ZORA is the native token of the Zora Network — a decentralized, creator-first NFT and media marketplace built on the Base blockchain. Designed to put media onchain, Zora empowers artists, communities, and developers to mint, list, and trade digital content directly, without relying on centralized intermediaries or high fees. As a decentralized NFT platform, Zora supports permissionless minting and open auctions, giving creators full control over their work and economics. Every action — from minting to collecting — happens transparently on-chain, and the network supports a growing ecosystem of media apps, minting tools, and community marketplaces. Zora runs its own Ethereum Layer 2, built with the OP Stack, which allows for low-cost, high-throughput NFT interactions. Zora’s infrastructure is fully EVM-compatible and open-source, encouraging developers to build apps for media and culture directly on-chain. Thousands of NFTs are minted on Zora daily, ranging from art drops and memes to music, writing, and digital collectibles. As the protocol evolves, it aims to become the foundational layer for the decentralized media economy, where content is free to flow, and creators retain ownership, visibility, and value from their work.
