Ring Signatures

The transactions between Zano network members are made untraceable with ring signatures and stealth addresses. Also, the way transaction data is stored on the blockchain allows access by parties who authorized the transactions only, and none of the private data is ever publicly published.

Stealth Addresses

The confidentiality of all Zano transactions is hard-coded into the core. By concealing all sending and receiving addresses we have maximalized the level of privacy for every Zano user.

Amount privacy

A secure scheme with a set of proofs allows for the concealment of the amount of coins transferred. The Bulletproofs+ technology is used for these proofs, enabling the creation of both performance-effective and size-effective proofs. These ensure that the sum and type of the inputs match the sum and type of the outputs, without revealing the actual details.

Ionic Swaps

An improvement on Atomic Swaps, innovating seamless cryptocurrency exchanges while preserving user privacy.

Confidential Assets

Anyone can easily issue their own currencies and digital tokens on the Zano chain; assets secured by the same mechanisms that make Zano so much more secure than first-generation cryptocurrencies, namely hidden addresses, hidden amounts and IP obfuscation.

Hybrid PoW/PoS setup

Our blockchain is protected by our custom hybrid PoW/PoS consensus algorithm, pairing the advantages of each process to create a highly secure platform. This makes the system less prone to double-spend attacks, improving overall security.

Zarcanum

World’s first Proof of Stake scheme that enhances traditional PoS with untraceability and hidden amounts, revolutionising blockchain consensus.

Escrow Contracts

Our escrow service empowers users with customizable contracts in a trustless environment, secured by deposits to deter malfeasance.

Aliases

All Zano network users can create aliases, for example: @username. These aliases can be linked to a payment address, which makes our network more user-friendly. In the long run, aliases will be used in a dedicated messenger, a user reputation service, and an alias-based authentication system.

Auditable Wallets

Auditable wallets give people and organizations the option to create transparent wallets for situations where we would rather verify than trust.

Marketplace API

Explore our dynamic API, facilitating a seamless integration into the marketplace ecosystem. This feature allows anyone to spin up their own decentralized marketplace.

P2P off-chain Protocol

The consensus process is balanced out by a hybrid PoW/PoS algorithm, pairing the advantages of each process to create a secure platform.
