GalaSwap Opens Trading on ZRO, SBB, QNT and CARV

In Brief:

• Four new tokens — ZRO, SBB, QNT and CARV — are now live on GalaSwap, the decentralized exchange Gala runs on GalaChain, with trading available via links.gala.com/swap.
• The additions come roughly seven days after the Aug. 3 debut of SAND, ETHFI, ICNT and WKAS, continuing a listing rhythm Gala has maintained through most of 2026.
• Every round pulls more outside assets onto GalaChain, which Gala frames as a general-purpose utility chain holding cross-chain liquidity rather than a network built solely for games.

Gala has brought four additional tokens onto GalaSwap, making ZRO, SBB, QNT and CARV tradable on the GalaChain decentralized exchange.

“You can now trade ZRO, SBB, QNT, and CARV directly on our decentralized exchange. Dive into the GalaChain experience today!” the company wrote in an X post, directing users to links.gala.com/swap.

Beyond that announcement, Gala shared nothing about the four pairs — no liquidity numbers, and no incentives tied specifically to this batch.

A weekly rhythm

The new listings follow a cadence Gala has kept up for months. Aug. 3 saw SAND, ETHFI, ICNT and WKAS go live. Before that, IRYS, AAVE, CARDS and MERL launched July 30, with ESTG, CVX, AI and COW landing a few days ahead of them.

A bigger batch of eight came on June 29: FET, AAVE, ARB, ONDO, CRV, ETHFI, JTO and GRASS. MOCA, IOTX, AXL, JUPUSD and USAT were among the tickers added in earlier rounds this year.

Batches have consistently run between four and eight tickers. The announcement format never varies either — an X post carrying a link to the swap interface.

What’s in the batch

QNT belongs to Quant Network, the company behind Overledger, an API-based system for linking separate blockchains that targets banks and asset managers. On Aug. 6 the token changed hands at $59.15, giving it a market cap of $860,530,050 and 24-hour volume of $5,829,752, with 12,072,700 tokens circulating against a max supply of 14.88 million.

ZRO comes from LayerZero, a messaging protocol that shuttles data across chains such as Ethereum, BNB Chain, Avalanche, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism and Aptos. LayerZero does not count GalaChain among its supported networks, and Gala’s bridge is a proprietary build that operates independently of LayerZero’s messaging layer.

Market cap for ZRO stands at about $292.5 million. The token’s upcoming unlock will release 25.71 million units — roughly 2.6% of total supply, worth in the region of $21.27 million at current prices.

Bridging happens elsewhere

Assets arrive on GalaChain by way of GalaConnect, a distinct product covering bridging, wrapping, transfers and asset management. It works with MetaMask and WalletConnect on Ethereum, Phantom on Solana, TonConnect on TON and the Gala wallet on GalaChain. From there, trades are routed into GalaSwap.

Bridges to Solana, TON and Ethereum went live earlier this year — a considerable expansion from the exchange’s beginnings, when the only trades possible were between Ethereum-based tokens within Gala’s own ecosystem.

The venue’s mechanics have been reworked as well. GalaSwap started life as an on-chain order book without partial fills: a user posted a trade and someone else took it whole. Today it operates as a concentrated liquidity AMM, where liquidity providers collect a cut of each swap that passes through their range.

The volume math

As of March 19, Gala reported 476,000 transactions on GalaSwap and cumulative volume above $72 million, with more than 60 tokens supported. Total value locked is around $10.8 million, off roughly 5%, while annualized fees come in near $1.9 million.

Listings drive those figures. Additional assets create additional pairs, which route more volume and generate more fees — and a community vote shifted GalaChain onto a tokenomics model that burns a portion of network fees and hands the remainder to ecosystem participants.

Underpinning the buildout is a $2 million ecosystem incentive program designed to funnel on-chain activity into GalaSwap and GalaPump. Gala’s stated aim is for GalaChain to serve as a general utility chain carrying cross-chain liquidity, not a games-only network.

Bringing on assets such as AAVE, CRV and ONDO reflects that ambition. Wrapped majors, not game tokens, already account for the bulk of GalaSwap’s volume — GWETH/GWBTC leads all pairs with about $411,500 traded over 24 hours.

Depending on tier, pools levy a protocol fee of 0.05%, 0.3% or 1%, alongside a network fee paid in GALA. Users see both in the quote before signing.
