# Overview

Zentachain is a privacy-focused blockchain project securing IoT communication and data storage through decentralized infrastructure.

## Overview

Zentachain is a privacy-focused IoT blockchain networking project. We connect decentralized network dynamic routing and AI mesh networking, with a strong emphasis on protecting user privacy and ensuring the confidentiality of communications. Zentachain utilizes hybrid encryption techniques, combining multiple encryption methods to enhance security.

**Zentalk** is our secure and decentralized messaging application — an end-to-end encrypted messenger built on a mesh network of independent validator nodes. Using Signal Protocol, 3-hop onion routing, zero-knowledge proofs, and post-quantum cryptography, Zentalk protects user privacy and maintains connectivity even offline. Available now at [zentalk.chat](https://www.zentalk.chat/).

**Zentamesh** is a decentralized mesh network that enables secure communication and data sharing between devices. Zentamesh relies on nodes, called Zentanodes, to relay encrypted data across the network, ensuring reliable connectivity even in challenging conditions. The network uses AI-powered routing with Q-learning and Artificial Neural Networks to optimize performance.

**Zentanode** is the hardware that powers the Zentamesh network. Operators earn CHAIN tokens monthly for maintaining the network infrastructure and enabling offline communication within a 6km range.

**CHAIN** is the native ERC-20 utility token of the Zentachain ecosystem with a fixed supply of 5,000,000 tokens. It is used for staking, governance, service payments, and node rewards.

Overall, Zentachain provides a decentralized and secure solution for IoT networking and communication. We reward users who participate in the network with CHAIN tokens, encouraging them to support and contribute to the growth of the Zentachain ecosystem.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.zentachain.io/zentachain/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
