## What Is XDB CHAIN (XDB)?

XDB Is the native coin of XDB CHAIN and is a RWA. 
XDB CHAIN (XDB) is a protocol layer [blockchain](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/blockchain) also known as the technology "empowering brands and consumers of tomorrow". The platform was created to support the fast and affordable transfer of consumer digital assets such as branded currencies, [non-fungible tokens](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/non-fungible-token) (NFTs), [stablecoins](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/stablecoin) and more.

XDB CHAIN claims that the infrastructure is [decentralized](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/decentralized), [open-source](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/open-source) and easy-to-use. The network consists of connected “XDB CHAIN cores” run by individuals and entities around the world — similar to [blockchain nodes](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/node). With XDB CHAIN, users can create payment-related tools and devices. Users launch their digital assets via the XDB CHAIN network by linking assets to apps from the app store. [Tokenization](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/a-deep-dive-into-tokenization) of assets can be used to support audience engagement for brands.

The mission of XDB CHAIN is to encourage the project to the mass market by facilitating the liquidity of digital assets while integrating with existing user applications. XDB CHAIN simplifies the tokenization of assets through transactions and a trading layer for the point economy.

The project is a fork of [Stellar](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/stellar/) protocol and adopted the core features and capabilities of the latest Stellar network (v19), including the token certification service and on-chain trading (DEX).


## Who Are the Founders of XDB CHAIN?

The XDB CHAIN was founded by Daniele Mensi

What Makes XDB CHAIN Unique?

The project was and remains one of the fastest blockchains in the crypto industry. As a fork of the [Stellar (XLM)](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/stellar/) blockchain, XDB CHAIN supports an enterprise-grade blockchain with a focus on brands and enterprise use.

The XDB CHAIN ecosystem offers the following features: a [decentralized exchange](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/decentralized-exchange-dex) (DEX) that enables the tokenization and transfer of digital assets; matchmaking between buyers and sellers of digital assets on an [orderbook](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/order-book); facilitation of cross-asset payments and conversions for buyers and sellers that want to transact in different currencies.

XDB CHAIN claims to offer the following advantages: high processing speed of 10,000, this will increase to 1.19 million upon the launch of a layer 2 solution (currently in test)[TPS](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/transactions-per-second); eco-friendliness is the main direction in [Web 3.0](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/web-3-0), and the sustainability factor is not inherent in every blockchain. However, XDB CHAIN claims to be centered on sustainable methods for building an environmentally-friendly blockchain network; an Enterprise grade blockchain network that offers innovative functionality for organizations to interact with their customers.

## How Many XDB CHAIN (XDB) Coins Are There in Circulation?

XDB CHAIN has 17,197,670,082 coins in circulation with a commitment to burn tokens up to a target supply of 10 billion XDB coins overtime. This is achieved through a dual system called BCO (branded coins) and BBB (buz back and burn) which create a deflationary mechanism with connection to product integrations and utility. 

The main purposes of the XDB token are as follows: 

Access and authentication as a security feature — 10 XDB coins are requested to confirm accounts and their authenticity on the platform, and at least 10 XDB accounts must be saved and blocked before enabling the sending function. In order to exclude suspicious transactions, a user pays a fee of 0.00001 XDB for each transaction.

Payments and transaction fees — XDB makes fast and low-cost payments, and charges a fee of 0.00001 coins for transactions on the network. XDB also serves as an intermediate token for trading pairs of digital assets that don’t have a large direct market.


## How Is the XDB CHAIN (XDB) Network Secured?

The network reaches consensus through the Federated Byzantine [consensus mechanism,](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/consensus-mechanism) which means that from a network security point of view, XDB CHAIN works similarly to Stellar: it uses a Federated Byzantine Agreement (FBA) that is divided between application, bridge, federation and compliance servers.

The XDC Network is a blockchain developed to support trade finance and the tokenization of RWAs. A highly optimized, EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain, XDC Network reaches consensus through a delegated proof-of-stake (dPoS) mechanism, which allows for a transaction time of mere seconds, near zero gas fees, and a high number of transactions per second (TPS).

Secure, scalable, and highly efficient, the XDC Network powers a wide range of novel blockchain use cases and provides state-of-the-art infrastructure for enterprise-grade blockchain applications. With architecture that enables the creation of sovereign sub-networks, XDC Network is uniquely equipped to support those who require dedicated blockchain environments for enhanced permissions and control, such as government agencies, financial institutions, and businesses.

As of April 25, 2024, there are 312 XDC Network validator masternode candidates, of which 108 actively operate as validator masternodes, and the remainder are standby masternodes. Each masternode operator is required to stake 10M XDC.

A forthcoming upgrade to the consensus mechanism, dubbed XDC 2.0, is currently running on testnet. It and subsequent iterations of the XDC Network protocol will further enhance the security of the consensus mechanism and incorporate a novel "judiciary branch" into the consensus mechanism.

Developed by Princeton University's Pramod Viswanath, Hash Laboratories' Fisher Yu, and their team, XDC 2.0’s cutting-edge compliance technology will ensure unprecedented Byzantine fault tolerance (BFT) by holding validators accountable for their actions on an automated yet discretionary basis.

What Is Velas (VLX)?
Velas is a pioneering solana L1 Fork with Full EVM blockchain bridging the gap between EVM familiarity and unparalleled performance.

Velas is an highly unique dual-chain architecture, seamlessly merging the best of both worlds: the robust security and established developer ecosystem of the EVM with the lightning-fast transaction processing capabilities of Solana. This hybrid approach unlocks a treasure trove of possibilities for Ethereum projects seeking to escape congestion and scale to new heights.

The defining feature of Velas lies in its full EVM compatibility. Existing Ethereum smart contracts can be migrated seamlessly with a single click, eliminating the need for costly code rewrites and preserving the valuable expertise invested in the EVM ecosystem. This one-click migration paves the way for a smooth transition, allowing developers to leverage their existing skills and tools on a platform built for speed and scalability.

It leverages the power of Solana’s parallel transaction processing to deliver lightning-fast speeds exceeding 75,000 TPS. This translates to near-instantaneous transaction finality and minimal fees, a stark contrast to the congested and expensive environment of Ethereum. For dApps and users, this translates to a smoother, more efficient experience.

But speed is just the beginning. Velas is also:

Decentralized: No central authority controls the network. Power is in the hands of the community through a secure Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism.

Carbon-neutral: Velas is committed to sustainability, utilizing a green PoS mechanism that minimizes energy consumption.

Accessible: Building on Velas is a breeze with its extensive developer tools and EVM/Solidity support.
