This article shows you what is the Horizen side chain, the content is concise and easy to understand, can definitely brighten your eyes, through the detailed introduction of this article, I hope you can get something.

Horizen is designing side chains and side chain SDK so that developers and enterprises can develop their own blockchains quickly and cheaply. Our side chain is designed for secure and decentralized cross-chain transmission, without the need for the main chain node to verify the side chain, thus achieving scalability.

Why do you need a side chain?

We initially decided to adopt side chain technology because several large companies from various industries contacted us to create customized blockchain applications for them. Each enterprise needs its own data and rules, and would prefer to take advantage of Horizen's powerful public blockchain infrastructure. In fact, we can't create a new blockchain for each new application, which reminds us of the side chain.

Our approach is to allow developers or companies to use their own logic and data to build a parallel block chain (side chain application) and connect to our main chain (Horizen main network), and use a single protocol to allow the main chain to receive and send back transactions, which applies to many different types of applications.

Advantages of Horizen side chain:

Malleability: the side chain is completely separated from the main chain (independent), so there is no need for any modification to the core client (access to the side chain only once).

Safety: in the case of the wrong implementation of the side chain function, the potential security risks are limited to the side chain, the main chain will lock the side chain mortgage funds, does not affect the safety of the main chain.

Decentralized node verification: side chains can be run by untrusted nodes without the need for a central authority or trusted party to verify cross-chain transactions.

SDK: supports a variety of software languages and protocols, as well as the freedom to define side chain logic rules and data.

You can read about the transition of Horizen to the side chain in our official account, or check out our white paper.

Horizen side chain SDK

Our SDK is very novel because developers can write application programs in their favorite language, and in addition, enterprises can directly take advantage of the functions of the main chain without having to build their own blockchain from scratch, as well as taking advantage of Horizen's large node network. With our SDK, developers will be able to quickly and easily customize blockchain components, such as consensus, encryption algorithms, chunk reward, chunk time, etc. These components can be completely independent of the main chain of Horizen.
