Horizen is a decentralized, scalable blockchain platform designed to support a wide range of applications, focusing on privacy and interoperability.
Horizen is a blockchain platform that stands out for its emphasis on scalability, privacy, and interoperability. With its sidechain architecture known as Zendoo, Horizen allows developers to build customizable blockchains and decentralized applications (dApps) tailored to specific use cases. This platform is built for scalability, offering developers a flexible and decentralized environment to create applications without compromising security or privacy. Horizen also supports zero-knowledge technology, enhancing the privacy of transactions and data on the network.
Horizen’s Zendoo protocol enables the creation of independent sidechains, allowing developers to design applications with customizable features and scalability, without impacting the performance of the mainchain.
With zero-knowledge proofs integrated into its architecture, Horizen offers strong privacy for both transactions and data. Developers can build privacy-focused applications that maintain security and confidentiality.
Horizen provides robust support for interoperability, ensuring that dApps and sidechains can communicate effectively within the broader blockchain ecosystem.
