Pre-Live

Pre-live nodes mark the entry point for KOLs and influencers into the Zeebu ecosystem. These nodes start in a Pre-Live state, awaiting activation through community support, until accumulating 200,000 ZBU tokens through delegation.

Anyone can delegate ZBU tokens to a pre-live node, including the Deployer. This phase incentivizes community activation as KOLs rally their followers to support their node. While pre-live nodes don't process telecom transactions, they offer a base 25% APY to delegators, derived from providing the active service of staking their ZBU tokens to the network. This reward structure encourages early participation and long-term commitment, as longer delegation periods result in higher veZBU proportions – a key factor in future node performance.

Note: This base APY provided for the active service of delegating ZBU tokens is removed when a node becomes active(200k ZBU Delegated / Staked)! It is crucial to understand that, upon reaching the 200,000 ZBU milestone and node activation, the base 25% APY provided for the active service of delegating ZBU tokens is replaced and are instead rewarded with any APY redirected to them by the Deployer to which they delegate, resulting from the active service of processing telecom transactions.
