Tezos is a decentralized blockchain platform designed for smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps). It focuses on security, upgradeability, and energy efficiency through its unique governance system.

Unlike many blockchains, Tezos can upgrade itself without requiring hard forks. Network participants vote on protocol changes, allowing the blockchain to evolve over time while maintaining consensus.”

Tezos uses a proof-of-stake system and supports advanced smart contracts, making it popular for decentralized finance (DeFi), NFTs, and enterprise blockchain solutions.
