What is Horizen?
About the coin
ZEN is the native cryptocurrency of Horizen, a network of blockchains that utilizes zero-knowledge technology. It is a mineable Proof-of-Work (PoW) coin that is traded on major exchanges like Coinbase, Bittrex, and Binance. Originally a privacy token, ZEN shifted its focus in June 2023 to prioritize adaptability and scalable growth, removing its existing privacy features.
Main features
Horizen's network is powered by the Zendoo protocol, which enables blockchain interoperability through SNARK-verification. This protocol allows for flexibility in sidechain type, consensus, and speed, supporting up to 10,000 sidechains with a throughput limit of 10,000,000 transactions per second (TPS). The network's infrastructure is supported by nearly 50,000 full nodes, and ZEN can be staked to participate in this network.
How it works
Developers can deploy blockchains within the Horizen ecosystem using various SDKs. In 2023, Horizen launched EON, a public proof-of-stake sidechain and EVM-compatible smart contracting platform. This platform allows developers to build and deploy decentralized applications (dapps) efficiently, benefiting from the Ethereum ecosystem. Since its launch, several DeFi projects have integrated into the Horizen ecosystem, including SpookySwap, Ascent Exchange, and Yuzu.
