Examined promise
This dossier examines the documented purpose and mechanisms of native Zilliqa (ZIL) on the zilliqa-mainnet network. The objective is to assess the project's stated goals against available documentary evidence, without performing live network observation or independent operational verification.
Established facts
The pinned zq2 README describes Zilliqa 2.0 node software and procedures for running a small local network. It says at least 4 nodes are required for the described network to make progress; this local setup requirement supplies no census of present mainnet validators. Configuration uses TOML files, with duplicate keys across merged configuration files causing an error. The JSON-RPC API, an interface for software queries and operations, is disabled by default and requires an explicit configuration of enabled namespaces or methods. The source describes in-memory network tests that stub the networking layer and use API requests, as well as separate benchmark and load-test procedures. Those tests were not executed, and their existence supplies no observed throughput or mainnet reliability. Linked documentation and cloud-access helper instructions remain outside this capture. Native ZIL is the documentary subject, excluding representations on other chains.
Unknowns
Present independent control, beneficial ownership, actual usage patterns, client adoption rates, total supply distribution, token concentration, liquidity depth and the complete incident history remain unverified. No independently reviewed criterion observation has been admitted in this documentary lot regarding identity, usage, token role, supply, concentration, value capture, control, security, governance, accountability, incidents or continuity.
Consequences
The source distinguishes local development networks, in-memory tests and benchmarking procedures. Each result needs its own test conditions before it can support a conclusion about mainnet. Explicit API configuration also identifies which software interface must be checked. A repository's test instructions provide a reproducible starting point, while current reliability still needs independent observations.
Verdict
Operational strength remains unproven; unrated with 0% scoring coverage. The current evidence covers none of the essential criteria required for a score. Missing essential data includes identity, supply and control. The project is classified as unrated due to insufficient evidence coverage.
Evidence that would change it
Reproduced identity checks, independent dated network observations and criterion-specific evidence would be required to alter this status. Calibration and editorial review would follow the submission of such evidence. Until then, the unrated status stands based on the current documentary limitations.

Native ZIL is the documentary subject, excluding representations on other chains. No software, node, transaction, governance vote or benchmark was executed in this review. Current deployed versions, participant independence, economic rules, usage, supply, ownership, concentration, liquidity and the complete incident record remain independently unverified. Descriptions of architecture establish a research scope and supply no investment-return forecast or operational safety guarantee.
