Latest release: Nexa-qt v2.1.0.0 for Windows
Nexa is an experimental financial blockchain and digital currency. It updates the Bitcoin codebase to enable more transactions per block, advanced scripting, and miner validated (native) fungible and non-fungible tokens.
Bitcoin can be considered digital gold, while Ethereum is a massively redundant computer that primarily implements financial contracts.
Nexa positions itself differently -- like Bitcoin, it has a sound money coin distribution, but it supports use as a currency via its massive layer one scalability via dynamic block sizes, double-spend notifications, deep unconfirmed transaction chains, and 2 minute average block discovery times.
It has smart contracting features like Ethereum, but is not a full turing-complete language. This and its Bitcoin-like UTXO model allows for massive parallelization of transaction processing. Financial and cryptographic functions (namely tokens, "fenced" nexa, and large integers) are implemented as fundamental blockchain primitives, allowing for very size and time efficient implementations of financial operations.
Nexa's primary goal is to be a financial blockchain -- to allow diverse financial instruments to be created, owned, tracked, and to interact on a peer-to-peer, permissionless, trust-free, pseudo-anonymous, and decentralized ledger.
