Zucoin has no fees primarily because there is no mining process involved.
This means not just low fees, but no fees at all for Zucoin-to-Zucoin wallet transactions.
The system is designed to run on commodity hardware, making it inexpensive for anyone to participate by running nodes.
This allows the use of existing cheap infrastructure, such as that offered by common web hosting providers, to operate Splitchainnodes.
Furthermore, network data size growth is also very efficient.
Data on the network grows proportionally to the number of wallets transacting (specifically, by a factor of two), not by the total number of wallets or the sheer number of transactions.
For example, two users conducting 10,000 transactions would typically produce only about four chunks of data.
In contrast, blockchain systems typically require all 10,000 transactions to be stored somewhere, on-chain.
While other tokens, digital assets or services built on the Splitchain network could potentially introduce fees, the base "Zucoin" token has been designed with no fees to maximize growth and adoption.
