Question 1

What is ZENTORY?

Accepted Answer

ZENTORY is the first on-chain quant Signal Arena on HyperEVM. It combines non-custodial ERC-4626 Alpha Vaults with an EIP-712 signed signal registry, slashable ZENT-staked reputation, and a Ghost Portfolio that lets anyone verify the alpha each signal contributed. Deposits are held in the ERC-4626 vault contract under user-controlled shares: no exchange custody, no admin key over balances, and users redeem shares on demand.

Question 2

How is ZENTORY different from Hyperliquid's native vaults?

Accepted Answer

Hyperliquid's native vaults let a leader run a single strategy and let followers deposit; they have no separate signal-registry layer, no per-signal EIP-712 attestation, no cross-vault reputation token, and no Hold/Ghost/Actual attribution. ZENTORY adds a SignalRegistry contract, ZENT-staked accuracy scoring in 4-hour epochs, a mandate-bounded StrategyExecutor, and a Ghost Portfolio that proves how much alpha each signal contributed.

Question 3

How is ZENTORY different from Numerai?

Accepted Answer

Numerai runs an opaque hedge-fund structure: stakers buy NMR to back predictions, but no public vault exists that retail can deposit into and no on-chain trade trail is published. ZENTORY's signals execute directly against ERC-4626 vaults that any HyperEVM user can deposit into, with every signal EIP-712 time-stamped on-chain and every trade attributable via the Ghost Portfolio.

Question 4

How is ZENTORY different from eToro or Bitget Copy?

Accepted Answer

eToro, Bitget Copy, Bybit Copy and similar custody user assets to execute mirror trades on a centralized exchange. ZENTORY is non-custodial: vault assets sit in an ERC-4626 contract, the StrategyExecutor smart contract enforces position and leverage limits in Solidity, and the user can withdraw at any time without permission.

Question 5

How is ZENTORY different from Yearn or Beefy?

Accepted Answer

Yearn and Beefy publish an APY without an honest comparison to holding the underlying. ZENTORY's Ghost Portfolio tracks HOLD (passive baseline), GHOST (signal path at signed prices), and ACTUAL (real NAV) in parallel, so every vault can prove exactly how much alpha it generated and where execution slippage occurred.

Question 6

Is ZENT a security?

Accepted Answer

ZENT is designed as a utility and governance token. It is used for signal staking, conviction weighting, access tiers, veZENT governance, and fee payment. It is not a share of vault revenue, not yield-bearing intrinsically, and not equity. The buyback-and-burn allocation is funded by protocol fees as a supply-management mechanism, not as a distribution to holders.

Question 7

Why HyperEVM?

Accepted Answer

HyperEVM crossed $2.8B TVL with 175+ teams building on it in 2025-2026, and Hyperliquid is one of the deepest on-chain perp venues by volume. That combination makes HyperEVM the first L1 where a non-custodial, on-chain signal market can plausibly be settled at scale.

Question 8

Where can I see the contracts?

Accepted Answer

The Solidity protocol lives at github.com/Zentory-Labs/zentory-protocol with 26 contracts grouped by subsystem (token, vaults, staking, fees, execution, signals, governance) and 18 Foundry test files including fuzz and invariant suites. The dApp is at app.zentorylabs.com and the canonical whitepaper is at zentorylabs.com/whitepaper.
