Stable Value for Zimbabwe’s Digital Economy
ZiGX is a USDC-pegged, reserve-backed digital settlement instrument designed for value transfer within the ZimX ecosystem. Every ZiGX in circulation is backed at least one-to-one by eligible reserve assets, with USDC as the initial and primary reserve asset.
Key Facts
Built on four commitments.
Reserve-Backed
Backed at least one-to-one by eligible reserve assets, with USDC as the initial and primary reserve asset. Over-collateralisation policy target of 102-105%. No fractional reserve. No algorithmic backing.
USD Parity
Designed for stable value referenced to the US Dollar. A settlement instrument, not a speculative asset.
Institutional Custody
Reserves designed to be held with third-party institutional custodians, fully segregated from operating funds. Custody arrangements under evaluation.
Multi-Signature Governance
Reserve operations require multi-signature approval. No single person can move reserves unilaterally.
How It Works

Reserves Deposited
Value is deposited into institutional custody. Compliance verification completed.
