystem can’t function without it.

What’s on the roadmap for Zero Gravity?

The roadmap points to a mainnet launch and TGE in late 2025. Testnets (Newton, Galileo) have already processed hundreds of millions of transactions, with Galileo hitting 2,500+ TPS. Future phases focus on horizontal sharding (100k TPS per shard), transferable AI agents, and consumer-grade AI training. Long-term, the project is chasing verifiable AI with millisecond latency.
