About Tezos

Tezos is an open-source platform for assets and applications that can evolve and upgrade itself without having to split the network. It uses a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism and allows for formal verification to increase security. Users can participate in the consensus process by "baking", or they can delegate their rights to other users. Arthur Breitman and Kathleen Breitman are the two main creators of Tezos, and a group of developers and researchers have joined them to create the platform.

“Baking” is the act of signing and publishing blocks to the Tezos blockchain. Bakers are a crucial component of the Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism by ensuring that all transactions in a block are correct, that the order of transactions is agreed upon, and that no double-spending has occurred.

To bake blocks, a baker needs to participate in Proof-of-Stake, which requires a minimum of 8,000 XTZ (1 roll). The more rolls of tez that a baker owns, the higher your chances are at baking blocks and earning baking rewards.

If someone does not have 8,000 XTZ or does not want to set up computing infrastructure to bake blocks, they may delegate their coins to a baker (aka "delegate"). Delegating lets coin holders (i.e. "delegators") "lend" their coins to a baker (i.e. a "delegate"), giving the baker a higher probability of being selected to bake and endorse blocks. In practice, bakers usually share the additional revenue generated from the delegated tokens with the coin holder. Importantly, this process does not actually transfer ownership of coins and hence the baker cannot spend or control the XTZ delegated to it, ensuring that bakers cannot appropriate the delegators' funds.
Arthur Breitman and Kathleen Breitman are the two main creators of Tezos. They were joined by a group of developers and researchers to create the platform. Arthur and Kathleen have backgrounds in mathematical finance and computer science respectively. Arthur was a quantitative analyst at Goldman Sachs and had experience working on Wall Street. Kathleen was a business analyst at Bridgewater Associates, a hedge fund company. The team worked for two years to develop the Tezos protocol and platform. Tezos was officially launched in 2018 and has since become a major player in the cryptocurrency space.

Three Wallet Security Mistakes Trust Wallet Actually Prevents

Three Wallet Security Mistakes Trust Wallet Actually Prevents

Trust Wallet Token (TWT) trades around $0.48 with a market cap near $199 million, tying governance and fee discounts to the security features Trust Wallet shipped through the first half of 2026. The self-custody app, with over 220 million users, added a delayed seed-phrase re-verification flow, an automated Address Poisoning Shield tied to over $500 million in past losses, and a biometric-gated local keystore. The push followed a December 2025 Chrome extension breach (version 2.68) that drained roughly $7 million from users who saved seed phrases as screenshots, after which Binance's CZ pledged full reimbursement. Trust Wallet support is architecturally locked out of user keys: no agent can reverse a confirmed transaction or recover a lost seed phrase. That tradeoff is the point. Self-custody means self-responsibility, and the strongest protection a wallet can offer is that no one, not even Trust Wallet itself, can reach your funds.

Is Tezos a Good Investment When NFTs Aren't Trending

Tezos (XTZ) trades around $0.35 with a market cap near $385 million, ranked 99th on CoinMarketCap and nearly 96% below its October 2021 all-time high of $9.12. The SEC and CFTC named XTZ on their March 17, 2026 list of 16 crypto assets formally classified as digital commodities, clearing the regulatory overhang from the $25 million 2020 ICO class-action settlement. The Tallinn upgrade in January 2026 was the protocol's 20th forkless self-amendment, cutting block times to six seconds. Tezos X Previewnet launched May 5 with mainnet targeted for June. Bitnomial listed CFTC-regulated XTZ futures in February, starting the six-month clock toward a possible spot ETF filing. Total ecosystem TVL across L1 and Etherlink is around $70 million, well behind Ethereum's L2 competitors. Whether the structural pillars matter to retail investors when XTZ trades 3x below the lowest 2026 analyst target of $1.10 is the open question for buyers of potential over momentum.
