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.

Zano Has a Catalyst Chain Reaction Building for Q2

Zano Has a Catalyst Chain Reaction Building for Q2

Trading at $9.64, about 46% off of all-time highs near $17.81, Zano's token has a market capitalization around $147 million. Four distinct catalysts are packed into the Zano crypto project's 2026 calendar, any one of which could materially shift that valuation. Gateway Addresses entering testnet in February, pending DEX integration talks with Thorchain and Maya Protocol, an expanding payments footprint across 50 million merchants, and an increasingly bifurcated regulatory environment for privacy coins all sit on the near-term horizon.

Trust Wallet Stays Independent While Binance Sells Everything

Trust Wallet Stays Independent While Binance Sells Everything

The narrative around ownership of crypto right now is that Trust Wallet is owned by Binance. That makes Trust Wallet centralized. Wrong. Not entirely at least. As Binance spun out portfolio companies through 2025 and into 2026, and as Trust Wallet began establishing governance frameworks independently, the narrative around who owns Trust Wallet has shifted.

How to Buy Tezos Without Overpaying on Fees

How to Buy Tezos Without Overpaying on Fees

Coffee prices keep rising; currently the average cup at a national-chain coffee shop is $5. Buy $50 worth of Tezos on certain platforms and you'll pay $5 or more to fees alone. Before your XTZ even reaches a wallet, 10% or more of your first purchase can be burned as fees. Exchange fee models differ between CEX vs DEX vs buying direct-to-wallet so much that two identical trades can cost anywhere from 5%-12% depending on the venue.
