The revolutionary Zilliqa blockchain has the partnerships, technology, and the team to erupt in the blockchain industry.

The Singapore based project has been causing a huge stir in the blockchain industry with huge partnerships and revolutionary sharding technology.

Consensus 2019

The Zilliqa team have recently been to Consensus 2019 where they shined in educating and demonstrating the benefits of their revolutionary technology.

The team showed great professionalism and knowledge in several high profile interviews about the technology and benefits of using the Zilliqa platform. There was lots of interest gathered from the event especially in the state of the art sharding technology that really did draw in the crowds of the event.

But the biggest news came from the Zilliqa team presentation where they let us know the smart contract Scilla will be enabled on the 10th June. This is exciting news for the platform as projects will now be able to start developing on the platform!

Technology

The Zilliqa network runs on the concept of sharding, with the team managing to achieve up to 2448 TPS with the revolutionary technology with rumors of team technology achieving up to 10,000 TPX on the stress test. But these numbers are only the start of he Zilliqa blockchain and once it matures and more nodes are activated on the network Zilliqa could dwarf the currently TPS.

As of the 1st April 2019, the Zilliqa platform went live for public transactions. This has allowed miners to store and send their Zilliqa tokens off the network. With recent news from Consensus that the Scilla smart contract platform will be enabled on the 10th June allowing dApps to build on the network!

Grants On The Zilliqa Network

The Zilliqa team has been offering grants on its platform for projects to build on top of their state of the art sharding network. We found out what project received the grants in the latest round but are they the projects that take Zilliqa into the mainstream.

Moonlet:

Moonlet is a digital wallet provider for the new Zilliqa main net tokens and Ethereum, the project offers clean easy to use digital wallet that allows users to use a single set of mnemonic seed words.

But some of the most amazing things about this project is you can start sending and receiving payments with a .zil domain names directly from the wallet with the project also offering full integration with Ledger Nano S hardware devices.

Unstoppable Domains:

Unstoppable Domains is building domains on blockchains. The project has received backing from both the Zilliqa and the Ethereum Foundation to offer both .zil and .eth domains.

But these domains have one amazing feature, the owners of the domains will be able to send and receive payments to both .zil and .eth domains.

ZHIP iOS wallet:

Zhip iOS wallet is an exciting new wallet allowing you to make micro-payments via ZILs intuitive wallet application.

The Zhip wallet is the worlds first mobile Zilliqa wallet. It is completely open source, thus the code and design are publicly available on Github. Join the community.

The team is always looking for a revolutionary project to come forward and work with and build onto the platform so don’t expect the grants to start slowing down.

My Thoughts On Zilliqa

The project has really matured over the bear market and released their main-net as promised with no hiccups. The in coming smart contract release will be huge for the project and community as we can see all the hard work paying off for the project.

The team behind Zilliqa are always in the community channels in telegram sharing their views and answer questions from community members and you can see they are fully committed and genially care about their users and fans.

This is only the start for the Zilliqa blockchain and the project has a lot of room to grow, once we get more feedback from the project being built on the network and miners flocking to the network to mine I think the project will fully take off.

Zilliqa the future of transactions on the blockchain.
