XZC (ZCoin) has been renamed FIRO Token (FIRO). FIRO (FIRO/USDT – Trade it here) is a privacy preserving cryptocurrency and ecosystem. It utilizes the Zerocoin protocol, which ensures that the relevant address information of both parties of the transaction is not leaked through the use of zero-knowledge proofs. This article will help you to get full understanding of what is Sandbox token and how to buy FIRO coin or earn it via MEXC.
FIRO Core Features
The creation of a decentralized blockchain based gaming platform provides multiple benefits when compared to current, non-blockchain systems, including:
- True Ownership
Assets stored in player wallets through tokenization of UGC; user retention of copyright in perpetuity; ownership not tied to a game; and creative authorship is immutable.
- Secure
Less fraud possibility thanks to blockchain’s record keeping technology.
- Fair Revenue Share
Creators will receive 100% of the selling price they set for their creations; and multiple creators can automatically share payments and revenue.
- Decentralized Trading
Blockchain allows assets to be shared between users for collaboration; and peer-to-peer trading.
Token Ecosystem
Technologies that power the token ecosystem include:
- Lelantus Spark Technology
Lelantus Spark greatly improves over its predecessor Lelantus with flexible Spark addresses that hide all transaction amounts, are not searchable on the blockchain while allowing efficient threshold signatures and both incoming and outgoing view key support. Spark also has a modular structure allowing components to be upgraded as better technology arises while simplifying security analysis. It retains the benefits of Lelantus with no trusted setup, an easy to understand construction and based on well established cryptographic assumptions.
- Lelantus Technology
Lelantus is a next-generation privacy protocol developed by Aram Jivanyan at Firo. Lelantus allows you to burn your coins, which hides them in an anonymity set of over 65,000. The receiver can redeem it from this anonymity pool, which breaks the links from your transaction and all the previous ones it has been through.
- Sigma Technology
Sigma uses 256 bit ECC curves for proof sizes of just 1.5 kB – a 17x improvement on then-current technology.
- Decentralized and fair security
Firo’s Merkle Tree Proof (MTP) mining algorithm was designed to democratize mining. The MTP algorithm is memory-intensive, increasing the costs of building ASICs and keeping the chain mineable by commodity hardware such as GPUs. Nodes, however, can bypass this memory requirement and verify these proofs efficiently. A Firo-sponsored audit in 2017 proved the effectiveness of this two-pronged approach. MTP has since been replaced by FiroPoW which has smaller proofs and additional ASIC resistant strategies.
FIRO Tokenomics
There will be 21.4 million Firo Coins. FIRO follows the same distribution and halving cycle as Bitcoin (every 4 years).
The current block reward of 6.25 FIRO/block is divided as follows:
- Miners (25%, 1.5625 FIRO)
- Masternodes (50%, 3.125 FIRO )
- Development Fund (15%, 0.9375 FIRO)
- Community Fund (10%, 0.625 FIRO)
