The Horizen ecosystem is rich with a wide choice of partners. We can find several tools, infrastructure-related partners, bridges, NFTs, wallets, security-related tools, API aggregators, oracles, DeFi services, and everything needed for the DAO and stablecoins on Horizen EON.
With the upcoming transition towards Horizen 2.0, it’s important to look once again at all these partners and make sure we know how to use them.
The tools
That’s the favorite section for all the developers who want to build on Horizen EON.
vfat.io
First, let’s start with a multiple-chain block explorer.
vfat.io permits you to check your transaction, address, a specific block, token or ENS on Horizen EON.
Just select Horizen EON on the list, and paste the item you would like to explore.
Chainlist
Chainlist is the easy way to connect your EVM wallet to Horizen EON.
With Chainlink, you won’t need anymore to enter the data manually.
Type “Horizen” in the search bar, and then click on “Add to MetaMask”
Thirdweb
Would you like to deploy some tokens on Horizen EON but you are not a developer?
Or you are a developer but you want to save time on your smart contract or dapp creation?
Thirdweb is made for you!
We have some tutorials on Horizen EON docs to help you.
Remix
Check your code, access the onchain contracts, and try your smart contracts by interacting with them before they are deployed on mainnets.
You can check this tutorial to create a to-do list with Remix IDE
Truffle
Truffle is a suite made for EVM developers. They help you to deploy smart contracts, blockchains, React component libraries, and simplified dapp development.
Check how to use Truflle with Horizen thanks to the Horizen EON documentation.
Hardhat
Hardhat includes a local Ethereum network designed for development allowing developers to deploy smart contracts, run tests and debug Solidity codes.
You can check how to use Hardhat with Horizen on the Horizen EON docs.
Commonwealth
Commonwealth gathers communities.
The platform is used to vote for ideas, discuss between internal and external community members, and fund some specific projects.
Infrastructure
Infrastructure is what is needed to enhance interoperability.
Layer Zero
Say welcome to interoperability with Layer Zero.
Here to facilitate interactions between chains, Layer Zero is made of an ecosystem with 99 dapps.
Learn more about Layer Zero and Horizen on the Horizen blog.
Ankr
Ankr proposes an RPC interface that is essential for interacting with nodes in a decentralized network. It allows developers, dApps, and users to query data, send transactions, and interact with smart contracts on the blockchain.
Find here the dedicated RPC for Horizen EON.
Flair
Flair offers reusable indexing primitives (such as fault-tolerant RPC ingestors, custom processors, and re-org-aware database integrations) to make it easy to receive, transform, store, and access your on-chain data.
1RPC
1RPC is a free service that protects Web3 users’ data from being exposed when they interact with the blockchain, all with just one click. It’s an RPC relay that provides on-chain verification. The security is backed by a special system that checks both the hardware and software to ensure everything is safe and trustworthy.
Bridges
Bridges are used to move tokens from one blockchain to another one.
Archon Bridge
The Archon bridge protocol facilitates the transfer of various cryptocurrencies including ETH, WBTC, WZEN, USDT, USDC, DAI, and LINK, between the Horizen EON network and the Ethereum and Avalanche networks.
Connect your MetaMask and go to the Archon Bridge to start.
Wanchain
Wanchain has a wide choice of blockchains and cryptocurrencies to bridge. Wanchain provides the infrastructure for 35 different blockchains and 114 digital assets.
The bridge is available for Horizen EON.
NFT
Kuswap is the marketplace to go for Horizen EON.
Wallets
Wallets are necessary if you want to use DeFi services. Wallets store your keys, protect them, and permit you to interact with dapps. Note that if you want to participate in several networks and airdrops, it’s recommended to have several wallets.
MetaMask
MetaMask is the most well-known browser wallet.
You can protect the addresses you use on dapps thanks to your Ledger. Follow the guide to learn how to do that.
You can also find some documentation about MetaMask on Horizen EON docs.
Rabby Wallet
Rabby Wallet is loved amongst mobile wallet users. EVM-chains-compatible, this wallet can interact will a lot of dapps.
WalletConnect
User experience is made easy with WalletConnect. It’s a tool for developers who want to bring seamless experiences to their users.
Rainbow
Less known than MetaMask and Rabby, Rainbow is getting more and more interoperability with dapps over time. Their focus is on user experience.
Safe
Safe Wallet’s key differentiator is multi-signature support combined with smart contract-based asset management, making it significantly more secure for organizations or individuals managing large amounts of crypto.
Math Wallet
Math Wallet’s key differentiator is its multi-chain compatibility. It can be used by more than 200 blockchains and not only EVM ones.
Security
Revoke.cash
When using dapps like Uniswap or OpenSea you have to permit them to spend your tokens and NFTs. This is called token approval. If you don’t revoke these approvals, the dapp can spend your tokens forever. Revoke.cash permits you to revoke approvals.
Revoke.cash made a video to explain the process.
Immunefi
Immunefi is another place for developers who want to participate in some projects and be rewarded for their efforts.
A Horizen bug bounty is available.
API
APIs like Covalent and Tatum make blockchain development easier by providing ready-made tools. They save developers from the hassle of writing complex code to interact with different blockchains. With these APIs, you can access blockchain data or build apps faster and more easily. They support multiple blockchains, meaning you don’t need to learn each one separately. It’s like having shortcuts to create powerful crypto tools!
Covalent
Covalent’s key feature is its unified API, which gives developers access to rich, multi-chain blockchain data without needing to understand or interact with different blockchain protocols individually.
You can find Horizen on Covalent.
Tatum
On Tatum’s side, the goal is to simplify blockchain app development by offering pre-built functionalities like smart contract deployment, wallet management, and transaction automation across multiple blockchains.
Access Horizen EON’s RPC nodes, APIs, and more tools on Tatum
.
Oracles
Oracles are used to bring off-chain data — data that exists outside the blockchain — into the blockchain ecosystem, allowing smart contracts to interact with real-world information like prices, weather, or events.
Pyth
Pyth specializes in providing high-fidelity, real-time market data, mainly from traditional financial sources (like stock exchanges and trading firms), making it ideal for DeFi projects that rely on accurate, low-latency price feeds.
Band Protocol
Band Protocol focuses on flexibility and scalability, offering a decentralized oracle network that pulls data from a wide range of off-chain sources. It’s blockchain-agnostic, meaning it supports multiple chains and use cases beyond just financial data, such as sports, weather, and gaming data.
DeFi
Welcome n the best part. The most interesting for end users who would like to interact with several dapps on the DeFi space.
Here, you will find dapps and ways to use your $ZEN on the DeFi space.
Interport
This is the place to swap and bridge your assets in one transaction. They have a wide choice of blockchains and tokens.
SpookySwap
Spooky swap is a swap, allows you to change your ZEN for ETH for example, staying on Horizen EON. You can also use their liquidity pools and stake your ZEN there.
Ascent Exchange
Ascent allows you to swap your ZEN to a selective list of tokens. Swap your ZEN for AEX, DAI, LINK, USDC, USDT, WAVAX, WBTC, WETH and WZEN with Ascent, on Horizen EON.
You can also leave your ZEN on a liquidity pool and get rewarded depending on your stake.
Yuzu
Yuzu is a small lending and borrowing platform where you find BTC, ETH, USDC, and ZEN. Get rewarded by lending ZEN, or borrow some for your new trades.
This is not financial advice, just an example to show how to use lending and borrowing tools.

Auros
Auros is a global algorithmic trading and market-making firm. The permitted to increase widespread access to $ZEN in preparation for the launch of the EON ecosystem
DAO
Snapshot is the place to go to participate in the Horizen DAO. Vote in favor or against ZenIPs thanks to this well-used tools.
I hope that this presentation of partners permitted you to learn more about DeFi and how Horizen EON EVM is interoperable / usable.
Would you like to see other partners on Horizen EON when we migrate to Horizen 2.0?
Let me know who you would like to see in the ecosystem.
