Tezos is a blockchain focused on creating smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps). It's similar to Ethereum, but with one big difference: Tezos is a self-evolving mechanism that doesn't require a hard fork to implement changes. This allows the network to evolve quickly. Tezos uses the Michelson programming language, specifically designed for developing smart contracts on the Tezos blockchain. Michelson is a low-level programming language that forms the foundation for developing applications on the network.

Additionally, Tezos is a governance network. This means that holders of XTZ (the native coin) can vote on important network upgrades. The network can process 40 to 50 transactions per second (TPS) and has a block time of 1 minute. This means a new block is added to the blockchain every minute.

Tezos operates with a unique consensus algorithm called Liquid Proof of Stake (LPoS). In this system, control lies with a decentralized group of validators, also known as bakers. The bakers are selected based on the number of XTZ coins they stake. By staking XTZ, they help validate transactions, add new blocks, and secure the network.

LPoS also gives bakers the ability to vote on important network decisions. This voting process is called baking and takes about 23 days. Proposals that are approved are first tested by the bakers before being implemented. A proposal is approved if the majority votes in favor, making it a democratic system.

Tezos (XTZ) was founded in 2014 by Arthur Breitman and Kathleen Breitman. They launched Tezos with the goal of creating a blockchain that is democratically governed and technologically advanced. With this, they wanted to differentiate themselves from Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Tezos was funded through one of the largest initial coin offerings (ICOs) up to that point, which took place in 2017 and raised over $230 million.

Tezos offers solutions for various scenarios. You can build decentralized financial products like DeFi applications on Tezos. Additionally, the network is suitable for creating and trading non-fungible tokens (NFTs), as well as for creating smart contracts that enable automated payments. Transaction fees on the network are paid with XTZ.
