An EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain using XDPoS for ~2-second finality and low fees, optimized for tokenized trade finance and real-world asset settlement.
XDC Network is an EVM-compatible Layer-1 using XDPoS 2.0 that targets enterprise-grade settlement for tokenized trade finance, real‑world assets (RWA), and cross-border payments. It delivers ~2s block times, up to ~2,000 TPS, and sub-cent gas fees (often <$0.0001 per transfer) and integrates ISO 20022 messaging via services like Impel plus R3 Corda interoperability. Network usage varies by market conditions but typically records tens of thousands of on-chain transactions daily across DeFi, RWA, and trade-finance apps.
XDC is differentiated by its XDPoS 2.0 consensus with double validation, slashing, and forensic monitoring for fast, low-latency finality while remaining energy‑efficient and EVM-compatible (chain ID 50). Compared to many L1/L2 EVM networks, it pairs near-instant blocks (~2s) and ultra-low fees (<$0.0001 avg tx) with enterprise rails—TradeFinex/TFD Initiative for trade-finance tokenization and Corda interoperability—tailored for regulated financial use cases.
XDC Network uses XDC as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain XDC by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge.
To bridge XDC to XDC Network, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select XDC Network as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on XDC Network you can use thirdweb, which provides an easy way to build, monetize and scale your apps, games or agents. You can find detailed guides and documentation on https://portal.thirdweb.com to get started quickly.
To add XDC Network to your wallet, you can connect your wallet and click on [Add to Wallet] button at the top of the page. Alternatively, you can add the network manually using the RPC URL and chain details and add it to your wallet's network settings.
To send XDC on XDC Network, ensure your wallet is connected to the XDC Network network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of XDC to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
