About
Zilliqa (ZIL)

Zilliqa (ZIL) is a high-throughput public blockchain platform designed to address the critical issue of scalability that has challenged many earlier decentralized networks. Its core innovation lies in the practical implementation of network sharding, a technique that divides the network into smaller, more manageable groups of nodes (shards), allowing for parallel transaction processing. This architectural design significantly boosts its transactions per second (TPS) capability, positioning Zilliqa as a robust digital ledger for demanding decentralized applications (dApps). The platform utilizes a practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (pBFT) consensus mechanism within each shard, ensuring cryptographic security and efficient agreement on transaction validity.

A key distinguishing feature of Zilliqa is its custom-built smart contract language, Scilla (Secure Smart Contract Intermediate-Level Language). Scilla is designed with security at its forefront, aiming to prevent common smart contract vulnerabilities by separating state from function and performing formal verification. The native utility token, ZIL, is integral to the ecosystem. It serves as a medium for paying transaction fees, executing smart contracts (gas fees), and participating in staking to secure the network and earn rewards. Zilliqa's tokenomics also previously involved a governance token, gZIL, though ZIL itself remains central to on-chain operations.

Zilliqa aims to be a foundational Web3 infrastructure, particularly attractive for dApps requiring high transaction throughput and a secure smart contract environment, such as in gaming, digital advertising, and financial services. Its pioneering work in sharding provides a scalable solution for developers building complex DeFi applications and other on-chain systems, contributing to the broader evolution of blockchain technology and the digital asset landscape.

Frequently asked questions

  • How can I buy Zilliqa (ZIL) directly with Philippine Pesos (PHP)?

    To purchase ZIL with PHP, utilize a BSP-regulated cryptocurrency exchange or a fiat on-ramp that supports Philippine Peso deposits. You can fund your account using local payment methods like InstaPay, PESONet, or e-wallets such as GCash and Maya. Once your PHP is deposited, you can trade it directly on the PHP/ZIL order book or use a quick conversion feature to acquire this scalable digital asset.
  • What makes Zilliqa (ZIL) a unique digital asset to hold in my crypto portfolio?

    Zilliqa stands out due to its implementation of network sharding technology, which allows the blockchain to process thousands of transactions per second with high throughput. Unlike older networks struggling with scalability, Zilliqa uses its native smart contract language, Scilla, to provide a highly secure environment for decentralized applications (dApps) and ZRC-2 tokens, making it a robust Layer-1 ecosystem.
  • What are the typical fees when converting PHP to ZIL via local fiat gateways?

    Converting PHP to ZIL involves two main costs: fiat deposit fees and exchange trading fees. Depositing PHP via local banking networks (InstaPay/PESONet) or e-wallets like GCash typically incurs a minimal flat rate or percentage fee. The trading fee on the cryptocurrency exchange usually ranges from 0.1% to 0.5% based on trading volume. Zilliqa's own blockchain transaction fees (gas) are exceptionally low due to its sharded architecture.
  • How should I securely store my ZIL tokens after purchasing them with Philippine Pesos?

    After completing your PHP to ZIL transaction on an exchange, transferring your digital assets to a secure non-custodial wallet is a best practice. Choose a digital wallet that natively supports the Zilliqa mainnet and ZRC-2 tokens. For maximum security, hardware wallets are recommended, as they keep your private keys offline, protecting your funds from potential exchange vulnerabilities or unauthorized access.
  • Can I earn rewards by staking the ZIL I bought with PHP?

    Yes, staking ZIL is a core feature of the Zilliqa network's consensus mechanism. Once you have acquired ZIL using your Philippine Pesos, you can delegate your tokens to a seed node operator via a compatible non-custodial wallet. Staking helps secure the sharded blockchain network and validates transactions, allowing you to earn ZIL rewards and governance tokens (gZIL) while maintaining your digital asset holdings.
