Exchange Horizen Fast Without KYC

Introduction to Horizen

Horizen (ZEN) was founded under the name ZenCash in May 2017 by Robert Viglione and Rolf Versluis, who later rebranded the project to Horizen in August 2018. Horizen is a fully fledged blockchain ecosystem in its own right which features EVM compatible smart contract capabilities. It therefore aims to rival the likes of Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain and Polygon within the DeFi and NFT space.

Whilst Horizen was originally founded as a privacy coin, it removed any privacy features in June 2023 in favor of a new vision that would be more in line with other EVM compatible blockchains, with an emphasis on openness and transparency.

Features of Horizen

Horizen has come a long way from its origins as a Bitcoin fork, to later integrating an EVM compatible sidechain. The September 2024 upgrade to the blockchain (codenamed 'Horizen 2.0') saw blockchain times reducing to an average of just 6 seconds (down from 2.5 seconds at launch), whilst preserving the maximum supply of 21 million ZEN tokens, matching the max supply of Bitcoin. This will protect the native token's value by ensuring a finite cap is in place.

Horizen can theoretically handle up to 10 million transactions per second across all sidechains. The network is highly decentralized whilst being one of the most scalable in the world, rivalling and potentially besting the capabilities of Ethereum, Cardano and Solana.

The Future for Horizen

The technology behind Horizen makes it one of the most exciting blockchains for those looking to invest in. It is already accepted on many of the world's largest exchange platforms, including Binance, Coinbase and Bybit. Those looking for a privacy oriented project should look elsewhere, but with its dedicated team of developers with a solid set of long-term ambitions for the blockchain, Horizen looks set to go from strength to strength.
