This allows Zilliqa to achieve high throughput and scalability without sacrificing security. Zilliqa's operations are focused on developing and maintaining the Zilliqa protocol, and on promoting the adoption of Zilliqa by businesses and developers around the world. The Zilliqa team is working on a number of projects, including developing new Zilliqa-based products and features, integrating Zilliqa with other blockchains and ecosystems, and building a community of Zilliqa users and developers. Zilliqa's objectives are to make Zilliqa the most widely used layer-1 blockchain platform for businesses and developers, and to promote the development of a decentralized and user-friendly ecosystem of applications on Zilliqa. The Zilliqa team believes that Zilliqa can play a major role in achieving these objectives by providing a fast, secure, and scalable blockchain platform for building and deploying next-generation applications.
