Zilliqa (ZIL) is a blockchain platform that uses sharding technology to improve scalability and run smart contracts.
ZIL uses the Ethash mining algorithm, which supports GPUs and some ASIC miners. Due to ZIL’s special mining mechanism, solo mining is typically uneconomical. BTC.com currently offers merged mining for ZIL and ETC.
