PIVX is a decentralized blockchain project and cryptocurrency that was announced on November 25, 2015, and launched on January 30, 2016. Initially utilizing a Proof of Work algorithm, it transitioned to a Proof of Stake system on August 17, 2016. PIVX employs a custom-developed PoS consensus engine and has a native cryptocurrency called PIV, which serves multiple functions within the network.
Governance of PIVX is managed through a community-driven decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). The project features a Masternode network that contributes to decentralized governance, with ongoing developments including Deterministic Masternode Lists and Long Living Masternode Quorums. PIVX implements an anonymity protocol based on zk-SNARKs Sapling, and its coin supply is governed by a fixed block emission rate combined with monthly budget allocations, alongside a mechanism for burning transaction fees.
Risk Report
Cryptocurrency carries risk. Every project listed on this site, regardless of its score, operates in a volatile and largely unregulated market. Tokens can lose most or all of their value. A high score reflects lower structural risk based on the data we can measure. It does not mean a project is safe, that the price will hold, or that losses are unlikely. Always research independently and never commit money you cannot afford to lose.
