This swap represents a significant technical upgrade designed to improve scalability, transparency, and overall user experience within the GameFi ecosystem.
This article covers how the $DERC to $ZERC token swap works, what security and utility improvements it brings, and what zkRace has planned for its full game launch.
zkRace Unveils $DERC to $ZERC Token Swap
Details of Token Swap
The token swap is scheduled for May 21 at 10 AM UTC. All $DERC tokens held on supported centralized exchanges—including KuCoin, Gate.io, Crypto.com, and Bitget—will automatically convert to $ZERC without requiring manual action from holders.
$DERC tokens deposited in in-game wallets on zkrace.com will also swap automatically. zkRace will provide step-by-step instructions to ensure a smooth transition for all community members.

Bridging and Staking
After the swap, zkRace will launch new bridges to the BNB and Polygon chains, along with LP staking farms to expand $ZERC token utility and accessibility.
These updates set the stage for zkRace's full game launch, which will include an in-game Marketplace, Free Trial Mode, NFT Jockeys & Silks, and Community Owned Hippodromes. The platform is positioning itself for a broader push into blockchain horse racing.
zkRace has integrated the Lossless Aegis solution to protect token contracts and prevent exploits. $ZERC will function as the primary in-game currency, power the zkRace layer 2 zk-rollup Validium solution, and grant early access to upcoming releases within the W3Forge ecosystem.
