Horizen is a privacy-first blockchain platform designed to enable developers and enterprises to build secure decentralized applications with advanced on-chain selective disclosure technology. It operates as an appchain on Base, an Ethereum Layer 2, and supports confidential trading, DeFi, and privacy-preserving applications that comply with regulatory requirements. Horizen’s native token, ZEN, now exists as an ERC-20 token on Base, facilitating confidential DeFi, governance, and ecosystem growth with improved liquidity and lower costs.

The platform addresses the challenge of maintaining privacy in decentralized applications by allowing users and developers to prove facts or share data without exposing sensitive information. This is achieved through zero-knowledge proofs and trusted execution environments, enabling trust without compromising privacy. Horizen targets individual users, developers, and financial institutions seeking to build or use privacy-enabled dApps that can scale securely and comply with regulations.

Horizen’s migration to Base unlocks interoperability with the Ethereum ecosystem and access to a broader developer community. It provides RPC endpoints, block explorers, and comprehensive documentation to facilitate integration and development. The platform supports confidential DeFi protocols, privacy-preserving governance, and applications across sectors such as gaming and AI tools. Developers can get started by claiming migrated ZEN tokens on Base, using the provided SDKs and RPC endpoints, and leveraging the privacy tools documented in the official resources.
