Zanshin is a word used commonly throughout Japanese martial arts to refer to a state of relaxed alertness. Literally translated, zanshin means “the mind with no remainder.” Zanshin is being constantly aware of your body, mind, and surroundings without stressing yourself. It is an effortless vigilance.

The Zanshin Dojo is a collective that brings the principles of mindfulness, awareness and vigilance from the traditional Japanese martial arts to the modern world of Web3 operations.

We are a small team of technical professionals who believe that Web3 can change the status quo and put more power in the hands of the users and creators. Our team discovered BTC in 2011 and presently operates independent infrastructure in support of the Agoric, Bitcoin, Celo, Ethereum, Pocket, Stacks and Zcash networks.

Supported Networks

Agoric is a proof-of-stake chain utilizing secure JavaScript smart contracts to rapidly build and deploy DeFi.

Bitcoin is the first decentralized digital currency. Since genesis in 2009, Bitcoin has proven itself to be a reliable, portable and resilient digital store of value.

Celo is a carbon neutral, fully EVM compatible proof-of-stake layer-1 protocol, featuring a fast ultralight client and built-in seigniorage stablecoins, collateralized by crypto and natural assets. Celo is in the process of transitioning to be an L2 network settling on Ethereum.

Ethereum is a programmable network that represents the most performant and resilient "world computer" to date.

Pocket is a decentralized network of RPC providers whose goal is to provide access to networks for users without centralized single points of failure.

Stacks is a layer2 network that settles on the Bitcoin chain, aiming to bring programmability to the original Bitcoin network.

Zcash is a private payments platform that leverages zero knowledge cryptography to address privacy hazards implicit in Bitcoin and nearly every other transparent digital currency.
