What is Dznye Chain?
Dznye Chain is a shared online record of who owns what, run by many computers instead of one company. Here is what it does, in plain words.
Get started
Open a Dznye wallet in your browser, save your backup file, pick a name like @alex, and make your first payment. No signup and no money needed.
Everyday use
Send and receive
How to send DZY and tokens to a @name or an address, add a public note, receive payments, and check that a payment arrived. Takes about a second.
Make a token
Create a token on Dznye Chain for game gold, loyalty points, tickets or rewards: choose a name and symbol, how many exist, and an optional hard limit.
Trade on the market
Swap any token for any other on Dznye Chain. Post an offer, or take one: both sides move at the same moment, or nothing moves, and nobody holds your things.
Keep your account safe
Back up your key, use several devices, name a guardian for recovery, require several keys for big accounts, and give bots limited keys. Simple steps.
Fees and the welcome fund
Every action costs 0.001 DZY. See who pays it, what the welcome fund covers for newcomers, its daily limits, and how apps can pay fees for their own users.
How it works
DZY coin and treasury
DZY is the chain's own coin: 12,000,000 in total, issued on fixed timetables, and never destroyed. Learn how the pools, the treasury and fees fit together.
Validators and staking
How Dznye Chain agrees on every block: validators lock up DZY, vote by stake, lose part of it for cheating, and earn half the fees for the blocks they make.
How it compares
See how Dznye Chain compares with Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana on speed, fees, accounts, recovery and contracts, and what each one is best at.
Build
Contracts
Write, deploy and call contracts on Dznye Chain: a JSON language with gas, all-or-nothing calls, tokens, events and contract-to-contract calls, with full examples.
Payment channels
Two people lock coins once, pay each other instantly and for free as often as they like, and settle on the chain just once. How channels work and how to use them.
Developer kit and API
Build on Dznye Chain: the JavaScript developer kit, how transactions are signed, every transaction type, and every API endpoint, with working examples.
Run a node
Check Dznye Chain yourself: run a follower node, keep an archive anywhere, start from a snapshot, join the peer network, or become a validator. Commands included.
