# ZX

ZX will be a Solana rollup built to scale the trading experience. Settlement and consensus (data availability) will exist on the native Solana L1, whilst execution will be handled by an off-chain zkVM compatible matching engine. While perpetuals trading remains our primary focus, ZX is designed with the flexibility to facilitate a broader range of functionalities found across today's DeFi applications such as borrow-lend and spot trading.

### Core Features

* **High Throughput**: Capable of processing up to 10,000 transactions per second (TPS).
* **Speed**: Latency will be competitive with leading platforms like Binance with soft-confirmations ranging between 3-5 milliseconds.
* **User Experience**: Seamless, one-click trading, eliminating the need for users to sign each transaction.
* **Capital Efficiency**: Supports trading with up to 50x leverage with multiple forms of collateral.
* **Proof of Reserves**: On-chain transparency of the funds held by the exchange smart contract at all times.&#x20;
* **Verifiability and transparency**: ZX blocks will be publicly available for full node access on Solana L1 and have a trustless verification and dispute process.
* **REST/Websocket API**: A developer experience on par with centralised venues.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.zeta.markets/zeta-x/zeta-x-litepaper/zx.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
