What Is HECO and How Can I Use it?

HECO is a blockchain developed by Huobi, one of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges, using HPoS (a combination of PoA and PoS).

HECO supports smart contracts and is EVM-compatible, allowing developers to deploy smart contracts and build DApps on HECO conveniently. Compared with Ethereum mainnet, the transaction fees are lower and confirmation time is faster.

How Does the HECO Chain Work?

HECO adopts HPoS (a combination of PoA and PoS), which allows holders of its native token, HT, to vote for 21 active validators for on-chain transaction validation and block production.

HECO produces 1 block every 3 seconds, and every 200 blocks is an epoch. At the end of each epoch, the system will update the list of active validators.
