What is Tezos?

Tezos is a distributed consensus platform with a self amending blockchain that could counter the threat of forks through the use of programmatically enforced rules. Tezos is being built from the ground up and was not based on any other blockchains. The consensus algorithm on Tezos is Delegated Proof of Stake (dPoS) which will help with the governance structure of the blockchain. Like Ethereum, Tezos will have smart contract functionality which will allow other developers to build decentralised applications (dApps). The decentralised governance of the Tezos blockchain will allow anybody to propose protocol upgrades.

Anonstake.com provides public delegation services to retail token holders.
