Tezos

Tezos (XTZ) is a dynamic open-source blockchain platform optimized for decentralized apps and assets. Unique in its self-upgradable feature, stakeholders directly influence protocol upgrades, even revising its governance process. Fondly termed 'tezzie', its native token underscores its identity. Despite its record-breaking $232 million ICO in 2018, Tezos faced early turbulence due to management disputes.
