Where does the ZARP supply figure come from?
Read from the ZARP contracts on every chain we track. Bridged copies are counted once.
How is the ZARP gap measured?
Its latest USD price (from its pool, or DefiLlama) is compared with the latest market rate for ZAR (Wise mid-market, from Reuters) where we have it, else the ECB reference rate. The stablecoin page, the ZAR page and the FX page use the same rate, so they show the same gap. Zero means exactly at the market rate, + means it costs more USD than the market rate, − less; 100 bps = 1%.
Why is ZARP shown in USD?
ZARP has a trading price ($0.060, from its Aerodrome Slipstream pool on Base), so its supply is shown in USD at that price.
Where does this data come from?
