Zilliqa
The high-throughput public blockchain platform.
Overview
Zilliqa is a high-performance, high-security public blockchain platform that was the first to implement sharding on its mainnet. This allows the network to process transactions in parallel, leading to high throughput. Zilliqa is designed to be a scalable and secure platform for decentralized applications.
✨ Key Features
- Sharding
- High Throughput
- Scilla (secure smart contract language)
- Low Transaction Fees
- Eco-friendly
🎯 Key Differentiators
- First public blockchain to implement sharding
- Scilla, a secure-by-design smart contract language
- High throughput and scalability
Unique Value: Zilliqa provides a highly scalable and secure blockchain platform that enables developers to build high-throughput decentralized applications.
🎯 Use Cases (4)
✅ Best For
- Unstoppable Domains (NFT domain names)
- Mintable (NFT marketplace)
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Applications that require complex cross-shard communication
🏆 Alternatives
Zilliqa's implementation of sharding provides a significant scalability advantage over non-sharded blockchains. Its custom-built smart contract language, Scilla, is designed to be more secure and less prone to vulnerabilities than Solidity.
