ZetaChain Moves ZETA and Anuma to Solana

| panewslab.com
ZetaChain token holders have approved the migration of ZETA and its flagship AI application Anuma to Solana, followed by a gradual shutdown of the ZetaChain Layer 1. The proposal passed with 99.4% approval and 58% voter participation. ZetaChain said the move marks a broader pivot from cross-chain interoperability to private AI. Anuma combines multiple AI models with portable user memory, allowing users to retain preferences and project context when switching models. The project is also developing model routing, privacy infrastructure, permissioned memory sharing and x402-based payments for third-party applications and AI agents. Native ZETA is expected to convert to a Solana SPL token on a 1:1 basis. Its 2.1 billion total supply and existing vesting schedule are expected to remain unchanged. ZETA issued on Ethereum and BNB Chain is excluded. A second proposal will determine the shutdown date, snapshot block, claims process, exchange coordination, staking and rewards. Anuma reportedly reached about 306,900 wallets and 1.27 million inference requests by 22 September. ZetaChain’s proposed ZETA Access system would link token locking to AI usage credits. ZETA rose more than 40% after the initial vote and traded near $0.05, but traders must weigh the bullish Solana and AI narrative against migration execution, uncertain token utility, user retention, developer adoption and whether AI revenue can cover inference costs.
Bullish
The immediate price reaction is bullish: ZETA gained more than 40% after holders approved the migration, while the Solana ecosystem and AI narrative may attract renewed speculative demand. A 1:1 conversion, unchanged supply and preserved vesting schedule could reduce dilution concerns. However, the long-term outlook is less certain. ZETA will lose its role as the ZetaChain Layer 1 gas token, and key details on snapshots, exchange conversions, staking, rewards and the shutdown timeline remain unresolved. Traders may also sell the news if the migration is delayed or if Anuma fails to generate sustained user and developer demand. The bullish classification therefore reflects the positive short-term catalyst, not a confirmation of durable fundamental value.
