What is Zether?

Zether is an entirely decentralized and confidential blockchain. It is compatible with Ethereum, as well as many other Smart Contract platforms.

Zether is similar to Ethereum when it comes to utility and efficiency. It comes with an elevated level of security. It is made up of the Zether Smart Contract (ZSC), which is a smart contract.

Smart contracts are used to ensure that all transactions, including deposits, transfers and withdrawals, will be done using cryptographic proofs. The account balance, too, is encrypted to ensure the safety of the user.

Zether Tokens (ZTC) are also used to transfer funds between Zether accounts.
