ZABAL Season 2 is now live.
Season 2 marks the next phase of ZABAL as an open coordination network for builders working at the intersection of creativity, technology, and on-chain systems. The focus remains the same: participation, alignment, and building in public.
A few important changes are now in effect:
Songjam Leaderboard Boosts
Boosters from @glanker (empirebuilder) are now applied directly to the Songjam leaderboard.
If you’re stacking $ZABAL, you’re leveling up.
$SANG Minimum Stake Increased
The minimum $SANG stake has increased to 250,000.
This raises the participation bar and keeps incentives aligned as the network grows.
Fresh Season, Fresh Points
Points are now counted starting from the end of Season 1 on January 1st, 2026.
Season 2 leaderboards reflect activity from that point forward.
Early Leaders
Shoutout to the early leaders already setting the pace. Strong start.
Keep singing for the ZABAL.
For additional context, Adam from Songjam shared a breakdown of the Season 2 changes here:
ZABAL uses Empire Builder as its coordination layer.
This is where leaderboards, boosts, and treasury logic come together in a single, visible system.
You can explore the ZABAL empire directly here:

We currently have four active leaderboards powering coordination across ZABAL:
Farcaster-Only Leaderboard
This is the primary leaderboard for social growth and presence. It tracks Farcaster-native activity and highlights people contributing to ZABAL’s visibility and culture.
All Wallets Leaderboard
A broader leaderboard that includes all connected wallets, capturing on-chain participation beyond any single platform.
Songjam Season 1 Singers
A custom CSV leaderboard made up of the 69 wallets submitted during Season 1 of Songjam. This preserves early participation and ensures those contributors remain legible in the system.
ZAO Respect Holders (Manual CSV)
A manually maintained leaderboard for current ZAO Respect holders, anchoring ZABAL coordination to long-standing community alignment.
Together, these leaderboards allow ZABAL to:
Recognize different forms of contribution
Apply boosts transparently
Coordinate across social, creative, and on-chain layers
This isn’t about a single metric. It’s about making participation visible from multiple angles.
More updates coming as Season 2 unfolds.
