Own Layer-1 Chain
SHANZAI runs its own independent chain and native coin — not a token deployed on top of another network.
SHANZAI is an independent, EVM-compatible Layer-1 blockchain with its own coin, wallet, and explorer — built for speed, security, and community-first growth.
SHANZAI is an independent Layer-1 blockchain — with a native SHANZAI coin, its own block explorer, a web wallet, EVM smart contract support and Proof of Staked Authority consensus.
SHANZAI runs its own independent chain and native coin — not a token deployed on top of another network.
Full EVM compatibility means Solidity contracts, MetaMask and existing developer tooling work out of the box.
A purpose-built explorer and web wallet let anyone verify blocks, transactions and balances natively.
Proof of Staked Authority delivers quick finality and low fees with an accountable, staked validator set.
From signature to finality — the full path a transaction travels through the network.
A user signs and broadcasts a transaction from the wallet or a dApp.
The RPC node checks signature, nonce and gas, then relays it to the mempool.
The scheduled validator bundles pending transactions into a candidate block.
Peer validators re-execute the block and confirm state transitions match.
Once a supermajority signs, the block reaches deterministic finality.
The finalized block is appended to the SHANZAI chain and indexed by the explorer.
Block rewards and fees are distributed to the validator and its stakers.
PoSA rotation automatically elects the next proposer from the active set.
Tokenomics
A fixed supply with transparent allocations, lock-ups and vesting designed for long-term network health.
| Category | Allocation % | Vesting / Lock Period |
|---|---|---|
| Community Airdrop | 17.77% | 3–6 Month Lock After Claim |
| Ecosystem & Development | 22.23% | 36 Month Vesting |
| Team & Founders | 15.00% | 6M Cliff + 18M Vesting |
| Validator & Staking Rewards | 15.00% | Continuous Block Rewards |
| Treasury & Reserve | 10.00% | Multisig, Governance Only |
| Marketing & Partnerships | 10.00% | 12 Month Vesting |
| Liquidity Pool | 10.00% | Locked in DEX/CEX Pool |
A structured, multi-season distribution that rewards genuine participation across the community, staking and testnet phases.

Mainnet Launch
SHANZAI is developed by an experienced blockchain engineering team with hands-on expertise in EVM execution layers and independent Layer-1 chain deployment.
Rather than publishing placeholder profiles, we let the engineering speak: the chain, explorer and wallet are being built in-house on a proven, open technology stack.
The node client is built in Go for high-throughput block production and predictable performance.
Proof of Staked Authority gives fast finality with an accountable, staked validator set.
Battle-tested peer-to-peer transport for validator gossip, discovery and block propagation.
Full EVM equivalence, so existing Solidity tooling and contracts deploy without changes.
