About Bluzelle (BLZ)

Bluzelle is a decentralized database solution for decentralized applications (dApps). It is built on the latest version of Tendermint/Cosmos protocol. It focuses on database, which is different from other projects that focus on file storage.

Bluzelle is using the delegated-proof-of-stake consensus. There are three main types of participants in the Bluzelle ecosystem: validators, delegators and consumers. Consumers pay Bluzelle tokens to store data on the network. Validators run a Bluzelle node to provide storage space to the network, and are responsible for verifying the authenticity of data transactions. They earn the network transaction fees paid by the consumers. Delegators can also stake their tokens with one of the validators to earn staking rewards.

Bluzelle is using a dual-token system:BLZ - the ERC-20 tokens on Ethereum that can be exchanged with other external tokensBNT - the internal tokens for all Bluzelle network transactions, allowing faster transaction speed internally.

BLZ & BNT is exchangeable through their own Ethereum-Cosmos relayer at 1:1 ratio.

The Bluzelle mainnet is rolled out in 2 phases. Phase 1 Soft Mainnet has started on 19th Aug. The public can start to stake their tokens and earn rewards of up to 25% APY. They will also focus on recruiting network validators and partners. Phase 2 Production Mainnet will be launched in September, with the first Ethereum-Cosmos relayer going live in the blockchain space.

It is worth noting that the blockchain investment firm NEO Global Capital, Kinetic Capital, Hashed, KR1, 1kx, as well as Fintech VC group Lun Partners, True Global Ventures, and Global Brains have invested in BLZ cryptocurrency.
