How does Zucoin work?

Zucoin operates on the Splitchain network, a unique approach compared to traditional blockchains.

Transactions are not grouped into blocks, allowing for faster settlement and less waiting time for nodes to sync.

This allows parallel transaction processing, reduces bottlenecks, and lowers the network server resources required to help the system scale.

Nodes on the Splitchain network do not require a consensus vote, as the network mainly propagates and returns cached information for transaction validation.

Splitchain, the backbone for Zucoin, flips the conventional blockchain model where the network nodes do the heavy lifting.

In Splitchain, nodes primarily cache data, while peer wallet apps handle most validation and transaction processing.

Transactions within Zucoin are stored individually within the Zucoin wallet.

The wallet is self-managed, meaning users have control over their own data.

Transaction history, contacts and wallet addresses are stored locally on the user's device, providing a secure and convenient way to transfer value in real-time.

The Zucoin wallet app is a digital wallet that enables secure and efficient electronic value transfers without the need for blocks or transaction fees.

It is non-custodial, meaning the user is in full control of their own data and the private keys used to verify their ownership of Zucoin are only stored on their device.

This is also known as a self-managed wallet.
