What is Zap?

Zap aims to create a decentralized network providing data for various industries, including finance, insurance, real estate, and shipping. It focuses on building a source-agnostic oracle network that assures the secure creation of oracles, facilitating the integration of global data with distributed applications.

The project includes incentivization for the creation and curation of oracles through a decentralized data marketplace. Additionally, Zap intends to support the development of embedded decentralized applications (Dapps) within the Ethereum ecosystem, serving as a foundational element for these applications. Specific founding details, such as the founding year and founder names, are not provided.
