An EVM-compatible blockchain, XT Smart Chain (Chain ID 520) delivers fast, low-cost transactions for dApps in the XT ecosystem using the native XT token.
XT Smart Chain (XSC) is a public mainnet Layer‑1 that uses XT as its native gas token and is EVM‑compatible, so Solidity dApps, wallets, and tooling (e.g., MetaMask, Hardhat) work out of the box. Primary use cases include low‑fee DeFi (DEXs, lending, staking), NFT minting/marketplaces, GameFi, and cross‑chain asset settlement via bridges.
XT Smart Chain distinguishes itself with EVM compatibility plus a design optimized for low fees and fast confirmations around a native XT‑based gas economy, enabling frictionless deployment and bridging from other EVM networks. As of Sep 2025, official benchmarks on xsc.pub are limited, but public explorer snapshots commonly show block intervals ~2–5 seconds, simple transfers costing cents or less in XT, and throughput engineered for hundreds+ TPS; activity varies by dApp, so compare live gas, block time, TPS, and daily active addresses when evaluating against networks like BNB Chain or Polygon.
XT Smart Chain uses XT as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain XT by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge.
To bridge XT to XT Smart Chain, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select XT Smart Chain as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on XT Smart Chain 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 XT Smart Chain 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 XT on XT Smart Chain, ensure your wallet is connected to the XT Smart Chain network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of XT to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
