Learn more about Tezos:
Tezos (XTZ)
Tez (XTZ) is the native token of the Tezos network. Tezos is an open-source, Liquid Proof of Stake blockchain network. As a Layer 1 protocol, on Tezos developers can create powerful applications using tools that support a variety of programming languages such as Javascript, Golang, and Python. Game developers, music labels, NFT artists, sporting franchises, central banks, real estate developers, global NGOs, and more are all building on Tezos.
Tezos also has a growing DeFi ecosystem with ERC-20 bridges for low-gas cross-chain utility, yield farming protocols, and AMM platforms. Its modular architecture and upgrade mechanism minimizes disruptions while offering regular upgradability and enhanced functionality over time. Upgrades on Tezos are made possible by its proven on-chain governance where continuous improvements are proposed by participants on the network, voted on, adopted, and deployed without the need to rely on hard forks. So far, Tezos has undergone six network upgrades to reduce gas fees, improve token standards, increase transaction speed, and more.
