Bitcoin Zero (BZX) is a triple fork of Bitcoin, Litecoin (a digital currency), and Hexxcoin (a privacy coin). Bitcoin Zero is a form of Bitcoin that includes the Lelantus protocol (a private payment protocol), instant block time, and masternodes (part of the infrastructure that sustains cryptocurrencies). Bitcoin Zero seeks to deliver bug-free security methods. The incorporation of the ZeroCoin protocol helps to ensure the bug-free security in Bitcoin Zero. Zerocoin is a privacy protocol that works as an add-on to the Bitcoin protocol to improve the anonymity of Bitcoin transactions.

As per the website, Bitcoin Zero's mission is to bring a more decentralized system to the world, while addressing various flaws. Privacy, financial monopoly, and economic inequality are among the concerns. All nodes within Bitcoin Zero have equal power and control; no nodes have more influence than others. A single person or company (i.e., a central authority) does not originate, maintain, or represent the BZX currency.

BZX public wallets are viewable by anyone, including the wallet's balance and how much currency has been received and given out. The wallet transparency covers senders' and receivers' public wallet addresses. BZX allows users to choose whether or not to be anonymous by creating a minting scenario in which the user determines the level of anonymity in a secure and decentralized manner. Furthermore, the Mint-and-Spend feature provides privacy to Bitcoin Zero, rather than everything being exposed to view via the public ledger.

Another aspect of Bitcoin Zero is the adoption of the Dark Wave Gravity. DWG is an algorithm designed to address certain flaws. DWG makes the adjustment of difficulty in an algorithm fast and nonlinear. DWG makes the mining algorithm secure. DWG also prevents multi-pool mining, which exploits coins only for benefit.

Bitcoin Zero was founded on August 31, 2018. The maximum supply of BZX is 99.9M coins.
