About Horizen (ZEN)
Layer-1 blockchainHorizen (ZEN) spent its first years as a privacy coin and then reinvented itself as zero-knowledge infrastructure, migrating to an EVM-compatible base and building tooling for proof-based applications rather than shielded payments.
The story behind Horizen
The chain launched in 2017 as ZenCash, forked from Zclassic and inheriting Zcash's shielded-transaction technology. A 51% attack in 2018 prompted a penalty system that made reorganisation attacks expensive, and the project rebranded to Horizen with an ambitious sidechain framework, Zendoo. In 2023–2024 the direction shifted decisively: shielded pools were deprecated and Horizen moved toward EVM compatibility and zero-knowledge tooling, ending its identity as a privacy coin.
What ZEN is used for
ZEN pays fees and secures the network, and the ecosystem's focus is now on sidechains and zero-knowledge proving for applications that need verifiable computation. Holders who arrived for shielded transfers have had to adjust; the current pitch is developer infrastructure, not anonymity.
Horizen in the market today
Horizen is a small-cap asset with a long history and a hard pivot behind it. Repositioning cost it the privacy audience without yet winning the crowded zero-knowledge infrastructure market, where far better-funded competitors are chasing the same developers.
