Zebec Network

Zebec Network is a payments-focused project built primarily on Solana, offering real-time payroll, on-chain payment infrastructure, and a card programme. ZBCN is the network's token. The project's central idea is continuous streaming payments, where value moves second by second rather than in discrete periodic transfers.

How Zebec works

A payment stream is set up as a contract that releases funds progressively over a defined period. For payroll, this means an employee accrues earnings continuously and can withdraw at any point rather than waiting for a pay cycle. The same primitive can be applied to subscriptions, vesting schedules, and contractor payments. Zebec has extended this into merchant and card products, allowing balances to be spent, and into what it describes as a networked DePIN component.

ZBCN has a maximum supply of 100 billion tokens, and essentially the entire supply is in circulation. The token operates on Solana and also appears in categorisations covering real-world assets, payments, and DePIN. Listed backers include Coinbase Ventures and Circle Ventures.

Role in the ecosystem

Streaming payments are one of the clearer examples of a capability that is straightforward on chain and awkward in traditional banking, where transfers are discrete and settlement is batched. Zebec is among the better-known implementations of the idea and has extended from payroll into consumer-facing spending products. Its practical adoption depends on businesses being willing to run payroll through on-chain rails and on the regulatory treatment of the card and payment components in each jurisdiction. Payroll also carries obligations around tax withholding and reporting that vary by country, which shapes how far on-chain payroll can extend in practice.
