The native asset of a sharded smart-contract network launched in 2019.
Zilliqa is tracked here because it has an established public market and recurring reader interest. Inclusion is not an endorsement. Bitcoin.now compares other networks on their own terms while keeping Bitcoin's monetary design, custody model, and proof-of-work security as the site's main subject.
There is no single official Zilliqa price. The number above is the latest public observation from OKX. Another exchange can show a different last trade because its buyers, sellers, liquidity, and order book are different.
A displayed price is not the amount guaranteed for an order. Spread, fees, depth, slippage, payment method, and location can change the final value.
Five facts to check before treating a price as an understanding of the asset.
Zilliqa uses a programmable base-layer network where validators order transactions and applications execute shared state.
For ZIL, units enter circulation under the network's protocol schedule, while fees, staking, and possible burns affect the liquid supply.
Rule changes depend on the client teams, validators, token holders, foundations, and application ecosystem involved in that network.
The intended role includes paying network fees, staking where supported, and interacting with applications.
Material risks include validator concentration, client bugs, smart-contract failures, bridge risk, governance changes, and volatile demand for block space.
Who can change the software or token contract? Where can supply data be reproduced? Which keys, validators, administrators, bridges, or issuers must keep working? How much real liquidity exists near the displayed price? A useful asset review answers those questions with current primary documentation instead of relying on market capitalization or social attention.
