TNZO
The token that pays for the network.
TNZO pays every network fee and settles every transaction on Tenzro. Operators stake it to take on roles and earn it for the work they serve. Holders use it to govern the protocol.

Pay how you like
Stablecoins in, TNZO underneath.
Users and agents can pay in stablecoins, including network gas, through Bridge.xyz wallets, x402 and MPP. Abstraction layers built by the Foundation, independent developers and partners handle the conversion, so nobody has to hold TNZO to use the network. Settlement and security stay in TNZO.
Governance
Stewarded by the Foundation, governed by holders.
The Tenzro Foundation is the governing body for TNZO. Protocol parameters, treasury grants and upgrades are decided on chain, weighted by stake.
