Blockchain technology is never-ending to answer the old scaling issue, and Zilliqa may be the first project to solve it. Using sharding and a hybrid consensus mechanism, Zilliqa provides a secure network for high throughput DApps, eco-friendly dual mining, and non-custodial staking. Zilliqa is less than five years old, and it is evolving at a rapid pace. In this review, we analyze its performance so far as we dissect its functioning mechanisms. What Is Zilliqa? Zilliqa project is the first…
