Tezos is an open-source blockchain platform for assets and applications, emphasizing code security, on-chain governance, and decentralization. The protocol was originally conceived in a 2014 white paper by Arthur and Kathleen Breitman under the pseudonym L.M. Goodman and was launched as the Tezos Mainnet in 2018. It was initially built with formal verification in mind for smart contract development.

Tezos uses Liquid Proof-of-Stake (LPoS), allowing stakeholders to participate directly or via delegation in consensus and to receive rewards for securing the network. The protocol includes an on-chain governance system in which stakeholders can create and vote on upgrade proposals, enabling self-amendment without splitting the chain. The description also states that Tezos 2.0 aims to improve scalability through layer 2s, enhance composability, and add support for mainstream programming languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python.

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.

Track record score 79 out of 100. The network has a long life span of 7.9 years, and there are no historical incidents on record. Regulatory cleanliness is rated at 75, with 1 regulatory action(s) found, plus 1 additional concern(s) raised by research. Overall, the asset shows relatively stable operational history, though regulatory matters have been identified.

Developer health score 0 out of 100. The public development signals are extremely limited based on the available records: 0 GitHub stars, 0 forks, 0 commits in the last 4 weeks, and 0 PR contributors. The bucket is explicitly flagged for no recent commits. This combination indicates low observable developer activity in the measured period.

Network security score 70 out of 100. On-chain incident history shows 0 historical incidents on record, and the chain age is 7.9 years old with strong age-based stability. Economic security is rated 35 due to a market cap of $423,446,980, and there is no hard supply cap defined (rated 50), which introduces potential inflation dynamics. Circulating supply is high at 98% of total supply circulating (rated 100).

Social and behavioral risk score 53 out of 100. Social audience data is limited, with TW and RD accounts marked as linked but showing an audience score of 25. Sentiment is balanced at 50% up / 50% down. Risk signals are mixed: there are 0 allegations, but there is bad press (1), regulatory concerns (1), and no incidents. In addition, the influencer snapshot is unavailable.

Adoption and liquidity score 46 out of 100. Trading activity is moderate, with 24h volume of $11,231,679 (rated 26). Exchange listing breadth is strong at 70 CEX listings (rated 100 overall for cex_listings, including 32 green-trust), but the market cap tier is rated 0 given the stated market cap of $423,446,980. This suggests availability is broad, while liquidity depth relative to size appears weaker.

Inherent crypto risk for Tezos: even with a solid track record and no historical incidents on record, the score reflects meaningful uncertainties around developer activity (0), potential supply inflation risk due to no hard supply cap, and mixed liquidity and regulatory factors. As with all crypto assets, price volatility, governance changes, and market sentiment swings can still drive outcomes independent of fundamentals.
