Successor to Zed Run (shut down Feb 2025); itself ended May 24, 2026 after 8 seasons — IP moving to casino-native racing with Clutch; horses don't transfer, withdrawal window open. The registry's first gambling-pivot ending.
Status note: ZED Champions' competitive format closed May 24, 2026 after its eighth and final season. The ZED IP continues in a casino-native racing product built with Clutch (launch date TBD); existing ZED Champions horses do NOT transfer — players get launch perks/reward bonuses instead. The platform remains live for an extended period for wallet withdrawals and support. Official: https://help.zedchampions.com/articles/574610-zed-x-clutch-faq
