**Discover Tezos (XTZ): The Next-Gen Blockchain for Secure Applications and Decentralized Governance**

Tezos (XTZ) is an innovative open-source blockchain platform optimized for the development of secure assets and decentralized applications. Committed to enhancing code security and community governance, Tezos stands out with its distinctive self-amending protocol, which enables seamless upgrades without disruptions or forks. 

The recent launch of Tezos 2.0 marks a significant milestone in its evolution, focusing on improved scalability through Layer 2 solutions, and broadening its accessibility to mainstream programming languages like JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python. This versatility ensures developers can create robust smart contracts while minimizing risks associated with coding errors—making Tezos a top choice for projects demanding high security and reliability.

Tezos utilizes a unique Liquid Proof-of-Stake (LPoS) consensus mechanism, allowing all stakeholders to participate in the decision-making process. Whether through direct involvement or delegation, users can earn rewards for securing the network. What’s more, its pioneering on-chain governance model empowers stakeholders to propose and vote on protocol upgrades, fostering community engagement while driving continuous innovation.

Since its inception in 2014 and its successful launch in 2018, Tezos has maintained a proven track record of stability and technical excellence. Founded by the visionary duo Arthur and Kathleen Breitman, Tezos addresses the critical challenges faced by earlier blockchain networks, creating an ecosystem that prioritizes decentralization and user-driven governance.

Join the Tezos community and tap into the future of blockchain technology, where security meets scalability and innovation knows no bounds!

What Is Tezos (XTZ)?


Tezos is a high-performing blockchain and open-source platform for assets and applications, with a strong focus on code security, on-chain governance, and decentralization. Tezos 2.0, the upcoming step in the evolution of Tezos, aims to improve scalability (via layer 2s), composability, and to implement support to mainstream programming languages (like Javascript, Typescript, Python, and many others).


Initially built with formal verification in mind, the Tezos protocol enables builders to avoid bugs when developing smart contracts, making it particularly suited to applications that require a high degree of security and certainty.


Tezos’ LPoS (Liquid Proof-of-Stake) consensus mechanism enables any stakeholder to take part, directly or by delegation, in the consensus process, and to be rewarded for securing the network. Rather uniquely, Tezos’ on-chain governance system also enables stakeholders to create and vote on protocol upgrade proposals. This pioneering system allows the protocol to self-amend and upgrade itself without leading to a split (or fork) in the blockchain, empowering the community without slowing down innovation.


First proposed in 2014 and launched in 2018, the Tezos Mainnet has a proven track record of running uninterrupted ever since, having earned a strong reputation for technical excellence and a supportive community. 


Who Are the Founders of Tezos?
Tezos was conceived by Arthur and Kathleen Breitman in a 2014 white paper under the pseudonym L.M. Goodman in a nod to Satoshi Nakamoto, referencing a journalist who had misidentified the creator of Bitcoin.


In a previous paper, the Breitmans had argued that Bitcoin's biggest shortcomings were the lack of a governance process that invited contributions from its community of users, cost and centralization issues raised by its proof-of-work system, the limited expressiveness of its programming language which didn’t allow for smart contracts, and security
