ZER0
The Inevitable Convergence
TRADE ZER0
Every trade destroys supply. Forever.
OVERVIEW
A deflationary ERC-20 experiment on Ethereum mainnet via Uniswap V4 hooks
ZER0 is a fixed-supply, fair-launch ERC-20 with a single, immutable superpower: every trade through its canonical pool destroys the supply. The supply curve is one-way down forever.
The protocol charges an asymmetric swap fee on its canonical pool: 1% on buys (ETH → ZER0) and 5% on sells (ZER0 → ETH). One hundred percent of every fee, on every trade, is routed into a permanent buyback-and-burn.
Because sells are taxed five times harder than buys, distribution events contract supply five times faster than accumulation does. ZER0 only ever gets rarer.
Every transaction is a step toward zero. Inevitable. Unstoppable.
MECHANICS
How every trade destroys supply forever
On Every Buy
ETH → ZER0
→ Takes from pool to hook balance
→ Immediately burns
Supply drops by exactly 1% of the gross output the trader would otherwise have received. The hook never holds the tokens—they go straight from pool to burn furnace.
On Every Sell
ZER0 → ETH
→ Uses ETH to buyback ZER0
→ Burns bought ZER0
→ Creates buy pressure
The ETH is never held. Inside the same unlock context, the hook swaps that ETH back for ZER0 from the same pool, then burns it. Sell pressure becomes buy pressure, then vanishes.
Net effect of every trade: Supply decreases.
Buys remove ZER0. Sells remove ZER0 and apply a burst of buy-pressure on top.
The ratio is locked at 5:1 forever.
TRUST ASSUMPTIONS
Read this carefully. These are the only things you have to trust.
If the contracts compile, deploy, and the one-shot setHook link is made,
the protocol is finished and trustless.
