FAQ

How to Buy Tezos

Tezos can be purchased in multiple exchanges and brokers in a similar manner to other cryptocurrency types. Buying Tezos (XTZ) involves selecting a reputable cryptocurrency exchange, creating an account, and depositing funds (either fiat currency or other cryptocurrencies). Once your account is funded, you can purchase Tezos by placing an order on the exchange.

It’s crucial to transfer your Tezos to a secure wallet after purchase to ensure its safety. Popular exchanges for buying Tezos include Coinbase, Binance, and Kraken, and you can use hardware wallets like Ledger or Trezor for secure storage. Always stay informed about market conditions and prioritise security to protect your investment.

What Is Tezos?

Tezos is a blockchain platform designed for smart contracts and decentralised applications (dApps), focusing on security, upgradability, and governance. The Tezos blockchain network hosts the associated digital token Tez (XTZ).

What sets Tezos apart from other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum is its unique self-amending protocol, which allows the blockchain to upgrade itself without hard forks. This subsequently reduces disruption, improves longevity, and enables a communication bridge between several blockchains within its ecosystem. Tezos employs a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism, which is more energy-efficient than traditional proof-of-work systems.

Its native cryptocurrency, XTZ, (also known as 'Tezzie') is used for transactions, staking, and participating in governance decisions, enabling users to vote on proposed changes and updates to the network.

Where to Buy Tezos

You can buy Tezos (XTZ) on Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Huobi, and several other cryptocurrency exchanges. Tezos can also be bought from trusted crypto brokers such as eToro. Before purchasing, ensure that you have a secure wallet to store your Tezos and complete any necessary verification processes on the exchange you choose.

When Will Tezos Be on Exchanges?

Tezos (XTZ) has been available on cryptocurrency exchanges since its initial launch in 2018. If you are looking to buy or trade Tezos, you can do so on several major exchanges, as listed previously. There is no upcoming date for Tezos to be listed, as it is already widely available on many platforms.

Tezos is currently trading across more than 50 top-ranking cryptocurrency exchanges. You can buy Tezos from any number of highly liquid cryptocurrency exchanges or brokers.

How Does Tezos Work?

Like the Ethereum network, Tezos blockchain enables the programming of self-executing lines of code called smart contracts and the design of new applications or decentralised applications (dApps) that replicate real-world services and products. It does this by using a unique consensus mechanism called Liquid Proof-of-Stake (LPoS).

However, in Tezos, validators known as "bakers" validate transactions and add new blocks, with Tezos holders able to delegate their XTZ tokens to bakers without transferring ownership, allowing them to earn rewards indirectly. One of Tezos' standout features is its on-chain governance system, where stakeholders can propose and vote on protocol upgrades. The proposal reviewing process is broken into the shell and protocol components. The shell component is the code that self-amends based on the way users vote on protocol upgrades. It also ensures the interpretation of transactions sent into the network and other administrative duties. The protocol component is the code that sends the proposal to the shell component for review. Successful proposals are tested and, if validated, implemented without the need for disruptive hard forks, ensuring continuous improvement and stability.

Tezos also emphasises security and reliability through the use of Michelson, a domain-specific language for smart contracts that supports formal verification—a mathematical method to prove the correctness of contracts. This reduces risks associated with bugs and vulnerabilities. The native cryptocurrency, XTZ, is used for transaction fees, staking, and governance participation, making it integral to the platform's operation.

Is Tezos Staking Worth It?

Crypto staking is becoming increasingly popular, and Tezos staking is also a major area of interest for many. The Proof-of-Stake (PoS) protocol is one of the top 15 most staked crypto assets, according to data from Staking Rewards.

Staking Tezos can be a worthwhile investment if you are looking to earn passive income and support the network. It offers a decent return on your holdings and contributes to the security and functionality of the Tezos blockchain. However, it is important to consider the lock-up periods, choose a reliable baker, and be aware of market risks. If you are comfortable with these factors, Tezos staking can be a beneficial addition to your investment strategy.

How Many Tezos Tokens Will There Be?

Tezos has a maximum supply of 893,801,820 tokens that will ever exist.
