Yield basis
Rate is set by Frankencoin governance, with proposed changes taking effect after seven days if unopposed. Interest applies to principal only, no compounding on accrued interest. I could not read the current live rate: the Frankencoin app and savings page are JavaScript-rendered and returned no data. DefiLlama reports an average supply APY of 2.88% across 4 Frankencoin-associated yield pools, which is an aggregate across pools and NOT the savings-module rate, so I have not entered it as the yield. source
Size
Not disclosed on any source we could read. source
Minimum
None stated
Who may hold it
Open to anyone. The docs state explicitly that no restrictions limit who can participate. source
Redemption
Withdraw at will. Deposits are fully segregated and remain under the owner's control; there is no background lending of deposited funds. A three-day delay applies before interest begins accruing on a new deposit; for subsequent deposits the delay becomes a weighted average. source
Cost to enter
Gas only. Management and performance fees are both 0%.
Transferability
Freely transferable. No allowlist at the token level.
Secondary liquidity
ZCHF is freely tradeable on DEXs and is listed on Kraken and Mt Pelerin; monthly transfer volume $318.31m per RWA.xyz. I did not obtain a specific DEX pool depth figure.

What we think you should know

The clearest genuinely permissionless CHF yield instrument that exists. ZCHF is an overcollateralised, oracle-free CHF stablecoin minted against collateral positions rather than issued by a bank or trust. The savings yield is funded out of the protocol's equity reserve (FPS holders), not from lending out deposits. Total ZCHF supply 34.18m against collateral value of 55.41m; protocol TVL $68.17m all on Ethereum; market cap ~$41-42m; 2,303 holders. Distribution: Ethereum 30.7m, Base 2.3m, Arbitrum 15.6k, Optimism 9.4k, Polygon 1.1k, Avalanche 16.67. The main gap on this row is the current savings rate.
