Any plan for airdrop or bounty?

Total coins: 100,000,000,000 XDC  that's the same amount with ripple

Hi. No, we are a tool for financial markets. We will soon open up bug bounty section.

---

Yes. As the value of trades grows on our system we need XDC value to be in line with FIAT values.

interesting ! I will buy some, will see what happend in the futur :)

what will be the cost of 1000 XDCs ? (IN ETHERIUM)

Thanks ;-)

japnese translation if needed
thanks

want to reserve russian tranlstion if you will need.

Joking?
Xedoscoin is not dead, not defunct?!?!. Maybe your scam is born dead. What is giving to the world your project - 100% premine, next time try 110 percent.

any updates/news ?

http://xinfin.net/index.php?threads/xinfin-xdc-network-roadmap.18/

 I am interested in this project, and certainly want to receive a lot of info, now i kown update of this project ,so keep your hard work sir

can i reserve indonesian translation of this thread for the first time?? but if you needed.. it can be more interesting if you share the info in other forum..

this coin is shitcoin

What is your distribution plan? I want more info about the escrow and the other 20%.


How would you convince miners to spend their powers on your coin when it's 100% premine and they will get only transaction fees?!

We sold about 3Billion tokens in pre-ICO to raise about $1.5 million. We believed these funds were enough to complete major development.

We are shortly going live with tradefinex.org which is a peer to peer financing platform for communitites, enterprises and Governments to eliminate trade inefficiencies using XinFins XDC01 Hybrid Protocol. The Hybrid state maintains private and public state on the same network. This is particularly important for sensitive financial data and projects.

We will be releasing 7 Billion tokens in phasewise manner to evolve the XDC protocol for decentralised peer to peer financing.

XinFin is evolved from ethereum platform due to which we are able to code smart contracts for allocating XDC token payouts for validator nodes. So they don’t have to burn electricity. Validator nodes also need to hold certain amount of XDC in escrow.

10 percent tokens are in hedge pool that provides intrinsic mechanism for price stability in trades in volatile markets.

Here is token distribution:

25% for core team - in escrow
10% for phasewise ICO of which 3% have been sold to pre ICO. 7% to be released in phasewise manner for evolving Blockchain.
15% for Long term organisational hires
5% for humanitarian
10% for hedge pool for intrinsic guarantee on trades
35% for master nodes allocated using smartcontracts. Master nodes are available for institutions and financiers who risk their capital for financing.

where you are working in india? can i get details?

Why? What are the reason(s) to support that this is not just some baseless FUD?

Seems like project backed by Indians, I will not spend a single penny in this project not because it is driven by Indian tards but because the team is not delivering any announcement here.

Any good news about this coin? ::)

They say they will shape a healthier, more reliable,
reputable and sustainable future for the crypto community worldwide.Still huge amount of coins but if big investors comes in we can believe.
Its great team and they are active on social networks.Coins are only 0.00395 so its still cheap and worth investing little and keep for longer time

This project seems to be going fine, but why is there no regular update from team, manger of this thread, or any information as related to this project? Or is there any other thread?

Thanks for answer.

100 billions coins and only 6 billions for crowdsale? And hardcap is 34.7k ETH? Its too big overall hardcap!

Whitepaper link does not work.

Such huge supply ... owww shit

why is there no regular update related to this project? it seams this project will have not big community.

Why do you say this coin is PoW if its 100% premined? Is that normal to say? For me it looks weird and would like an explanation if possible.

Total coins: 100,000,000,000 XDC
 value coin crowdsale ? bounty ? airdrop ?

It seems that this project was not very interesting in relation to the disclosure here at bitcointalk. Few posts, few interests in relation to this project

No discussion going on here? Is this project still alive?

I see your ad in coinmarketcap and I am interested in your project but why there is no news or updates from the developer team in this forum?

This project is doing too much advertisement on coinmarketcap seems like project endorsed by Tai Lopez, Anyways any bounty available for reddit users?

Where are the LinkedIn profiles of all the team members? not even a single picture of the team members on the website? How will anyone trust this new project without an escrow for the funds?

I am not so confident about this project with so big circulating supply .They are not doing bounty campaign.Dont know know how they are going to promote this coin

100000000000 max supply ? Good luck with that SCAM !

reserved urdu translations, if needed.

Any bounty for this I saw an ad

Why are people hating on this ICO? This hybrid Blockchain can help with real world scenarios. Also, they are active on Telegram, Twitter and have good info on their YouTube channel. This is not a quick pump and dump token. The TradeFinex exchange will help investors like you and I and provide institutional backers with plenty to raise funds.

Nice project. I see. Already contributed in this coins. Let's see, let's see....  despite huge supply this project have great future I think. Best Wishes.

This project keeps silence for so long. Meanwhile i found very promising partnership with serious software company http://www.ramco.com/newsroom/press/releases/feb-18/ramco-partners-with-xinfin-to-provide-blockchain-solutions/
may be this return community interest to this thread.  ;D

Good project, poor marketing what a Mess

any information as related to this project? Or is there any other thread?think that its a quite interesting

Didn't see any response to my earlier question and the OP looks to be away for more than 10 days.I guess this project is close to dead and you guys don't need to waste your time getting more details.

The project is not dead. There is an entire world outside of Bitcointalk. I would encourage you to join their telegram community: https://t.me/xinfintalk Follow their twitter: https://twitter.com/xinfinf  or visit their reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/xinfin/ (although their reddit is not very active either). You can also visit their community forum: http://www.xinfin.net

They have just completed and sold out their XDCE ICO, have Roger Ver (love him or hate him) as an adviser and have several partnerships. They have already launched the beta of their TradeFinex platform which will be powered by XDC tokens. What they are building is incredible!

To answer your question, here is the linkedin of the organization: https://www.linkedin.com/company/xinfin/

I would recommend looking into XinFin organization a little further before speaking false claims sir.  

If you would like to speak to the founders they are active on Telegram.

I see your project is still quite new and hope it will develope strongly in the future. If I have a chance, I will be a part of your community

Wish you very happy trading !

XDCE coin (XDCE) market added
Dear users!
XDCE coin (XDCE) added to the listing.
XDCE/BTC market is available for trading.
https://mercatox.com/exchange/XDCE/BTC
Have a good trades !

Hi friends!

XinFin is now listed on Bitgur: https://bitgur.com/coin/XDCE (https://bitgur.com/coin/XDCE)! You can add it to customizable watchlist and create advanced price alerts.

Where are the devs of this project? Did they already disappear??

people actually think 5000% roi on POS is good for a coin? Hyperstake more like hyperinflation

Where this jump in price comes on that fast ? 160% in a day is crazy !!! We are not listed on some of the biggest exchanges yet?Anybody knows?

can you explain me about this,
Total coins: 100,000,000,000 XDC
Pre-mine : 100% (80% in Escrow)
because, the premine amount is too huge for me ? and what for all the premine above ?

Why does XinFin has a huge combined supply of 100 Billion coins for XDC/XDCE?
Proof of Work driven public networks consume huge amount of electricity, have high transaction costs and has huge latency times. This makes them unsuitable for any real world mission critical applications. In the long term, a more practical consensus mechanisms will be built on Stake driven consensus. XinFin network is currently designed on PBFT+stake driven consensus which means participating entities such as masternodes and institutions have to stake their tokens. This simply means that in-spite of having 100 Billion tokens, most will be staked and locked for running masternodes, private subnetworks and various financial applications. Also the tokens have release schedule.

I would like to know if Is Alphaex exchange the only place where you can swap XDC - XDCE?

42 million market cap listed on coinmarketcap, but that only accounts for 3% of the total coins which are circulating. 

Hey, as of now it is the only place to swap.

Why is this jump in price so fast ?Whats going on with XDCE?
COSS exchange is coming on tomorrow but this happened two days ago and its still rising

I'm interesting to this project and i want to be a part of it. From which point I can start? I hope to answer me soon... Thanks!

Hi sawsaw987jig, today we are going to List at COSS.io exchange. Other Exchanges are listed at Page 1.

wow, amazing, uh?

                                                                          

inFin lists XDCE on Singapore's biggest exchange COSS.IO on Apr 22. Be top 50 volume traders and win 12.5 Mil XDCE in the split pool.

https://coss.io/        

                                                           http://i64.tinypic.com/4rxcgx.jpg

When all the other crypts have a substantial increase but it's not with XDCE, does this project you think would be good with Total coins: 100,000,000,000. I was hesitant to buy this token.

On Apr 26, 2018 from 11 am to 12 pm CT. Webinar with Xinfin CTO Kharan Bharadwaj, RamcoSystems Global Head - Supply Chain & Logistics Business Unit and Blockchain Advisor and Consultant David Freuden. Check out: https://twitter.com/XinfinF/status/984459306274713600

https://twitter.com/XinfinF/status/988300101276897280   XDC01- #XinFin's #HybridBlockchain #Protocol For #Enterprise #Applications in Comparison with BTC, ETH, Ripple, Hyperledger, Corda

Non-biased analysis: Clif High warns XinFin has many competitors that can easily overtake them in his report.

IBM and big banks on WallStreet have the same technology and doing the same thing as XinFin and they have the big money to implement and chew up and overthrow the little XinFin project (it will be very hard for them to win against these big company competitors like IBM/banks/Wallstreet firms that have a big financial war chest to overthrow them).

Also with 100 billion XinFin tokens and low number of token holders and no social media coverage, many red flags on this token.

Not attacking, but don't get caught up in all the xinfin to win hype, when its the billion dollar backed companies that will win in this space, as they have the financial power.

Would take profits to at least get your ICO money back with some profit to at least eliminate all risk in the leftover tokens going forward, as highly likely the competitors with billions of dollars will win, not xinfin in the end, as it doesn't have the financial power to beat their financially stronger competitors.

Lastly, some mistakenly compare XinFin to Ripple which is laughable, as Ripple has billions of dollars and connected with rich banks, unlike XinFin with mere millions and non-profit.

These are all the main reasons WHY the vast market has vastly rejected XinFin (truth will hurt some).

Stop creating new Accounts to spread false information. You are the same Guy which Spams also our Reddit! Please Focus on your Project rather then trying to Insult this great one! This Newbies trying to spread FUD :D :D  
Our Community is growing daily and is getting bigger and bigger.

To The Topic Money: We hit our hardcap in our ICO, so there is enough Room to Develop our Project ;).

To the Point with Billion dollar backed Companys, check out this: "Ramco Systems, part of a $1 Billion conglomerate announced to build Blockchain solutions for its 500+ enterprise clients in Aviation, Logistics and Human resources using XinFin Hybrid Blockchain based out of Singapore."

http://www.ramco.com/newsroom/press/releases/feb-18/ramco-partners-with-xinfin-to-provide-blockchain-solutions/



In comparison to many other Coins, Xinfin has XDC and it has its utility and is not just for speculation ;). It will be used on their Tradefinex.org Platform and as gas on tradechain.
To know what its about have a look at this Videos: Tradefinex: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0DF2A5ssk8

XinFin to attend @coindesk's #Consensus2018- The Blockchain Technology Summit in NewYork. Check out the Twitter Announcement: https://twitter.com/XinfinF/status/992339451211931649

All XinFin did was fork off JP Morgan's Quorum blockchain and now trying to make it their own, misrepresenting they came up with the technology, and they created 100 XinFin tokens and only 2200 holders and using deceptive press releases to manipulate people. If you investigate the team behind XinFin, you will understand why most people in the crypto world has avoided and ran away from them. People need to DYOR because JP Morgan, IBM and a host of other people are using the same blockchain and technology that XinFin STOLE from JP Morgan. Everything XinFin does is full of deception and you wonder why so many people are negative towards them. Take your money and run people!

Looking forward to the upcoming of this project. I hope you will publish the next products soon devs

Firstly, Quorum is open source and there is no question of 'stealing'.

Secondly, we make enterprise applications, for that we use a number of enterprise blockchains including Fabric(IBM) and Quorum(JP Morgan). We have been in close touch with top members of BOTH teams. So this accusation is laughably ignorant.

Thirdly, the IBM blockchain is a totally different blockchain than Quorum. Ironic that you're encouraging other people to 'research' when you need to understand a number of basic things in the blockchain ecosystem.

Please read our literature and educate yourself.

Have a good day.

I see this project has great development, although I've been late to invest, I would join in the bounty, I hope can still be followed. Hopefully worth the investment.

Hello!
I have a question regarding further plans on the listing on the big exchanges.
Do You plan this soon and if Yes could You tell us the probable time when it is expected?

XinFin is really a promising project and has lots of space to growth in the nearest future!

Hi coinlawyer, thanks for your kind words.  :)

To Exchanges: I can just comment that we are working on that. Exchanges want/need to Announce listings first.

Hello, XinFin community!

XDC trading is now available on ERC20 DEX: http://erc20.exchange. Good trading to all of you!

In the last few days, saw no buyers in the order book at coss - no buyers and over 7-8 million sellers on the sell order book. Is this why XinFin only has about 2000 token holders and 100 billion premined tokens and almost everyone is avoiding it? Idex is down and only a few buyers left at forkdelta.
Never saw anything like this before in crypto and raises many red flags.

XinFin on forkdelta here:

https://forkdelta.github.io/#!/trade/0x41ab1b6fcbb2fa9dced81acbdec13ea6315f2bf2-ETH

Very odd. Good luck all.

You dont get tired of creating new Accounts? ;D . You wont get anything through that!
Your Information is False, also i don't think anyone in here believes your red Flags.. We are a legit Project, see the following articles as Proof: http://www.ramco.com/newsroom/press/releases/feb-18/ramco-partners-with-xinfin-to-provide-blockchain-solutions/

Hi, we are working on Exchange listings. Such Exchanges need to make the first Announcement. XDCE has just been listed on top 25 Exchange TopBtc: https://topbtc.com/home/Market/index/market/ETH/coin/XDCE.html

The coin value is currently low.After adding to the large cryptocurrency exchanges and the overall growth of the market-the price will be able to fly to the moon !

A pump and dump coin... It just annoys me, that people buy into these scams... Also we need to safe each other from these scams...

Scams keep popping up all the time. The same story, over and over again..

When does the development start? What kind of weird business is this?
Getting really tired of these scam coins.. With big promises, just to seduce us into buying useless shares.
Price getting lower and lower. I wonder when it will end probably never.

Thanks for the update! :)

„In Conversation: S.V. Sukumar, senior advisor at XinFin, a blockchain-based platform for infrastructure investment and trade finance, talks to Ben Robinson, deputy head of research at OMFIF. They discuss the ability of blockchain technology to provide finance solutions for projects that banking institutions are unable to take up given post-crisis disintermediation. The benefits of reducing the costs and inefficiencies of conventional funding sources, which suffer from significant paperwork, information barriers, and lengthy compliance and due diligence requirements, could be transformational for industries from supply chain logistics and financial services to energy systems and others. “

Kucoin Exchange introduces a voting campaign on telegram for listing coins on its exchange and we feel proud to announce XinFin’s XDCE is under the radar of voting.

Want to see us listed on KuCoin Exchange? Get the full scoop on how to vote for us. Medium: https://medium.com/@social_75814/steps-for-voting-xdce-to-get-listed-on-kucoin-exchange-208035f30e07

The coin does not have a wallet? just a web wallet? the development of a wallet is not conducted?

Hey! For XDC you can use the ewallet or the Android wallet https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xdc.xdcwallet&hl=en for the moment. More to come soon.

For XDCE you can use any ERC-20 compatible wallet.

XinFin is pleased to announce it's bounty campaign. XinFin aims to build a strong community for Xinfin platform and XDC protocol. Join the campaign today:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4708853.msg42511224#msg42511224

All right, I've been to participate here and hope many investors also invest here, hopefully this project can run well and give good benefits to the people who join in it.

Thanks for informing us!! Coinexmarket didn't reach our Quality standards. We didn't went into a Cooperation. It seems like coinexmarket is full of fake Volume.

Why not go to these big exchanges?
It is very difficult to buy and sell XDCE, because there is no big exchange, why not apply for a big exchange?

further, he said his quite selective on which projects he advise. Funny thing is that, for me personally, it was the fact that Roger is an advisor that brought me into Xinfin rabbit hole...
"he gets pitched every single day".... Golden!

the team have applied to many major exchanges. after that it is up to the exchange whether to list, we just have to wait back for their response which takes time. i dont know if they have applied to the one u provided though

The block chain project of the Internet of things is always expected. The prospect of the XinFin development is good. We expect the XDC project team to strengthen the market propaganda and bring more good news for development.

XinFin has designed and developed the world's first hybrid blockchain.
This platform has been integrated with dApps built in XDC Hybrid blockchain or create your own.

I hope that with tighter regulations across the Globe, quality projects like XINFIN will not be victimized by dodgy exchanges and I also hope you ge tincluded in the good multi wallets like ETHOS. Also check out PUNDI X POS SYSTEM. Maybe you can also collaborate with them in partnership so they can add your token to their XPOS machines? That way people with XINFIN can instantly spend their tokens in stores or people can buy XINFIN directly through a retailer in the future too! This could be great exposure for your brand as well.

exciting stuff! and what about the amount of votes? are we close to the Abyss in votes? also how does it work? does only rank 1 get listed?
Got my parents to finally decide to put money down to invest in XDC.Spreading the word

some poeple blame me some of people push me to create again, what should i done guys? i just a normal people who has many of lack
and also always learning to be better cheers

My videos are meant to bring the community together, my friend. I get e-mail all the time from people who first found out about XinFin throught the videos.
Also, people here are in different times zones. Some Crypto Mentor99 fans don't always see my videos.
I have people lined up at my front door right now wanting XinFin tokens.

Thanks for your kind words! We will look into it :)!

The low price of the coin does not reflect hard work of team, but rather the weak use case for the coin. Even if expected $10 million worth of loans that is already committed to come on the platform does effectively show up in September, how much DEB fees can you charge on that? Maybe something like $100,000 worth of DEB with $90,000 coming straight back on the market after service providers have received payment. Net utility demand for $10,000 worth of DEB will hardly move the coin. The picture may change as we learn more details about the practical coin usage, but most investors base their buying/selling on the known information...

XinFin is actually a good idea project. Having started trading, having big partners ... has created more confidence in XinFin's purpose. At this point, I think you should have the solution to make  XinFin more popular!

INR pair is good news. Helps manage crpyto downturns better. No more xdce-btc-usdt-btc-xdce. Only xdce-inr-xdce

Hi camargoherrera, we are working on more Exchange listings. There have been several new Exchange listings in the last months. It’s an ongoing process. But bigger Exchanges require to announce a listing first.

Xinfin Announces New Partnership:

https://medium.com/xinfin/xinfin-hybrid-blockchain-allies-with-changerinc-f1e8c0713b46

If you like to make a standard video review about your project on my youtube channel as a form of promoting it and advertising it, kindly pm me

Private chains are great, but no incentive really... Big enterprises will obviously want to control and secure: data, assets and other info. Let's see what happens in the next six months!

We are at ico price in ETH ,right? Why people dumped their XDCE and didnt wait for expected "annoucements" and "partnerships"? Seems like theres no demand right now

Everyone can choose and handle how they like. However, we are focused for real word usage. And there is big demand. Focused on long term and steady progress. This kind of commitment yields the best results. Some short term traders are leaving because they get impatient.

Recently we announced a new partnership: https://medium.com/xinfin/xinfin-hybrid-blockchain-allies-with-changerinc-f1e8c0713b46

Also make sure to follow our social media channels, there are some exciting things ahead! Stay tuned!

Chris Neill, Head of American Development, XinFin interviewed Roger Ver yesterday.  You can watch the video or read the entire interview on medium and YouTube. Use your headphones for full clarity on what Roger Ver has to say about XinFin and more.

Read the entire Interview:
https://medium.com/xinfin/roger-ver-bitcoin-jesus-xinfin-advisor-interviewed-by-chris-neill-of-xinfin-io-e1d165b21dc4

Watch it here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6F4iYzF1ew&feature=youtu.be

he is an advisor not a marketing guy for Xinfin. He agreed to be an advisor for us among hundreds and hundreds of requests is great enough.  There are two take aways from this interview 1. Confirms that he is an advisor to Xinfin which many ppl doubted. 2. Big indication from Chris on future tie up of Xinfin with BCH or tagging along with BCH and reaching out/exposure to huge BCH community.

 Been buying since a few months but have a question you guys can answer in suppose. Will there be a staking system or some kind of reward system if you lock/save your coins? Thanks in advance if this is a stupid queation sorry then.

i think it might be because we are the only ones who hear the good news. we should all try our best to spread the word. people arent gonna find this project on their own
The good news just doesn't stop with this project
How is it staying so low key?

It was great that Chris hosted an AMA with Roger, but I don't see any value added, as he didn't specify his plans for XinFin.  This was more of a bitcoin cash promotion AMA.  Still he's not really involved in the project was just briefed by Chris on XinFin development.  Whats Rogers intent and what value will he now add with him being back briefed on developments

The economic studies by OMFIF combined with XinFin's blockchain technology will help create a global consortium of GPIs working towards sustainable infrastructure and a better world.

Hi camargoherrera,

There will be nodes.
Requirements for nodes are tentatively from 10m - 100m. Every level has its rewards and benefits. Depending on the type of node.
More details will be released as we come closer to global masternode set up which is on target for Q4 2018. If you are interested please send an email to: info@xinfin.org

I apologize, i thought we knew everyone in our community, who knwos that our admin team have a very strong track record of finding out info that they dont know the answer to. I shouldnt have assumed that you were one of our regular telegram members that would know our team well enough to know that the answer would be provided. My fault.
But to answer your question, yes the road map will be updated

i guess it starts becoming more complicated when you are handling thousands and even millions, sometimes not even your own money, its better to just except a loss and then deal with it. rather than see it all go
i mean we are all very bulish i think for the longterm for crypto, say 10-20-30 years from now. but people have clients who arent patient like that :D we can just sit and wait but some cant

Well I feel like I don’t have a choice but to wait it out because selling at a loss makes zero sense. I put in what I wasn’t afraid to lose so I have no reason to sell regardless of how bad it gets

i have been in XDCE since the start, and increasing holdings. I think staying away from the main exchanges has been a wise decision, allowing organic growth for a long term stability. Investors here should be looking at the 2-3 year timeframe...

I am searching tokent for investment. Recently with friends invested in the world of Wi-Fi, and binance. Everyone is happy) And what have you invested in lately? What can u advice me?

Intresting coin, blockchain can connect with any type of real world business.

Watch the latest Skype interview of Youtuber CryptoMentor99 with XinfinF's Advisor David Freuden. David shared his knowledge on XinFin & Tradefinex.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ehf3DY1ZpIs

Buy XinFin's XDC with Tether's USDT on AlphaEx.Net.
AlphaEx.Net to add new trading pair of USDT-XDC. Deposits of USDT on AlphaEx.Net Wallet is live. Trading on new pair will be live in next 2 days.

As of my knowledge, there are no concrete plans for that. You will hear in this group about it, if there should be such an promo for voting. We are working on different exchange listings.

---

Great, I'm sure you do. I suppose these are not only tradefinex issues but issues that concern the entire crypto space on the way to mass adoption.
And that's exactly the reason why I invested in XinFin

so the XinFin bounty has ended successfully right? only 4 weeks the project is running. I wonder where will this token market be registered and what are the team's plans for this next XinFin project?

Hi brokens, the Bounty is handled separately.
All information is in the Bounty thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4708853.msg42511224#msg42511224.

You can find our Roadmap here: https://www.xinfin.io (at the point: “Milestone & Roadmap”)
Many things on the roadmap will be ongoing after they have been initiated. Like onboarding different institutions... this is an all-time Engagement.

The actual list of Exchanges for XDC/E: https://www.xinfin.io

What are the monetary benefits to owning a masternode? Do they pay out like dash masternode?

Question.. if some had 1 billion xdce and hodl. Would that mean that there would be only 14 billion xdc which would be circulating on the trade finex platform

If Xinfin has a plan to execute it, I am ready to work towards it on the ground. It will bring much needed funds for Kerala while helping Xinfin get some eyeballs.
It will also prove a use case of XDCE and make ppl understand benefits of blockchain. Fed up of ppl telling me Crypto is Ponzi scheme😷

 through blockchain technology is very unique. Honestly I need to learn more to find out how it works. But it is an interesting project.

Hi, Masternodes and nodes may provide token rewards for the trusted individuals that run them. Tentative requirements are 10m to 100m XDC tokens depending on the type of node.
More details will be released as we come closer to global masternode set up which is on target for Q4 2018.
If you are interested please email info@xinfin.org with your profile.

Please follow our social media channels to get informed when more details get released.

The xchc blockchain technology is unique. Project ico not? Can we exploit XDC? After the ICO ended, what is the next team plan? And maybe in 2 or 3 years xdc will be more valuable.

Hi, 6B is the circulating supply(2.3B XDC and 3.7B XDCE at the moment). 15B available supply and 100B total supply. The 15B includes the hedge pool.
So yes, if someone would buy 1B and hold, the circulating supply would be still 6B because he can sell it any time(if it’s not locked like for masternodes). But yeah, effectively there would be 1B less.

Hi Haibui999, thanks for your interest. Check out our Roadmap:  https://www.xinfin.io (scroll down to „Milestone& Roadmap). Also make sure to check our Telegram Update-Channel: https://t.me/xinfin ,in order to see what we have done so far and get you in sync with our latest developments.

True story: Just got an e-mail from someone saying, "I'm considering buying 5,000,000 XDCE. Why is this a good on my part." I'm thankful that XinFin is getting more and more attention.

What’s the max supply of XDCE? CMC shows total supply is 15B whereas one of the pictures shared here states that the max supply is 100B, please can you suggest? Thanks

total supply at the moment is 15B. each year a small portion is released that gradually decreases each year. 100B is the max there will ever be, but it will take decades until it reaches that amount (in circulation is approx 6B)

The protocol u struggle to bring into existence is impressive yes, now how about that u will never be able to get the thing out the door? I think the wisest move would be to query Mr. Kartikeya Bhargava. I know the guy is real and has some knack at coding, thereby my request is to send him here and stimulate into more detailed talking. He does not seem talkative.

Hi Logictense, thanks for sharing your thoughts about the XDC protocol! In regards to your suggestion, I have send an inquiry to Mr.Bhargava to join this discussion Thread as time permits.
We would love to answer any kind of question in our Telegram live Support channel: https://t.me/xinfintalk. Or in here, feel free to ask anytime.  :)

Meet Confidence Nyirenda Ecosystem Development Africa, XinFin at Harare, Africa on Sep 1 to learn about trade, cryptocurrency, XinFin & XDC

Join the  Meetup, learn how to exchange XDC also get started with wallet & Free XDCE

This is a good time to learn blockchain programming! I'm learning Solidity and how to create smart-contracts. Once I'm efficient in those tasks, perhaps it'll be time for some XDC01 development 😉

Anyone ever send xdce to the xdc address in Alphaex? When you switch quickly between the two the address from xdc stays up for xdce :-(

looks like more people are investing in XinFin, now 9k+ token holders, when it was around 3k a few weeks ago.  Unfortunately since Ver interview the price has dropped

Hi Prairie1245, if you experience any issues with Alphaex please feel free to report this. They will take care, as soon as it is possible.
You can contact Alphaex Support through their website: https://alphaex.net/contact_us  
Or in the Telegram Support channel: https://t.me/alphaexnet

now bounty XinFin have is closed then what are the team's plans for this next project? where will this token market place be registered?
when will the XDCE token will be sent to the prize participants because I always monitor my wallet to see how much XDCE balance I get.

Hi mandor, you can find the list of Exchanges, including our Roadmap here: https://www.xinfin.io

The project has an interesting idea with great implementation potential. I am very happy to see such quality projects! I will invest in this project.

every bounty hunter was promissed 10-20$ in tokens according spreadsheets and devs words. i got 228 tokes = less than a dollar. plus i can't withdrawall them from their wallet. this project dissapointing.

Why have xinfin team not rewarded they Twitter campaign participants uptil now?
Campaign rewards have been paid over 3weeks oga, but Twitter and the rest have not been paid what is the cause of the delay

Now thats a bounty.  Speaking of which... i have a bounty program i invented...and its open source...free to xinfin... here it is.. 
Air drop xdce to active wallets on eos.lisk.btc. etc

There are no promotions for tradefinex, I don’t understand why. It’s a great concept that utilizes not just xdc but other crypto as well.

Cryptopia is good exchange plz try to add our XinFin into cryptopia exchange

looking good if this token can registered in there is, because Cryptopia is it nice exchange for all coins including this XDC. I also look forward to the XinFin team being able to discuss with several exchanges, if XDC can be traded on Cryptopia, I'm sure the price will rise quickly.

TradeFinex is now evolving into an open API platform built on XinFin's XDC Protocol with which any businesses, governments, institutions Fintechs, rural bodies, ERP systems can be connected.

XinFin Community,

To those who participated in the recent bounty campaign, there was some confusion amongst some participants because some campaigns had XDC wallet and the others had XDCE.

Please send an email with details of your bounty work to: support@xinfin.org , XinFin's compliance team and the outsourced bounty management teams are working those details out and they will take care.

XinFin's Crypto Meetup held at Batanai mall , Harare, Africa was a success. Attendees learned about the working of blockchain , trading , XDC & XinFin from Confidence Nyirenda , Ecosystem Development, Africa.

XinFin is a hybrid blockchain for global trade and finance.  Combing the best attributes of both private and public ..... ""Combining"" typo 😉

what happned with the website https://ewallet.xinfin.org/ I've tried sending my token but why? (Account is invalid. Recheck Account field.) why is it difficult to send this token on an exchange? the price is not so expensive but why is it difficult to send? it's better to use payments through ETH instead of using this wallet https://ewallet.xinfin.org/ I really don't understand.

Hi mandor,
there is XDC (with its own protocol)!
And XDCE (ERC-20).

They are 1:1 swap able anytime at alphaex.net. They are different tokens with the same price. XDC is the the underlying token for major use on the Tradefinex platform that will be adopted mainly by Financiers, Suppliers, etc to foster industrial and governmental projects.

XDCE will be the liquidity gateway for XDC, that's its main use. Since inevitably speculation and trading on many exchanges factors liquidity, XDCE will be the ERC-20 token for that. The supply of XDCE is derived from XDC so XDCE liquidity equals liquidity for XDC.
I recommend that you go for XDCE if you do not plan on using TradeFinex, likely best you hold XDCE.

However, the ewallet is only for XDC! So in order to send it to an ETH adress you need to swap it to XDCE first at Alphaex.net

Atul Khekade presents TradeFinex and XinFin Hybrid Blockchain at BFC 2018 North America

https://youtu.be/mjrhTnZ16f8

good news!!
XDCE Listing on Indodax, congratulations to the XinFin community, for more information: https://blog.indodax.com/xdce-listing-on-indodax/

In fact, the listing on Indodax prices are getting lower, many people who lost money bought this coin, because they thought the price would rise as soon as they entered Indodax

people will lose money if they buy this coin? are you kidding? that is good news if XDCE is already registered in Indodax and many people will buy this coin after the market price returns to green. good idea to buying this coins when the price is cheap and they will get a big profit if the price of Bitcoin rises again.

New listing!
An XDCE was added to the exchange abcc.com (https://abcc.com/at_invitation/share?aff=9e2618) This has increased our trading pairs to an XDCE/ETH. ABCC (https://abcc.com/at_invitation/share?aff=9e2618) today ranks 1st in terms of trading volume for XinFin Network

token = zero  :D :D :D

XinFin Network launches bounty programs for Community

By making great advancements and significantly improving Hybrid Blockchain, XinFin has successfully reached many milestones. Since the very beginning, XinFin Network has been growing rapidly and exponentially. XinFin has launched a Consensus, TestNet — Apothem, XDC Utilities and a completely renovated website — all of which are running optimally.

The XinFin team has given some extra attention to project development in the past few months, a little more than normal. Being an open source public Blockchain project, XinFin has secured many approvals and achievements so far from various institutions and development communities, thanks to the community contributors who extended appreciable support during the journey.

Keeping the extensive support and contribution in mind, XinFin has decided to introduce several new bounty programs and incentives for community members and contributors. It firmly believes that an open source project is only strong and successful if it has a loyal community. Thus, community contributors should always be incentivized to create an open source project which is developed by the community and for the community.

Take a look at the Bounty Programs below and their corresponding incentives. They are specific to certain skill sets:

Content Creation
There are 3 opportunities for content creation:
100K XDC will be awarded to those who create content related to XinFin’s Existing Platforms or Utilities for Medium/YouTube/Blog/Twitter/GitHub/LinkedIn and share it on social media networks. Content should be a Help File, like a “How To” around XinFin Network.
4.5 million XDC will be awarded to those who write and publish a content piece related to XinFin for online or offline media. For example, TechRadar, Bloomberg, CNBC, Forbes, Reuters.
1.5 million XDC will be awarded to those who mention XinFin in a leading digital media. For example, TechRadar, Bloomberg, CNBC, Forbes, Reuters.

Code Contribution Bounty
There are 2 opportunities for technical contributions:
3 million XDC will be awarded to those who write code for XinFin with cross blockchain interoperability. Networks include either the Corda Network, ISO20022 Data Set APIs, ERP Connectors, Core Banking Connectors, or SWIFT System connectors with XinFin Blockchain. The incentive (3 million XDC) is given per interoperability.
1 million XDC will be awarded for staking XDCE tokens and providing resources. The staking function mandates that a participant offers resources to the community service users in order to put up a fraction of their tokens.
Read more about these at Github.

Nice I will have look for it, thank you  8)
But currently I bound to the Populous GOLD Token offer.

XinFin XDC Wallet address will now start with ‘XDC’ in place of ‘0x’.

https://gallery.mailchimp.com/29674c2726d5f176738d9aa27/images/7e9cf28c-3c98-40c5-ab4e-92a2396ff51b.jpeg

XinFin today announced the new address prefix starting with XDC. With this implementation, XinFin Network will become distinguishable from other platforms which are also based on go-ethereum codebase. Developer team at XinFin performed a major change in Ethereum Virtual Machine to achieve the unique XDC address prefix. Developer team also changed the various libraries used for dApp.

Based on Delegated Proof of State Consensus algorithm (https://www.xinfin.org/xinfin-consensus.php) and go-ethereum codebase (https://medium.com/xinfin/xinfin-joins-the-enterprise-ethereum-alliance-a49224324fe8), XinFin XDC Wallet address will now start with ‘XDC’ in place of ‘0x’. The unique address prefix will help users recognize XDC Wallet address instantly without even mentioning it.

Here is the address creation method used by XinFin. It begins with the private key, which uses ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm is the cryptographic algorithm in the core of addresses) to create a public key. The public key is then hashed using Keccak-256, which gives us a 32-byte string. XinFin drops the first 12 bytes, and the remaining 20 bytes yield a 40 character hexadecimal address, to which is added an XDC prefix. There’s no transformation to Base58, which means XinFin addresses remain hexadecimal.

“Replacing the ‘0x’ prefix with XDC will make our XDC Wallet addresses easily recognizable for users who often tend to misinterpret wallet addresses for another blockchain due to their ignorance and lack of technical knowledge. With XDC prefix implementation, users can easily perform transactions without losing their tokens. This XDC address prefix implementation was important to eliminate the challenges; a user faces while performing transactions and I am glad, our developer team achieved it”, said Atul Khekade, Ecosystem Development Head, XinFin.

XinFin TestNet is already live at http://xinfin.network/ and LiveNet will be live within a few weeks after thorough testing.

XinFin, a hybrid enterprise blockchain for global trade and finance, announced its new feature to help enterprises create loyalty tokens or Reward Points. This announcement comes at a time when the use cases of blockchain for enterprises seemed to have started reaching a saturation point. What’s exciting is that enterprises can now setup decentralized loyalty tokens on the XinFin Network completely hasslefree, and in a matter of a few clicks. This also provides a universal solution for businesses who are planning to embark on a robust lead building program instead of cost-generating programs all based on simple loyalty.

Along with this, XinFin also promises an easy plug-in for the Customer Loyalty Programs into an existing ERP or CRM system. This feature ensures the ease of interoperability and integration of existing ERP and CRM system with the XinFin blockchain, which means that it cuts down the cost and time to build a new system around the existing one.

The creation and deployment of customer rewards program have never been easier, nor has been the integration of an existing system with a blockchain.

The step by step guide to create and deploy loyalty tokens:

b. running and testing a masternode for any errors, bugs, and weaknesses on XinFin TestNet. https://www.xinfin.org/setup-masternode.php

c. using and testing web wallet and related features (like deploying smart contracts and interacting with them) for any bugs, errors, and vulnerabilities. http://xinfin.network/#webWallet

Read more about the bug bounty program here: http://xinfin.org/bounty.php .

The new bug bounty program will allow XinFin Dev Team to discover and resolve all the bugs, pertaining to exploits and vulnerabilities in TestNet Apothem; before XinFin rolls out its MainNet. The bounty program will help in the SEO optimization of XinFin products and will also create awareness about XinFin TestNet, which is currently running live at http://xinfin.network/#stats.

Atul Khekade, XinFin Ecosystem Development Head said, “We chose to announce the bug bounty program seeing the interest and curiosity of community members who wanted to know more about XinFin masternodes. The community wanted to set-up, run, and test XinFin TestNet nodes themselves. So, we decided to launch a new bounty program to encourage active community involvement surrounding TestNet masternodes. We believe the community will help us boost XinFin TestNet and iron out all the network’s inaccuracies before we switch to XinFin MainNet which we are planning to roll out on 1st June, 2019”

a) XinFin TestNet “Apothem” Masternode Bounty
Before discussing how to set up a XinFin masternode, let’s know what is a XinFin Masternode and the prerequisites to perform the task:

XinFin Masternode
XinFin’s token XDC supplants proof-of-work consensus algorithm with a randomized delegated proof-of-stake (rDPoS) consensus algorithm, fundamentally using the concept of “validators”. Validators are special (full) nodes which get incentivized for validating each transaction which may be accepted or rejected by the validator. Setting up masternodes on XDC protocol makes the decentralized blockchain network more trusted, more stable, and more self-sustainable. Masternodes are benefitted in the form of reputation building, enhanced reliability, increased incentive gains, and capability to deploy their own dApp/use case on the network.

Things Needed To Set Up A Masternode
· A minimum of 10, 000,000 XDC stake by masternode holder

· Wallet (preferably hardware) to store XDC tokens

· Dedicated and stable hardware

I have been watching this project for quite a long time. every time I see news and various updates. the team's activities are aimed at improving their system. each time the result is all the best.

XinFin invites its existing as well as new global users to set-up masternode using one-click installer function, and make an impact in the world of decentralized trade and finance.

Blockchain is a revolutionary technology that is re-defining an inevitable component of our lives, finance. It has always been debated that the world’s financial system is due for a massive upgrade in terms of trust, transparency, accountability, and most importantly decentralization. Bitcoin, the earliest and the most successful chain supports over 8,000 nodes while Ethereum has about 25,000 nodes. Most of the nodes run by these ecosystems are mining nodes that participate in decentralization and distribution of the network.

Setting up Nodes

Nodes are a necessary component when it comes to becoming a part of the blockchain ecosystem and connecting to the world of decentralized finance, also maintaining the ownership of one’s own data and funds, at the same time.

For Blockchain to reach its full potential, it is necessary to make it simple so that any common person can understand it and can run his own node. This would enable the common men (without much technical knowledge) to control their own data and finances.

Considering that, in; not a very distant future, a household fridge will successfully track the available home food supplies and will make decisions automatically, interacting with the food supply chain, at the same time. It will automatically settle accounts and access external finance using its in-built wallet. It wouldn’t be wrong to say, we are heading towards a future of one blockchain node per household. Seeing the current scenario where every household has a minimum of one computer chip, one blockchain node per household isn’t much of an overwhelming prediction.

Scalability comes with innate simplicity and the purpose of this article is to make things so simple that someone with an average intelligence also finds it easy to set up a node.

At XinFin (eXchange inFinite), our vision is not to reinvent the wheel or compete with any other network (whether legacy, centralized or decentralized), but fine-tune the work already being done in the blockchain industry so that it finds its use in the real world on a day-to-day basis. At the same time, making it interoperable to achieve a use case that runs on the fundamentals of blockchain-something that is still not fully achieved. Yes, you guessed it right!! Decentralized trade and finance.

One-Click Installer from XinFin
XinFin developer community has been working tirelessly to make XinFin tech simpler and to make it easily accessible to masses. We are happy to present a multi-platform one-click installer that makes setting up a node seamlessly easy.

XinFin community will also see considerable changes being made across the whole XDC ecosystem including token swap, wallet private key access, masternode setup, and staking, new supply release, side chain or private network setup, burning of XDC, etc.

Let’s take the new changes introduced by XinFin Network, one by one:

Change 1
XDC Token Allocation

XinFin had already notified the community through a disclaimer in their original white paper, that the token allocation is subject to change based on the institutional participation to facilitate a seamless trade and financing capability and liquidity support. As per their original white paper, a total of 100 billion XDC tokens were created on the XinFin platform. The total token supply was limited and locked which added certainty on the XDC supply. XDC ecosystem never had any concept of mining from the beginning as all the tokens were pre-mined. So, in the case of XDC tokens what matters at any point is the current ‘available’ supply of XDC on the market, also referred to as ‘circulation’.

As Per Original White paper

Total Supply: 100 billion

Founders & Core Team Allocation: 25 billion

Ecosystem Development: 15 billion

Pre-placement: 10 billion

Masternode (Ecosystem Participation) Incentive:32.5 billion

Hedge Pool: 10 billion

Social Cause: 5 billion

Contingency: 2.5 billion

XinFin Network reduced the total supply allocation to the following to run a robust ecosystem at the time of mainnet launch:

Total Supply: 37.5 billion (reduced by 62.5 billion from the original allocation of 100 billion)

Founders & Core Team Allocation: 20 billion (reduced by 5 billion from the original allocation of 25 billion)

Ecosystem Development: 5 billion (reduced by 10 billion from the original allocation of 15 billion)

Masternode Incentive: (reduced from the original allocation of 3.2 billion/ year to 87.6 million/year)

Pre-placement: 10 billion

Hedge Pool: 0 (reduced from the original allocation of 10 billion)

Social Cause: 0 (reduced from the original allocation of 5 billion)

Contingency: 2.5 billion

Change 2
Masternode Incentive

XDCs are given as a reward to masternode hosting institutions and as incentives for the community participants on the platform and governance.

After Mainnet Launch

Currently, masternode incentive is approximately 87.6 million which is much lower than the previous estimate 10% cap of 3.2 billion/year.

XDC rewards:

The yearly outflow total would be approximately 87.6 million given that it fulfills the following predefined conditions:

The block time should be 2 seconds on XinFin Network
Each day 48 Epochs will be created giving a sum of 17520 epochs every year
Hence, the master node holder will be rewarded with 5000 per epoch.

https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/1*4gecvRhlldOosLsbvpeqSA.jpeg

The masternode holder will be rewarded with 5000 XDC per epoch (distributed between participation 18 nodes with random selection). After each epochs’ smart contract will select other 18 nodes randomly from the network.

Assuming 54 masternodes (figure based on current inquiry as on May 28, 2019) and current XDC price $0.0005, roughly node should get return between (after staking 10 million XDC) 10–11 %PA (after deducting hosting cost) + small fees generated from each XDC transaction. Total income may increase with a fewer number of nodes and reduce with a higher number of the nodes. Here, we are not calculating any capital gain which generally happens after mainnet launch.

We will be happy to support you and onboard you as a masternode holder with rights to participate in governance. Please join slack or telegram channel to get quick support on setup.

Telegram Community: https://t.me/XinFinDevelopers

Slack Community: https://xinfin-public.slack.com/messages/CELR2M831/

Change 3
Ecosystem Development Pool

As per the original whitepaper, the tokens from this pool were to be utilized to fund incorporations that support the ecosystem development for XinFin. This supply was locked and a maximum of 2.5% of this supply was to be released every year.

Before Mainnet Launch

Ecosystem development pool has been reduced to 5 billion from the original allocation of 15 billion.

After Mainnet Launch

Ecosystem development pool which is reduced from 15 billion to 5 billion will be spent as per the following plan:

Admin/Foundation (XinFin Fintech): 2 billion

TradeFinex Tech : 2 billion

Alphaex Labs Ltd: 1 billion

Change 4
Vesting Release and new supply within XinFin Network

Before Mainnet Launch

As per the original white paper, 2.5% and 1% of the XDC tokens allocated for ecosystem development and founders were to be released every year.

After Mainnet Launch

Now, whatever tokens are locked for founders, 3% of the tokens will be released every year. Apart from the 3% as vesting period release from the founder holding, masternode holders will be incentivized with XDC tokens based on the number of transactions on XinFin Network. We are estimating new token generation at the rate of 87.6 million/year from the network.

Change 5
Hedge Pool

Hedge pool ensured that participants received agreed fiat currency value based on agreed conditions, irrespective of the XDC token fluctuation.

Before Mainnet Launch

As per the original white paper, the 10 billion token supply was to be used for hedging the commerce between financiers, buyers, and suppliers against changes in the XDC token value and for any settlement losses arising due to fall in the value of underlying XDC token. This supply was locked and up to a maximum of 5% was to be released every year.

After Mainnet Launch

The hedge pool token allocation which was 10 billion initially, has been reduced to 0. The reason behind is: XinFin will now work with smart contracts similar to Maker DAI-grade smart contract which will provide hedging and price stability through underlying stable smart contracts token (XRC20) which is pegged against the value of XDC. XinFin Network will use XDC from the existing supply in the open market and will not be working with any new supply of tokens.

Change 6
Social Cause

Before Mainnet Launch

As part of its corporate social responsibility, a portion of the XDC amount i.e. 5 billion was to be utilized for philanthropic activities and support several social causes to empower individuals and communities. The supply was locked and was to be released on a need basis.

After Mainnet Launch

With the mainnet release, the 5 billion token supply allocated for the social cause has been reduced to 0 as this might affect the XDC ecosystem. The social cause funding will be coming from the open market supply of XDC which will be used for building a sustainable future for all.

Change 7
Decentralized wallet with Private key access

Since now XinFin network is moving towards its mainnet launch, its new mainnet XDC token will be swappable against old XDC and XDCe tokens. XDCe will continue to get ERC20 liquidity and will act as a bridge which will connect various utility DApps from ERC20 network.

Before Mainnet Launch

Earlier, XinFin used to manage a centralized key store where it used to store the private keys for all the wallet users. Wallet users used an email id and password to login into the wallet. This wallet had provision for restoring password from the custodian.

After Mainnet Launch

With the new mainnet launch, wallet users will have full access and control over their private keys. XinFin will not maintain any centralized database of private keys. Users will need a private key and password to access their wallets. However, at the same time, it will be token holders’ responsibility to store the private key at a safe and secure place. Token holders may lose their tokens if they don’t store their private key at a safe place.

Note: New XDC Wallet is going to be fully decentralized and will provide full control over the private key to the user. Users will have to be careful about storing the private key to protect XDC coin. There is no option of restoring/recovering the private key, in case of users lose it.

Web and mobile wallet links are available at http://xinfin.network (getting live from June 1, 2019).

Meanwhile, you can access test Wallet at http://apothem.network

Other Important Community Updates:

Token Swapping on Alphaex

XDC token being a fork of the quorum, was a part of quorum network and XDCe token was an ERC20 token. Both the token were 1:1 swappable on Alphaex exchange. Current XDC wallet and tokens are going to be disabled and burnt as soon as the user swaps token to the new livenet.

Masternode and XDC Staking

Recently, XinFin has introduced staking function in ecosystem participation incentives in which a masternode holder will have to stake 10 million XDC for setting up every masternode. Anyone including reputed high stakeholders, technology partners and authorized and regulated institutions can host a masternode by staking and become a part of governance called as validators. The validators will get incentivized for running and contributing towards the network consensus.

XDC Burning Plan

25% net profit (from the admin company) will be burnt by way of buying from the open market
To set up a side chain or private network setup, enterprise or user will have to burn 10 million XDC (after buying from the open market) with each private subnetwork set up
The Need For Side Chain / Private Network Setup

XinFin sees a huge potential of the side chain and interoperability setup with various blockchain networks like R3 Corda, Oracle, Hyperledger, ETH, BTC, XRP, Stellar, EOS, Tezos, Cosmos, and Tron, etc. Every side chain or private network setup needs to burn 10 million XDC to get access to the private chain facility.

The Roadmap Ahead

After the successful launch of mainnet, XinFin Network plans to:

work towards making XDC token more aligned with real-world utilities. This will be done by connecting the XDC utility protocol with various other production systems
make XDC ecosystem more liquid and transparent. XinFin Network will be adding XDC to more and more regulated exchanges
make XDC tokens securer. The network that has always ensured the security of XDC tokens for its wallet users will be adding regulated custodians and hardware wallet to store XDC
Benefit from XinFin Fintech Admin / Foundation

XinFin Fintech admin/foundation will be taking care of maintenance, masternode network and coordination with the community for the further enhancement of the network protocol.

Benefit from TradeFinex

TradeFinex enables liquidity of various financial instruments. All bridges and applications are powered by XDC Protocol. Further, the consortium will help to make protocol more compliance and government-friendly.

Benefit from Alphaex

Alphaex will provide token swapping and enable liquidity against various token pairs like USDC to add value to various use cases run on XinFin network.

Benefit from Circle Partnership

The partnership allows TradeFinex to trade various financial instruments against regulated stable coin USDC.

Few other FAQs received from the community members

1) Who is the biggest token holder of XDCe holding over 60% of supply?

The 60% of supply currently is in custody of XinFin Admin account and it has been locked ever since it has been created.

2) What is this 60% supply for and what will happen to it after mainnet launch?

When ERC20, the swappable version of XDC was deployed, it was envisioned that both XDC and XDCe may need to co-exist for some time atomically linked to each other.

This was mainly because:

Hybrid chain: XDCe on ERC20, XDC on quorum, and XinFin mainnet token provides direct interoperability for XDC with ethereum ecosystem
Liquidity: XDCe (ERC20 token) gets much easier access to liquidity as exchanges charge almost 2–3 times more for the integration of a new chain
After mainnet launch, the 60% supply will still stay locked.

3) Is XDC to XDCe swap mechanism instant, delayed, manual or automated/atomic swap. Also, can we view code? Where and how is swap made on a technical perspective?

The XDC to XDCe swap mechanism is automated. No, you cannot view code. Currently, the swap is made through Alphaex exchange only. We are in discussion with other exchanges for supporting the XDC on mainnet.

4) Will the mainnet release change the XDC tokens already held by users? Are the founder tokens swapped to XDCe or not?

No, the mainnet release change will not change the XDC tokens into XDCe (or vice versa). They will still remain XDC. None of the founder tokens have been swapped to XDCe.

5) Where can the community check the supply of XDC in real time? How can investors know the total number of XDC aside from being written in the whitepaper?

The community can easily check the supply of XDC in real-time on the block explorer after the mainnet launch. Even the total number of XDC can be checked by investors on the XDC explorer itself. Visit XDC explorer here.

6) If the circulating supply of XDCe is swapped to XDC, can XDCe holders keep their tokens they already have? Or, is it mandatory to transfer XDCe tokens to Alphaex and swap it to XDC?

While XDC has utility for masternodes staking and as a utility coin for using various utilities on XinFin Network, the XDCe will continue to function for the foreseeable future. However, in a few months, all XDCe and XDC tokens will be eventually swapped to mainnet XDC token.

The report on XDC and XDCe in circulation will be publicly available on both etherscan and XinFin mainnet.

Currently, the swap can be done only over AlphaEx exchange.

7) What impact will the mainnet change have on trading volume since XDC is very low in volume?

Since all the transactions have been taking place through XDCe, we understand XDC was low in volume. But, with the mainnet launch, XDCe will be converted to mainnet XDC token. So, we expect the trading volume to go high with the conversion. Moreover, the native XDC token will also become swappable to mainnet XDC. Another reason for the low trading volume of XDC is: As per whitepaper, it is mandatory that XDC gets traded on regulated, custodian-backed, and insured exchanges, and not just any random exchange.

8) What is the purpose of getting rid of XDCe?

We are not getting rid of XDCe. XDCe will be present for the next few months until all the XDCe tokens are converted to mainnet XDC. Please note that this conversion will take a few months.

We have tried to cover most of the questions we got recently from various community channels and members.

We welcome your feedback and any queries you might have.

Today, development and blockchain seem to be synonymous words. From solopreneurs to international entities, everyone is implementing highly beneficial use cases of blockchain to their work ecosystem. Companies in the blockchain industry are doing best to help the blockchain-hungry world to leverage the technology and make the most out of it.

Similar to all revolutionary ideas that ever changed the world, blockchain too is facing some scepticism. However, innovation is nowhere close to being canned.

In this blog, we’ll be talking about two different blockchain ecosystems, namely Cosmos and XinFin. While both the names do not suggest much about what the blockchains are aligned to serve, here we lay down a brief comparison of the two blockchains (a blockchain network in case of Cosmos) while also explaining what purpose they’re meant to serve.

Cosmos
Interoperability of blockchains was an unanswered problem until Cosmos was created. Transactions from one blockchain to the other was far from possible. As an independent network of parallel, interoperable blockchains working over the Tendermint Byzantine Fault Tolerance consensus mechanism, Cosmos delivers an ecosystem integrated with all the necessary tools and equipment required by developers to build blockchains.

The speciality with Cosmos is that every blockchain coded over the Cosmos network is interoperable, which means that two different blockchains can transact with each other. By doing so, Cosmos has brought the world closer to highly scalable blockchains and also to a decentralized internet of blockchains.

XinFin
XinFin Network has a more industry-specific goal of disrupting the trade and finance industry. It is an enterprise-focused hybrid blockchain that brings the benefits of both, a private and a public blockchain into one place. Its network architecture is built with a fork from Quorum and Ethereum blockchain making it suitable for both, public and private transactions. The network runs on the delegated proof-of-stake mechanism, rendering it highly energy efficient while also making transactions over XinFin trusted and expeditious.

Considering the vastness of the financial industry, XinFin has a huge market to disrupt and a scalable solution with a great market tendency. Hooking up the financial players with the blockchain industry can revolutionize the way most of the world today looks at finance.


Technical Specifications
The open source development tools platform and the network of parallel blockchains, Cosmos, functions with an average block creation time of six to seven seconds. This is comparatively higher when juxtaposed with that of XinFin Network that boasts of an average block creation time of two seconds.

As the transaction rate of a blockchain, often termed as scalability, is directly related to the block creation time of a blockchain, it is clearly evident that XinFin network harnesses a faster transaction rate.

In terms of consensus mechanism, both Byzantine Fault Tolerance consensus and XinFin Delegated Proof-of-Stake consensus are energy efficient and scalable. Though BFT is said to be only workable with permissioned blockchains, Tendermint Core engine promises that developers can create both private and public blockchains using their BFT mechanism. XinFin, on the other hand, makes the interoperability of private and public blockchain using the XDPoS consensus mechanism.

Coming to masternodes, XinFin has an upper hand as it offers KYC enabled masternode functionality while Cosmos does not.

Market Specification
Cosmos ecosystem is fueled by the ATOM token which is currently valued $6.04. XinFin, whose mainnet launch was scheduled on June 1, 2019, functions with the XDC tokens and possesses a value of $0.000547.

Cosmos and XinFin’s market capitalization according to CoinMarketCap data is $1.15 billion and $2.1 million respectively.

* Coin Price and Market Capital values are as per CoinMarketCap value on June 6, 2019

Parting Words
Cosmos and XinFin differ largely in terms of their core motives and end goals. Both the XinFin blockchain and the Cosmos blockchain network possess their own set of pros and cons.

While Cosmos is sure to make blockchains a more worldly thing by making them interoperable, XinFin will bring financial players into the ecosystem, who then will help spread the technology to the parties related to them — including the masses.

Do you think blockchain technology is mature enough for the major financial players to step in and reap its benefits? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

XDC wallet is now officially released on XinFin mainnet and users can now store their XDC and XDCE tokens in XDC wallet.

The new interface of XinFin Web Wallet running on XDPoS blockchain
https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/0*PFytpZcUbWtRuSTE
The website of the web wallet is completely redesigned inside and out! View the web wallet link at https://xinfin.network/#webWallet

There is a great deal of discussion in the crypto community about the necessity of providing a great user experience if XinFin wants to see widespread adoption of XDPoS blockchain. At XinFin, we are focused on getting the best ideas out of the feedback and discussions and then implementing them, as simply and intuitively as possible, for our users.

In XinFin Web Wallet, we have brought you pretty color schemes, cute buttons, and friendly fonts but at the end of the day, what matters most for XinFin is the “great USER experience”.

XinFin believes in a simple interface that comes coupled with customer support and on-demand education. While we have great respect for the experienced users, we welcome the new users with open arms.

XinFin has a ‘no intrusion’ policy. XinFin doesn’t store any data related to users. There is no tracking, no emails, no ads, and no demographics. XinFin will never monetize in a way that interferes with the user experience. Security matters most for us.

In the world of crypto, interface updates are more than beautification. Interface updates are a process of arriving together as a community, at what will work best for all the current and future users of XDPoS blockchains. Better interfaces are all about discovering the most universally intuitive way of interacting with decentralized financial and governance structures so that their promise of zero barriers to entry can be fully realized. We contribute to that goal by always striving to make our product more secure and more accessible!

From the beginning, we wanted to create a platform that is compatible with all kinds of devices, be it desktop, tablet or mobile. The uncluttered, inviting interface works on any screen, allowing you to access your wallet instantly or, if you are a first-time user of XinFin Web Wallet, creating a new one.

We created our designs keeping in mind both kind of users?—?the experienced users and beginners. While experts should be easy-to-find what they need easily and quickly, novices should feel welcomed and helped when visiting our interface.

Intuitive and Convenient

For example, it’s easy to tell which methods to access XinFin Web Wallet are most secure. For now, we recommend a keystore file, private key. For your security, we do NOT recommend accessing with a mnemonic phrase.

We will soon be supporting hardware wallets like Ledger, KeepKey, Secalot, Trezor, BitBox, and Metamask. Our developers are working round the clock to get all these hardware wallets onboard.
https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/0*_GLOfRDFkDJZih3H
Once you access the wallet, you can perform all the tasks at one place, from checking your balance to interacting with contracts, without ever having to re-login. Unlock once and use all the features until you log out!

Wallet balances are loaded automatically, without the need for third-party extensions. Not only that, XinFin now features notifications! No need to wonder about the status of your transaction?—?you will find this information updated in the notifications section, the small bell icon!
https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/0*8LXCw_txuAUFEkye
Developers can easily deploy smart contract and interact with a contract on XinFin network.
https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/0*B19UiiP3fbDo6Rde
User can send tokens offline. If you are using XinFin Original Web Wallet (XOW) offline and locally, it is not possible to send transactions directly from the offline computer. To send or broadcast a transaction, an internet connection is required. To do this, you should use a second computer that is connected to the internet. This has the advantage of keeping your private key on a separate offline device that won’t be afflicted by malware or hackers.
https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/0*rVShzurBM8qvgkcF
Under the Hood
When developing XinFin Web Wallet, we did not just focus on the front end, because we would not be satisfied with a cosmetic change. We wanted to provide our users with a robust backend that can live up to the evolving future of the XinFin (XDPoS) ecosystem. And, a web wallet that supports a feature which allows users to store XDC and XDCE under one address for easy handling of private keys.

So we invite all community members to support for future enhancement of XinFin Web Wallet. Check the XinFin Web Wallet here and enhance the features and errors at https://github.com/XinFinOrg/Wallet

TradeFinex 2019 RoundTable Conference held at ADGM Academy, Al Maqam Tower, 20th Floor ADGM Square, Abu Dhabi, UAE on June 18, 2019.
https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/0*1uxD_E43l4t5nWm3
June 2019 was an exciting month for the blockchain community with events like World Blockchain Summit (Taiwan), Blockchain Expo Global (London), Blockchain Life 2019 (Singapore) attracting thousands of people from across the globe. Amidst all these colossal events, there was one small but impactful event that stole the limelight. It was TradeFinex 2019 held at ADGM Academy, Al Maqam Tower, 20th Floor ADGM Square, Al Maryah Island, Abu Dhabi, UAE on June 18, 2019.

A bit about TradeFinex 2019-ADGM RoundTable Conference, Abu Dhabi UAE

Organized in association with ADGM Academy on June 18, 2019, TradeFinex 2019 was a one-day blockchain powered trade and finance roundtable conference that attracted some bigwigs of blockchain, trading, and finance industry.

One of the finest events held in Abu Dhabi, UAE in the year 2019, TradeFinex 2019 was led and arranged by the co-founders of TradeFinex Tech Ltd. (an ADGM RegLab Participant)-Ritesh Kakkad and Atul Khekade. The attendees consisted of well-known industry leaders and speakers and emerging talents like Ken Coghill (Dubai Financial Services Authority), Steve Barnett (ADGM), Robert Jan De Jong (Bitfinex), Natalia Bushkevich (Oracle), Inès Taki (Bpifrance), Satyajit Roy (Vistra), Meng Chan Shu (Connect Blockchain), Priyesh Kapadia (BDO, UAE), Stewart Adams (Vistra), Sudhir Bettadapura (PKF UAE), Rijil Raj (PKF UAE), Jignesh Ved (Alphaex.net), and Tim Draper (Draper Associates/DFJ/Draper University), Paul Ruskin (Trace Financial), Tadashi Yoshida (TradeFinex) who were virtual attendees.

Ritesh Kakkad
Ritesh Kakkad, the co-founder of TradeFinex kick-started the event and welcomed all participants to a one-day blockchain powered trade and finance roundtable TradeFinex 2019 ADGM conference.

Atul Khekade, Co-Founder, TradeFinex introduces TradeFinex 2019
https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/0*KPfaiKmRm0WrAH-b (https://youtu.be/1hCIQN9TTcA)
Atul Khekade
The first session was the introductory session in which Atul Khekade, the co-founder of TradeFinex introduced the TradeFinex platform, discussed XinFin license, ADGM license, and live network & integration. He threw some light on the purpose of holding such blockchain roundtable conferences and also invited financial institutions and organizations worldwide to come together to make open standards for blockchain based global trade and finance.

Here are a few highlights from his speech:

Importance of building an ecosystem: TradeFinex is an open standards platform which brings together all stakeholders including customers, organizations, regulators on one single platform. Thus, building an ecosystem for open standards.

Importance of open standards and protocols: Lack of standards hurts the trade and finance industry the most and interoperability can be achieved through TradeFinex 2019, open standards roundtable and working together.

The building of a value system: The foundation of any ecosystem/economy is the intent for a buyer and a seller to work together. How the two parties are going to honor the agreements, what rules and regulations they are bound by, what standards they are governed by are the points to be noticed while building a value system. Working with different regulated markets, companies, and industries across various jurisdictions is a constraint.

The Focus of TradeFinex: The main intent of TradeFinex 2019 is to bring all the global ecosystem partners together and ensure that there are minimum friction and overhead for them while working with a digital system. TradeFinex doesn’t aim to disrupt the legacy systems but focuses on building open standards that interoperate and exist with legacy systems. TradeFinex is also platform agnostic and extends its open plug-n-play APIs that can work with any platform and are designed to be interoperable.

The network: The hybrid network combines the power and transparency of public network and the security and speed of the private network. It can easily work with regulated institutions that want a part of their data to be public and rest remain private. The private network can interoperate with any other platform and verify the required data and transactions?—?something that helps in cross border trade and settlements. TradeFinex works with core banking systems, regulated systems, standardized systems like ISO20022, international SWIFT partners. The network is really designed for enterprises and financial institutions to work and create a digital replica of what they already have on the network.

Lastly, Atul Khekade invited all the partners like financial institutions, regulators, liquidity providers enterprises and governments to come and work together to build an interoperable and open standards ecosystem. Interested participants can visit tradefinex.org (https://www.tradefinex.org/) now.

One stage and two regulators
TradeFinex was one of the first events organized in Abu Dhabi in which two different regulators came on stage together. The two regulators are Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) and Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA). The two speakers-Steve Barnett (ADGM) and Ken Coghill (DFSA) were the center of attraction at TradeFinex 2019.

Representative members from Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum* were also attraction from Dubai (*as per Wikipedia, CEO, and chairman of Emirates Group, A billionaire member of Dubai’s ruling Al Maktoum family, he is believed to be one of the world’s wealthiest royals.)

https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/0*zK5V8oj9hvG3Bx_J (https://youtu.be/1hCIQN9TTcA?t=988)
Steve Barnett
Steve Barnett introduced ADGM and RegLab and explained their approach towards the new technology. He also went on to discuss their purpose behind RegLab/Sandbox facility. He discussed the three things that have separated ADGM from others. They wanted to provide a platform for people to do business in the region. They went out and talked to their stakeholders, clients, potential organizations, and ensured they provided something that fulfilled organizations’ needs. The first one was they had to a price where people could trust the environment. They needed a legal framework which was supportive of the worth of business. The second was ADGM should be an easy-price-to-do business and they should try and cut through some of the inherent challenges doing business in emerging markets in that region. The third thing was ADGM should be innovative and regulator-friendly. ADGM believes in doing good business ensuring that the standards are met and the growth of the markets is protected.

Step by step guide to deploy the smart contract on XinFin Testnet (Apothem) through XinFin Remix and XinPay.

Stage 1: Setup the Environment
You can find the XinFin remix at remix.xinfin.network. After this, you need to select the environment according to your contract.
https://miro.medium.com/max/1362/0*seqsXziLChL-pIwq

After selecting the environment according to your contract you need to create a new file and name it.
Then you just need to paste your contract in the new file which you have created and select the compiler version as per your contract.
https://miro.medium.com/max/1364/0*N2VqQGyorbfeGauT

And then compile your contract.
Stage 2: Add XinPay in Chrome
After compiling your contract, you need to deploy it.
You would need to download XinPay in order to further deploy your contract.
Afterwhich, you can simply XinPay (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/xinfin-ewallet/bocpokimicclpaiekenaeelehdjllofo) as an extension in your Google Chrome browser.
https://miro.medium.com/max/1364/0*4BshJvmf18L82CXb

Once you accept all the terms and conditions, enter a strong password and remember your password as every time you would need to feed in the password in order to access XinPay.
After that, you will see a seed with which you can access your wallet. Make sure you take a proper backup of your Keystore as XinFin network is decentralized.
Post this, you would need to select XinFin Apothem network where you can get the test token from Faucet (http://apothem.network/#getTestXDC).
https://miro.medium.com/max/1364/0*-IuNY49BLmOMQmbK

Stage 3: Deploy the contract
After getting the test token on XinPay, you can deploy the token from XinFin remix and submit the required transaction.
https://miro.medium.com/max/1366/0*s2QcdC73aobeKIht

Post the deployment of the contract you can check the tx hash on the XinPay. This means you have deployed your contract successfully and you can check it on XinFin Scan.
https://miro.medium.com/max/1366/0*_ZeCppuozL1P3G68

Stage 4: Interact with contract
You can also interact with your smart contract on XinFin remix.

I was introduced to this project by a fellow trader a couple days ago. I spent the last couple of days researching while buying this cheap coin. After witnessing what I would call a very childish community, I would highly recommend staying away from this project. It's a major scam IMO. I was hoping for the best but after my research, I will be selling my holdings.

Major Scam

a very serious allegation but seems that youve done your homework here already.
if you have valid proofs of such allegation, you can create a thread also in this board so traders or other users will be aware of this potential scam as you said

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0

i really thought this is a promising project as when you browse their site, seems everything is well prepared and documented

It may still turn out to be something good but my experience has been horrible. The community on telegram are useless and rude. The team members have nothing to do with the community. They are nowhere to be found. This project is from India and they have zero skills in community organization and keeping the investors in the loop.

You all should spend some time in their telegram group and see what a scam this project is.

Hey I am Supersnips (one of the Admins at Telegram). First of all, I want to outline that we always try to  encourage an open, professional and facts based discussion in our Telegram group.

Indeed it is a serious allegation and yet there was no more specific explanation provided. However, I encourage everyone to join our Telegram and see for themselves: https://t.me/xinfintalk
We do always encourage an open discussion in our Telegram Group, as long as it is no obvious FUD without any Question. Our Co-founders answer questions in telegram from time to time besides the Admins.

You can also always arrange a visit of our Office in Singapore. @sisterchristian For that please send a short email with date you want to visit to info@xinfin.org. Everyone in interested can do the same. Everyone in our Telegram group is cared with big respect, but we have a zero tolerance policy against any kind of FUD. As „sisterchristian“ wrote he/she based their allegation on a moment at telegram which hasn’t been specified. So this might be a misunderstanding (as I don’t want to accuse “sisterchristian” any intention with this. Some time earlier there were people trying to manipulate the market price with FUD) some people tried this a while ago. So possibly this is exactly what happened and/or our members reacted to same kind of statements. If you have questions, you can always reach out at telegram directly to me/ ask in the Telegram group or send an Email to info@xinfin.org. Any kind of XinFin related Question is always welcome! Looking forward to see some of you in our telegram Community Channel!

Snips is a nobody. He hangs out in telegram all the time and starts shit with anyone that challenges this scam project. This project is a scam! Wash trading is all the volume it has.

I’m going to briefly remind the readers about XDPoS before diving into the problem slashing aims to solve. I will then explain the slashing mechanism with XDPoS proposed slashing followed by a discussion of other slashing mechanisms from Ethereum Casper.

XinFin XDPoS Consensus Background
At the heart of XinFin, XDPoS that enables it to be an EVM-compatible and scalable public blockchain. This means that every Ethereum smart contract can be run on XinFin XDPoS with almost instant transaction confirmation. XDPoS relies on the architecture of 108 masternodes.

In order to become a masternode candidate, a token-holder must deposit at least 10 million XDC to a smart contract. masternode candidate is shown on a decentralized governance application called XinFin Master-Node App.

Masternodes are selected to create blocks in a round-robin fashion. A maximum of 900 blocks are created within an epoch and there is a block created every two seconds. Masternodes are also responsible for verifying and signing blocks in order to finalize the blocks. And all the masternode on the network are KYC enable masternode.

To strengthen system security, XinFin XDPoS also proposes double validation and randomization techniques. In double validation, when a masternode creates a block, this block must be verified by another masternode. The verifier is randomly selected among the remaining set of masternodes.

Decentralize Network instability and performance problem
So, what is the problem here? Remember that XinFin XDPoS is a public blockchain that allows anyone to freely join and leave the network. Now let’s consider a situation where the network has some underperforming masternodes. By underperforming, I mean the masternode does not sign/verify any blocks during the entire epoch. Some reasons for this might be that the masternode does not have the correct XinFin XDPoS software or the masternode crashes due to the lack of e-maintenance and operation by the masternode owner.

Underperforming masternodes can dramatically decrease the performance of the whole network and cause network instability. In XDPoS's current implementation, when a masternode fails to create a block on his turn, the whole network has to wait for 10 seconds of time-out before the next masternode in the round-robin takes its turn to create the next block. This means the whole network wastes m*10 seconds (m is the number of turns the underperforming masternode is selected within an epoch to produce blocks).

To make the problem worse, if ¼ (or 27 masternodes) of the 108 masternodes are underperforming, the total wasted time is 27 * 6 * 10 = 2220 seconds! It’s longer than the duration of an epoch. That being said, if these 27 masternodes are not eliminated out of the network, the performance will be decreased by more than 50%! There is actually a worst-case in which more than ¼ of the masternodes are underperforming. In this case, no finality can be reached since there are not ¾ of the masternodes signing off blocks. This means all masternodes are just wasting resources but completing nothing.

Slashing mechanism
The objective of the slashing mechanism is not to blame the underperforming masternodes but to mitigate the aforementioned issue to keep the system stable and performing. The slashing mechanism is as follows:

If a masternode does not sign any block during an entire epoch, the masternode will be slashed from the masternode for the next 4 epochs.

If more than one masternode is underperforming, the masternodes list for next epoch are chosen as follows:

If a masternode was considered as underperforming within 4 previous epochs, it is considered as ‘kicked-out’ and does not have the right to create blocks. Therefore, the number of masternodes responsible for creating blocks in this epoch might be less than 108. However, the active masternodes will not have to wait 10 seconds for underperforming masternodes’ blocks.

Once kicked out of the masternode list, the underperforming masternode can still verify and sign off blocks. This mechanism is used for the underperforming masternode to notify others about its liveness. However, the underperforming masternode does not receive rewards for verifying and signing off blocks after being slashed out.

This slashing mechanism has two properties:
Accountability: an underperforming masternode is always detected if it is silent within an entire epoch. XDPoS consensus has a smart contract called block signer. Block signer stores all block signatures produced by masternodes. The laziness of a masternode is easily accounted for by reading the number of signatures it has sent to the block signer smart contract during the epoch.

Liveness: If a previously slashed masternode becomes live again after 4 epochs of slashing, This property is guaranteed by allowing the demoted masternode to verify and sign off blocks, which is a signal demonstrating its liveness, as previously described.

Discussion
Slashing has been considered in Ethereum Casper FFG designed by Vitalik Buterin to move Ethereum consensus from Proof-of-Work-based to Proof-of-Stake-based. The objective of Casper slashing is to prevent Ethereum from the nothing-at-stake problem — in which Casper validators would choose to validate and finalize all forks. Attackers can take advantage of the nothing-at-stake problem to double spend. Casper slashing states that if two forks can be both finalized (a fork in Casper is considered as finalized if ? Casper validators validate the fork), there will be at least? Casper validators trying to validate both forks. These validators then lose their entire deposit for violating the consensus rule stating that one validator has to attest to only one fork.

Casper slashing tries to prohibit intentional bad behavior from malicious validators that violate the consensus rule. This is why slashing is very strong as it is used to discourage validators from committing any malicious behavior. TomoChain’s slashing is quite different in its philosophy. Underperforming masternodes do not intend to attack the network and the reasons for not verifying any block during an entire epoch might be, for example, an electrical problem or a server crashing. Burning the staked tokens of underperforming masternodes creates fear among participants, thus discouraging people from participating in the system. There is no reason to take all deposited tokens from an underperforming masternode just because its electricity source turns off for 30 minutes.

What is XinFin Remix?
XinFin Remix (https://remix.xinfin.network/#optimize=false&evmVersion=null&version=soljson-v0.5.1+commit.c8a2cb62.js) is a web browser-based Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that allows users to write Solidity smart contracts and compile, deploy and run those smart contracts on XinFin Blockchain Network.

New and Upgraded Structure for XinFin Remix
https://miro.medium.com/max/402/0*AaIB4xbPzLRBI1tb
Icon Panel: You can click on the Icon panel to change what plugins appear in the Side Panel
Side Panel: Most but not all plugins have their GUI in the Side Panel.
Main Panel: In the old layout, this was only meant for editing files. In the new layout, however, the Main Panel holds plugins as well as files for the IDE to compile.
Terminal: The Terminal shows you the results of your interactions with the GUIs. You can also run scripts in this section.

Icon Panel at Page Load
When you load Remix, the ‘Icon’ panel shows these icons by default.
https://miro.medium.com/max/182/0*Wy-gxSjttdgAI8De
In the upgraded version, everything in Remix is a plugin, making the Plugin Manager highly crucial. On the contrary, each basic task was separated into the tabs in the old layout of Remix. These tabs are now redesigned as plugins.
The number of plugins you’re using at a single time might affect the page loading and make it slightly tedious due to the power required to activate the plugins.

Homepage
https://miro.medium.com/max/1280/0*wKr5f5obA-y8Q-4N
The homepage is located on the top left corner of the tab in the Main Panel.
Clicking on the Remix logo at the top of the Icon panel also opens the Homepage.

Environments
You can click on one of the environment buttons to load a collection of plugins.
In our new version, we have a Solidity Button and a Vyper button, but you will be able to save your own environment in the near future.
To see all the plugins, go to the plugin manager by selecting the Plugin icon in the Icon panel.
The Environment buttons are time & sanity savers so you don’t need to access the plugin manager to get started every time you load the page.

Plugin Manager
We wanted to make Remix flexible for integrating changes into its functionality and for integrating Remix into other projects such as yours. So we transformed everything into a plugin. With this, you only require to load the functionality you need. To let you easily manage and turn your plugins on and off as per your need, we have the Plugin Manager.
You can also create your own plugin and load your local plugin into Remix using the Plugin Manager. You can do so by clicking the “Connect to a Local Plugin” link at the top of the Plugin Manager panel.

Themes
To make working on Remix fun and more friendly, we added the themes section. You can now work with a dark theme or a grey theme or just any custom theme that best fits your needs.
To choose a theme, go to the settings tab and you can find several bootstrap-based themes towards the bottom of the page.
https://miro.medium.com/max/353/0*oX0eTf3ylI_C2Mg0

File Explorer
To go to the file explorer, click the ‘File Explorer’ icon.
https://miro.medium.com/max/275/0*nWQ9xhrMqZlByzmu
The file explorer by default lists all the files stored in your browser. You can see them in the browser folder and rename, remove or add new files to the file explorer.
Note: Clearing the browser storage will permanently delete all the solidity files you wrote. To avoid this, you can use Remix, which enables you to store and sync files in the browser with your local computer.
https://miro.medium.com/max/213/0*JcTcZ35Djvujzgf4

Create a New File
You can use the ‘create new file’ option to create a new untitled.sol file in Remix.
Add Local File
If you want to import a local file to the Remix browser storage, you can do so with the ‘add local file’ option.
Publish to Gist
You can publish all files from the browser folder to a gist using this feature.
It must be noted that Gist API has changed in 2018 and it now requires users to be authenticated before they can publish a gist.
Click this link to Github tokens setup and select Generate new token. Check only the ‘Create Gists’ checkbox and generate a new token.
Then paste it in Remix (right panel/Settings tab) and click Save. Now you will be able to use the feature.
Copy to another Remix instance
This feature enables you to copy files from the browser storage to another instance (URL) of Remix.
Connect your filesystem to Remix
You can use this to sync between Remix and your local file system.

Plugin Manager
Everything is a PLUGIN in Remix
To make it easier to integrate new tools made by us and by you into Remix, we’ve now made everything a plugin. This architecture allows Remix or any part of Remix to be integrated into other projects in a simpler way.
With the advent of Plugins, you will only have to load the functionality you need. It also gives you the benefit of turning off and on plugins as per your need.
You can manage all your plugins in the Pugin Manager, which is also the section of Remix where you can create your own plugin or load your local plugin into Remix.
To do the latter, you can click on the “Connect to a Local Plugin” link at the top of the Plugin Manager panel.
https://miro.medium.com/max/372/0*ipOUmd08vcM0midn
To learn more about how to create your own plugin, go to the README of Remix-plugin repo.
Settings
You can access Settings by clicking the gear icon at the bottom of the icon panel.
You can find a link to the homepage (if you closed it) as well as a link to our Gitter Channel. We also have a rather large list of themes for all you aesthetes out there.
https://miro.medium.com/max/353/0*WXrK7zYlLIcMxSgK

Another important setting:
Text wrap: Use this to control how the text in the editor should be wrapped.
Enable optimization: This defines if the compiler should enable optimization during compilation. You can enable this option to save execution gas. It is useful to enable optimization for contracts ready to be deployed in production but could lead to some inconsistencies when debugging such a contract.

Solidity Editor
The Remix editor recompiles the code whenever the current file is changed or another file is selected. It also provides syntax highlighting mapped to solidity keywords.
https://miro.medium.com/max/679/0*-WooYOtTIwYLgGfp
Here’s the list of some important features:
It displays opened files as tabs.
Compilation Warning and Error are displayed in the gutter.
Remix automatically saves the current file every five seconds.
+/- on the top left corner can be used to alter the font size of the editor.

Terminal
https://miro.medium.com/max/502/0*Q4KkKwCplAMdVWuv
Primary features available in the terminal:
It integrates a JavaScript interpreter and the web3 object. It enables the execution of the JavaScript script which interacts with the current context. (note that web3 is only available if the web provider or injected provider mode is selected).
It displays important actions made while interacting with the Remix IDE (i.e. sending a new transaction).
It displays transactions that are mined in the current context. You can choose to display all transactions or only transactions that refer to the contracts Remix knows (e.g transaction created from the Remix IDE).
It allows searching for the data and clearing the logs from the terminal.
It allows you to run scripts by inputting them at the bottom after the >.

Compiler (Solidity)
Clicking the Solidity icon in the Icon panel will take you to the Solidity Compiler.
By default, you need to click the compile button to trigger compilation(D. in the image below). You can check the auto compile checkbox in case you want the file to be compiled each time the file is saved or when another file is selected (E. in the image below).
Since the release of Solidity version 0.5.7, it is possible to compile Yul files. Please read the solidity documentation about Yul which contains some code examples.
You can use the language dropdown (B. in the image below) to switch the language. This dropdown list is only available for versions 0.5.7 and beyond.
The fork selection dropdown list (C. in the image below) allows you to compile code against a specific ethereum hard fork. The compiler default corresponds to the default hard fork used by a specific version.
Please go to “Compilation Details” (G. in the image below) in the settings of the Metadata section to see the harfork name used for the current compilation.
If the contract has a lot of dependencies, it can take a while to compile. So you can use auto compilation at your discretion for instantaneous compilation.
https://miro.medium.com/max/348/0*qsLdNW5vqY9pEZmq
After each compilation, a list is updated with all newly compiled contracts. A compiled contract can then be selected with the Contract pulldown menu (F. in the image below).
Multiple contracts are compiled when one contract imports other contracts. You can select any of these contracts to check the information regarding that.
On clicking the “Compilation Details” button (G. in the image below), a modal opens displaying detailed information about the currently selected contract.
You can also publish your non-abstract contract to Swarm from the same tab.
Published data notably contains the ABI and the solidity source code.
After a contract is published, you can find its metadata information using the bzz URL located in the details modal dialogue SWARM LOCATION.
After each compilation, the static analysis tab builds a report, which is very valuable when addressing reported issues even if the compiler doesn’t complain. Any compilation error or warning is displayed below the contract section.

Deploy & Run
You can send transactions to the current environment using the Deploy & Run module.
To go to Deploy & Run module, click the ‘Run’ icon in the Icon panel.
In order to use this module, you need to have a contract compiled. So, if there is a contract name in the contract select box (in the image below it’s the pulldown that says Ballot), you can interact with this contract otherwise you need to select a new contract. To do that, you need to click the file in the editor panel to make it the active tab (in the image below, on the right side of the page in the main panel, the ballot.sol is the active contract). Once it’s active, go to the compiler module and compile it. You can then use the Deploy & Run module.
https://miro.medium.com/max/408/0*c641f8L8ILWj0MlG

Run Setup
The following settings allow you to directly influence the transaction execution:
Environment:
JavaScript VM: All the transactions will be executed in a sandbox blockchain in the browser. This means nothing will persist after you reload the page. The JsVM is its own blockchain and on every reload it initiates a new blockchain without saving the old one.
Injected Provider: Remix will connect to an injected web3 provider. Metamask is an example of a provider that injects web3.
Web3 Provider: Remix will connect to a remote node. You will need to provide the URL to the selected provider: Geth, Parity or any other Ethereum client.
Account:
Account: It represents the list of accounts associated with the current environment and their associated balances. On the JsVM, you have a choice of 5 accounts. If you use Injected Web3 with MetaMask, you need to change the account in MetaMask.
Gas Limit:
This sets the maximum amount of gas that will be allowed for all the transactions created in Remix.
Value:
This sets the amount of ETH, WEI, GWEI, etc. that are sent to a contract or a payable function. The value is always reset to 0 after each transaction execution. (Note: payable functions have a red button).
https://miro.medium.com/max/368/0*3oAomcl6DKvzXcBM

Initiate Instance
In the above image, the select box is set to Ballot. This select box will contain the list of compiled contracts.
Deploy sends a transaction that deploys the selected contract. When the transaction is mined, the newly created instance gets added (this might take several seconds). Note: if the constructor has parameters, you need to specify them.
At Address is used to access a contract that has already been deployed. It assumes that the given address is an instance of the selected contract. Note: There’s no check at this point, so be cautious when using this feature, and be sure you trust the contract at that address.

Pending Instances
Validating a transaction might take several seconds. During this time, the GUI shows it in pending mode. When the transaction is mined, the number of pending transactions is updated and the transaction is added to the log (see terminal).

Using the ABI
Using Deploy or At Address is a classic use case of Remix. However, it is possible to interact with a contract by using its ABI. The ABI is a JSON array that describes its interface.
To interact with a contract using the ABI, create a new file in Remix with extension *.abi and copy the ABI content to it. Then, in the input next to At Address, put the Address of the contract you want to interact with. Click on At Address, and a new “connection” with the contract will popup below.

Using the Recorder
A Recorder is a tool used to save a bunch of transactions in a JSON file and rerun them later in either the same environment or in another.
Saving to the JSON file (called senario.json by default) allows one to easily check the transaction list, tweak input parameters, change linked library, etc.
There are many use cases for the Recorder such as
After coding and testing contracts in a constrained environment (like the JavaScript VM), you can change the environment and redeploy it to a more realistic environment like a test net with an injected web3 or to a Geth node. The generated senario.json file has the same settings that are used in the Javascript VM. This means that you won’t need to click the interface multiple times to get the state that you achieved originally, making the Recorder a tool that saves you from a lot of hassle.
You can also change the settings in the senario.json file to customize the playback.
Deploying a contract often requires more than creating one transaction and so the recorder will automate this deployment.
Working in a dev environment requires to set up the state in the first place.
https://miro.medium.com/max/956/0*egwu5gdXkFeIx3dV

senario.json
To create this file in the recorder, you first need to run some transactions. In the above image, it has a 0 next to Transactions Recorded. This signifies that it isn’t the right moment to save transactions because there aren’t any. The number increase with every transaction you make. Then when you are ready, click the floppy disk icon to create the senario.json file.
The JSON file below is an example of the senario.json file.
In it, 3 transactions are executed:
The first corresponds to the deployment of the lib testLib.
The second corresponds to the deployment of the contract test with the first parameter of the constructor set to 11. That contract depends on the library. The linkage is done using the property link references. In that case, we use the address of the previously created library: created{1512830014773}. The number is the ID (timestamp) of the transaction that led to the creation of the library.
The third record corresponds to the call to the function set of the contract test (the property is set to created{1512830015080}). Input parameters are 1 and 0xca35b7d915458ef540ade6068dfe2f44e8fa733c
All these transactions are created using the value of the accounts account{0}.

Deployed contracts
This section in the Run tab contains a list of deployed contracts to interact with through the auto-generated UI of the deployed contract also called udapp.
https://miro.medium.com/max/368/0*nly7hd7qbm7y8igv
Click the sideways caret to open it up.
https://miro.medium.com/max/377/0*a05687Bzw2dcmD04
You will see the functions in the contract. The functions buttons can have different color buttons.
Functions that are constant or pure functions in Solidity have blue buttons. Clicking one of these does not create a new transaction. So clicking will not cause state changes but will only return a value stored in the contract without costing you a gas fee.
Functions that change the state of the contract AND that do not accept Ether is called non-payable functions and have an orange button. Clicking on them will create a transaction and thus will cost gas.
Functions that have red buttons are payable functions in Solidity. Clicking one of these will create a new transaction which can accept a value. The value is put in the Value field which is under the Gas Limit field.
https://miro.medium.com/max/916/0*o2CiduA40S4TyMlU
For more information see more about the Solidity modifier.
If a function requires input parameters you will have to input them.

Inputting parameters
https://miro.medium.com/max/242/0*sVn4IOu21oRvz1VL
Inputting parameters in the collapsed view
(Inputting all the parameters in a single input box)
Parameters are separated by commas.
The input box tells you the type of each parameter.
Numbers and addresses need not be wrapped in double-quotes.
Strings need to be wrapped.
In the example above the “delegate” function has 3 parameters.

Inputting parameters in the expanded view
Clicking the ‘down’ caret brings you to the Multi-param Manager, where you can input the parameters one at a time. Much less confusing!
https://miro.medium.com/max/242/0*dCIhZkq9ZNMHtwmz
In this view, even strings need not be wrapped.
Clicking the clipboard icon will encode the inputs and will copy them. Only a valid set of inputs can be encoded.
So in case you mistakenly input a unit in place of an address, clicking the clipboard will return you an error.

Passing in a tuple or a struct to a function
To pass a tuple in, you need to put in an array [].
Similarly, to pass in a struct as a parameter of a function, it needs to be put in as an array []. Also, note that the line pragma experimental ABIEncoderV2; needs to put in at the top of the solidity file.

Debugger
The Debugger module allows you to debug the transaction. You can use it to deploy transactions created from Remix and already mined transactions.
Debugging works only if the current environment provides the necessary features.
To access the debugger, you can click the ‘Debug’ button in the terminal when a successful or failed transaction appears there. Alternately, you can load the module from the plugin manager and then click the bug in the icon panel. Or you can run the debug command in the console to go to the debugger.
https://miro.medium.com/max/622/0*466xi6cCyQCIc8j1
This section gives information about the last compilation. By default, a new analysis is run at each compilation.
The analysis tab gives detailed information about the contract code. These details can help you avoid code mistakes and prompt best practices for you.
https://miro.medium.com/max/390/0*b-X1fWaxSdDdIbsx

Here is the list of analyzers:
Security:
Transaction Origin: Warns if tx.origin is used.
Check Effects: Avoid potential reentrancy bugs.
Inline Assembly: Use of Inline Assembly.
Block Timestamp: Semantics may be unclear.
Low-level Calls: Semantics may be unclear.
Block.blockhash Usage: Semantics may be unclear.
Gas & Economy:
Gas Costs: Warns if the gas requirements of the functions are too high.
This On Local Calls: Invocation of local functions via this.
Miscellaneous:
Constant Functions: Checks for potentially constant functions.
Similar Variable Names: Checks if variable names are too similar.

As banks slash interest rates, Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is increasingly becoming a favorite for savers. Emerging as a game-changer, DeFi protocols may enable stablecoin holders to make profits in more ways than just speculating.

At the same time, despite noteworthy improvements, the financial systems have major shortcomings: lack of universal access to financial services to a significant portion of the globe, inefficient cross-border transactions and lack of interoperability with blockchain protocols. This hinders stablecoin holders from earning interests from tokenized assets around the world.

Thanks to distributed ledger technology, legacy finance entities, and stablecoins can provide speed and convenience in accessing and settling payments in the global market. As well, stablecoin-holders can now earn interest via tokenized assets from legacy finance.

How can Stablecoin-Holders earn Interest from Legacy Finance?
Stablecoin holders can earn interests from legal finance through securitization and tokenization of assets.
What’s Securitization? Securitization is the process of converting, through financial engineering, an illiquid asset or group of assets into security.

What’s tokenization?
Tokenization is the process of issuing blockchain tokens (particularly, security tokens) that represents, digitally, the value of a tradable asset.

With securitization and tokenization, legacy financial organizations can use Security Tokens (STOs) to create digital representations of their assets. That is legacy finance can offer STOs to represent a share in a company, participation in an investment fund, or a piece of the organization’s assets. Such STOs can be sold in the exchange market as interest-bearing assets.

With tokens being exchanged at a predetermined ratio to popular stablecoins, stablecoin-holders can acquire STOs and earn interest, therein.

What challenges affect stablecoins’ ability to earn interest from legacy Finance?
Despite the opportunities, stablecoins and DeFi protocols have the potential to introduce a host of challenges and risks from an oversight, regulatory and public policy perspective.

Fundamentally, stablecoins and DeFi protocols are not similar. Thus, the opportunities and risks they introduce are dependent on the structure and design underlying each arrangement.

#1. Fair competition in financial markets
Regarding fair competition in financial markets, Global Stable Coins (GSC) arrangements have the potential to promote market concentration thus go against competition and antitrust policies. Due to strong networks that spur their adoption, GSC arrangements can achieve market dominance in a significantly short period.
In the event that GSC systems are built on proprietary systems, they’ll prohibit entry or increase barriers to entry to such systems. This may be the case where enterprises that govern the stablecoin arrangements control the key channels that consumers and businesses use to access a range of services.
Increased barriers of entry may adversely affect interest rates earned by stablecoin holders as GSCs that hold dominance can offer relatively low-interest rates. Conversely, with robust competition frameworks, GSCs will compete by providing better interest rate terms. This will benefit digital transformation while safeguarding consumer trust in the financial system.

#2. Financial stability implications
With GSCs and their ecosystems, fragilities like credit risk, operational risks, and maturity and liquidity mismatches may introduce challenges in earning interest rates for stablecoin holders.
Notably, GSCs whose reference assets include bank deposits can be exposed to liquidity risks and credit risks in the underlying bank. Elaborately, defaults or liquidity problems in a holding bank may limit GSC’s abilities to meet stablecoin and interest redemption requests.
At the same time, GSCs holding a wide range of assets may be exposed to liquidity and market risks associated with those assets and issuers’ credit risk. A fall in the reserve asset’s value, triggered by overall market conditions or by an idiosyncratic change in the fundamental value of the asset, can reduce the value of the GSC. This can adversely affect interests earned by stablecoin holders.
As such, stablecoins holding a wide range of assets should have liquidity arrangements to ensure they have adequate funds to meet redemptions requests. That’s even when stablecoins experienced significant selling pressure.

#3. Legal, regulatory and oversight challenges
A clear and transparent legal framework is a core element of payment, clearing and settlement arrangements. Stablecoins should be underpinned by clear legal guidelines that specify, with certainty and predictability, material aspects of how parties utilize a coin’s underlying technical arrangements.
Stablecoins and their underlying technical and contractual arrangements vary considerably. Their legal regime depends on a stablecoin’s design. Therefore, it is important for stablecoin issuers and holders, and DeFi protocols to be transparent to avoid the following legal, regulatory and oversight issues that may affect stablecoin returns.

#4. Market integrity challenges
With stablecoins, there are fewer opportunities for price manipulation, as they try to reduce price volatility relative to fiat currencies. However, different stablecoins have unique pricing criteria. In some stablecoin arrangements, designated market-makers can have significant market power and the ability to influence stablecoin prices. This introduces the potential for market abuse and possibilities for manipulating stablecoin holders’ returns.
As well, stablecoin issuers can intentionally (or unintentionally) mislead stablecoin holders on critical functions like the management of collateral assets. These forms of manipulation can lead to mispricing and dysfunction in stablecoin markets. Notably, a single party can play the roles of market-maker, trading platform and custodial wallet within a stablecoin ecosystem. As a consequence, market misconduct can have amplified and adverse effects on stablecoin returns.

Can DeFi be the way forward?
There being opportunities and challenges towards stablecoin-holders earning interest from legacy Finance, one major question lingers: Can DeFi or DeFi protocols be the way forward?
Truthfully, the DeFi protocol has the potential to exploit opportunities and remedy challenges associated with stablecoins earning interest rates from traditional financial institutions.
To comprehend how DeFi protocols can enhance the possibility of stablecoins earning interest rates from traditional financial institutions, studying TradeFinex as a possible solution is important.

What’s TradeFinex?
TradeFinex is a Distributed protocol for sustainable finance that’s built over the XinFin Network XDC Protocol. The decentralized peer to peer global Trade & Infrastructure Finance platform enables special purpose vehicles from Fintechs or banks to Distribute their trade finance assets to stablecoin token holders to generate interest
Powered by XinFin’s enterprise-ready blockchain protocol, the peer-to-peer platform has some important features. They include decentralized platforms, asset tokenization, smart contracting, integrated wallets, regulatory sandbox environments, and global payments and settlements.

How does TradeFinex work?
Leveraging the XinFin’s Hybrid Blockchain technology, TradeFinex automates and streamlines infrastructure project finance.
Through the XDC Protocol, TradeFinex digitizes and tokenizes legacy trade instruments into DLT-token-based smart contracts. These smart contracts are fully regulated under the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM).
As well, Banks and Fintechs, through the TradeFinex network, tokenize the Trade Finance Document after Securitization of the Assets Document and pay Distribution fees in XDC coins.

TradeFinex platform, a solution to Trade and Finance.

How can TradeFinex exploit opportunities offered by stablecoins?
TradeFinex can enhance financial inclusion through its globally-acceptable and accessible peer-to-peer payment system. Specifically, through XinFin’s XDC fueled tokenization scheme, the TradeFinex system can facilitate global trade and financing by eliminating the funding gap associated with disparate currencies around the world.

With XinFin’s common world token, Tradefinex can allow 1.7 billion adults on the globe who don’t have access to transaction accounts to access lending. That’s because investors or banks in developed economies, through XinFin’s XDC fueled tokenization scheme, have a way to overcome currency depreciation risks for any cross border investment or debt.

The TradeFinex platform offers real-time cross border payments and settlements via the XDC network. At the same time, the TradeFinex platform gives users incentives to form

XDC tokens for commerce. These features enable TradeFinex to exploit opportunities associated with stablecoins. Some of the opportunities include transferring funds via DLTs, providing more liquidity to markets, and reducing credit risk during cross-border transfers.

How does Tradefinex solve challenges that affect stablecoins’ ability to earn interest from Legacy Finance?
Regulated under the ADGM, Tradefinex overcomes challenges posed by stablecoins’ inadequacies and their implications on returns from Legacy Finance institutions.

With the UAE’s antitrust and competition laws, the focus is placed on a number of features. These include curbing monopolistic business practices, restricting economic concentration that may affect competition, and prohibiting restrictive agreements and practices that may enable firms to exploit their dominant position.

As a consequence, UAE’s antitrust and competition laws ensure that TradeFinex offers interest rates that are devoid of manipulation or that exploit their dominance in the market. This benefits digital transformation while safeguarding consumer trust in the financial system.

TradeFinex’s operations using stablecoins are regulated under the ADGM’s Financial Services and Markets Regulations 2015 (FSMR). As such, TradeFinex’s operations are licensed and regulated as Providing Money Services. Thus, digitization and tokenization of legacy trade instruments into token-based smart contracts are regulated under the FSMR to avert malpractices. This guarantees stablecoin holders suitable returns.

As well, under its crypto-asset framework, the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) regulates TradeFinex businesses. That is all services that relate to crypto-asset exchanges, intermediaries and custodians.

With ADGM’s robust framework, the full range of risks associated with Tradefinex activities is checked. To the stablecoin holder, this means Tradefinex is adequately regulated to reduce risks associated with Legal, regulatory and oversight challenges.

How can different stakeholders participate?
#1.Stable coin holders
Stablecoin holders can participate in two ways: set up their nodes or join the TradeFinex network through their regulated custodian exchanges.
With pilot transactions set to begin in the first quarter of 2020, Tradefinex expects to start distribution with USD 100 Million in Tokenized trade Instruments. This value will later be scaled to the billions.
Notably, cryptocurrencies provide an alternative investment class. But, the legacy finance world hasn’t actively connected to crypto-asset holders. TradeFinex network, however, bridges this gap. Specifically, through TradeFinex’s open API platform that’s compatible with legacy systems and ISO20022, users can tokenize trade finance assets or securitize assets to alternative asset investors.
Through the XDC token that’s paired against major cryptocurrencies, stablecoin holders can invest in tokenized trade finance assets or securitized assets. This would enable stablecoin holders to earn interest from previously unreachable legacy finance entities around the globe.
As well, the XDC token can be traded with the Ethereum token called XDCE at a ratio of 1:1. This gives token holders the flexibility to hold tokens in either form for utility. At the same time, XDC can be swapped with the ERC-20 at a ratio of 1:1. This swap can be facilitated on the AlphaEx exchange, which is compatible with all decentralized exchanges and is present in liquidity markets. This would ensure coins holders can redeem their holdings without challenges.

#2. Regulated Digital/Crypto Asset Exchanges
Regulated digital or crypto-asset exchanges, through the Tradefinex network, can participate by offering interest-earning options for their users. Through the XDC protocol,crypto-asset exchanges can allow their users to trade in a variety of assets, thus earning some returns.

#3. Blockchain Platforms/Networks
Existing blockchain networks can easily interoperate with XDC Chains. Through atomic swaps, different blockchain-token holders can access trade finance assets. These would permit such holders to invest in trade finance assets.

Today, the international shipping industry accounts for close to 90% of global trade. Fact: Shipping is the lifeblood of today’s global trade economy.

A form of Sea-Trade made famous this year by climate change activist Greta Thunberg which has been quietly revolutionizing the global shipping industry. As Seaborne trade expands, benefits for consumers around the globe continue to benefit from improved efficiency and competitive freight costs. An increase in Seaborne trade and usage of eB/Ls also benefits the world by decreasing Carbon Emission and supporting the environment for the next generation. Thanks to economic liberalization around the globe, the industry’s prospects continue to grow.

With the growth of the Seaborne trade, several challenges abide. Particularly on the Bill of Lading(BOL) front.

What’s a Bill of Lading?
Bill of Lading is a prerequisite to moving freight shipment. The BOL works as a receipt for freight services, a contract between a shipper and freight carrier, or a document of title. The legally binding document provides carriers with details required to process freight shipment.

What’s the importance of Bills of Lading in Global Trade and Finance?
A BOL is important in Cross Border Trade and Finance for a number of reasons.

These are as follows:
As a receipt for goods shipped: Details of a shipment are included in this document. The details may include — quantity, weight, packaging and any notable conditions of the goads in transit.
Confirms carriage and serves as a proof of the contract: A BOL serves as proof of a valid contract and agreement to deliver specified goods by sea. The contract exempts the carrier from any form of contract between a buyer and a seller.
As a document of title: A BOL is a document of title. That is it’s transferable through endorsement even when goods are in transit. A BOL allows a receiver of goods in transit to take possession of the goods as soon as a vessel dock.
As a binding Contract of Carriage between the Buyer and Carrier: A BOL is a binding contract between a carrier and a buyer/receiver of goods in transit. It highlights the features of goods being transferred. Terms agreed upon outside the bill of lading aren’t included in a BOL.

What is eB/Ls or Electronic bill of lading?
An electronic paperless bill of lading is a bill of lading issued electronically instead of being printed on paper and issued physically to the customer as a hard copy.

Benefits of Electronic bill of lading
EB/Ls introduce a number of benefits — compared to paper-based bills of lading. These include: speed and ease of transfer, reduces administrative costs, simplifies dealing with errors, and reduces risks of fraud.

eB/Ls also promotes trades faster with more transparency and dependency on machines rather than humans and it also helps trade parties to not stop with current problems in the world like CoronaVirus or Covid-19.

Benefits notwithstanding, electronic systems introduce a new risk: Hacking. Citing the “ MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company v Glencore [2017] EWCA Civ 365” case, hackers gained access to the pin causing unwanted inefficiencies.

Challenges facing eB/Ls and eB/Ls-platforms currently in use

Uncertainty over the legality of an electronic transferable record
With legal rights associated with traditional paper B/Ls being well-established, the legal status of eB/Ls remains unclear. Only the USA has a law that outlines and supports the use of eB/Ls. That’s despite several countries trying to adopt eB/Ls.
At the same time, there’s no clear pattern on how to establish rights based on an electronic acknowledgment given by the carrier to the holder of the eB/L. At present, whether the law catches up with the technology to ensure the transferability of rights and liabilities under an eB/L without specific contractual agreement remains uncertain. This hinders widespread eB/Ls adoption.

Principal Issues for Banks
With the uncertain legal status of eB/Ls, banks don’t treat security over original paper B/Ls as legally equivalent to security over eB/Ls. (Source)
Notably, there are risks that a bank holding an eB/Ls may not be able to claim possession of goods in certain cases. For instance, there’s a risk that failure of a legal system to recognize eBLs, as part of its local law, may deny holding banks their claims.
While such risks may be overrated, in cases of insolvency, the rights of a bank depend on whether the property has passed from seller to buyer. Whilst such terms are dependent on particulars in a contract of sale, banks can be exposed to risks of losses in case of a buyer’s insolvency. Due to the instant nature of bills the risk is high, however, paper bills also hold some risk.

Lack of onboarding
Digitization platforms like TradeTrust, Bolero, and essDOCS have established surefire central electronic platforms for the transfer of eB/Ls. However, In most of the cases, they fail to onboard all parties involved in the transactions.
Without proper onboarding of all stakeholders, Electronic bills of lading aren’t receiving the full support and confidence of all participants in the international business scene. That’s predominantly because of security and authenticity in such documents.

Lack of clear guidelines under the law
Without clear guidelines on the cross-border transactions under law, a lot of uncertainties — regarding custody of the original documents of Bills of Lading held as eB/Ls — abide.
At the same time, legal problems arise due to the fact that laws in many jurisdictions are limited to paper-based bills of lading. And without proper guidelines in law, more stakeholders remain reluctant to accept e-bills as there’s no clear-cut approach to transfer rights normally obtained when bills of lading pass on to relevant transferees.

Traceability challenges with eB/Ls
Lack of traceability of external parties and non-members in eB/Ls is a stumbling block. As well, most eB/Ls Platforms require high subscription fees, which are not feasible for the SMEs that conduct one-time transactions.
To remedy the problem, there’s a need for modern registries in which security interests granted with eB/Ls — evidence of affreightment, contract of carriage, and control of title —can be recorded. At the same time, these registries should be reasonably inexpensive and secure from tampering. What’s more, such modern registries should be easily accessible to authorized users, easy to use, and globally recognized and accepted.
Regarding the banking industry and other legally-sophisticated players in the industry, eB/Ls should provide security that matches or that’s nearly comparable to UCC section 7–106(b)(1–6) as possible.

Lack of clear laws on dispute resolution on double financing
Without an effective dispute resolution framework, dispute resolution for double financing for eB/Ls becomes a major roadblock. Banks, which are important players in the trade, may withhold their engagement with E-bills if they increase operational risks.
So as to give the E-Bill functional equivalence, developers of eB/Ls should develop frameworks that enable the replication of laws and regulations in paper bills of lading. Particularly, there’s a need for a system that prevents double-spending/financing by providing the guarantee of uniqueness.
(Guarantee of uniqueness refers to the phenomenon where specific details of a transaction are stored in a tamperproof system allowing verifiability. In a blockchain, distributed ledgers are cryptographically secured on the Blockchain by assigning a unique id or hash and a timestamp when it is added to the network. Since blocks are cryptographically linked to adjacent blocks, anyone seeking to alter contents in eB/Ls would have to modify the content in all blocks to hide evidence. That’s impossible as new blocks are generated 24/7 as more shipping transactions are recorded.)

Can Blockchain remedy problems facing eB/Ls and eB/Ls Platforms?
Following a lengthy incubation period, electronic bills of lading (eBLs) are finally taking their first tentative steps in the shipping world. Through closed systems currently in operation, only banks, traders and carriers that are members can participate. These closed schemes cannot, therefore, be considered as true replacements of traditional paper bills of lading.
However, Blockchain technology makes it possible to offer an open system to shipping stakeholders. Transactions are recorded on a block-by-block basis and each block is added through a computationally difficult puzzle. Therefore, blockchain can remedy problems facing eB/Ls and eB/Ls Platforms.

https://miro.medium.com/max/698/0*yI2koj1EAVnztOy6
Figure 1: (source)
With blockchain, an open and decentralized system(illustrated in figure one above) allows synchronizing of ledgers held by all the participants. This allows participants in the shipping industry to reach a consensus-based on the priority of their transactions.
At the same time, the blockchain solution offers a more secure and transparent platform. That’s because key stakeholders — throughout the process — can check the eB/Ls, and it’s not possible to edit or forge blockchain-based electronic documents.

However, the blockchain system faces some legal issues. With data sharing across jurisdictions, there’s a likelihood of cross-border data-protection issues arising. What’s more, the legal efficacies of smart contracts are yet to be fully tested under the law of contract. Particularly, with blockchain’s decentralized technology, and there being no single controlling entity, who would bear liability if the system were to fail?
These challenges, however, can be remedied through blockchain-based tokens.

Blockchain-Tokens remedying problems facing eB/Ls and eB/Ls Platforms
By stamping additional information on blockchain tokens — through blockchain’s in-built scripting capability — tokens can be assigned for different purposes.

Through blockchain technology, eB/Ls Platforms can circulate tokens that function like transferrable documents. That is documents that entitle the rightful holder to claim the performance of an obligation indicated in the document. For instance, a carrier of goods can issue an electronic bill of lading — -in the form of a blockchain-based token — — to represent a right to demand the carrier to deliver a consignment. The token can thereafter be transferred to sellers and subsequently to the buyers on the blockchain-based eB/Ls Platform.

Today, tokenization of electronic documents (especially bills of lading) and the safe and secure transfer of such documents is possible through TradeFinex Network that’s offered by TradefinexTech Ltd.

TradeFinexTech Ltd.
TradefinexTech Ltd. is an entity regulated by the Abu Dhabi Global Market Authorities (ADGM). The entity specializes in the deployment of tokenized assets on Public/Private Blockchain Networks via regulator-friendly instruments as compared to other eB/Ls.

TradeFinex — a decentralized application (dApp) — runs on the open-source XinFin Hybrid Blockchain. XinFin was developed to eliminate inefficiencies in financing and global trade and permit institutions to provide real-time solutions and enable cross border smart contracts.

TradeFinex is licensed by the ADGM to serve as a custodian, to settle, and to finance tokenized assets in Trade Finance’s secondary market. An example of a trade finance asset is a Bill of lading.

How can TradeFinex Network work with eB/Ls and eB/Ls platforms?
With TradeFinex Network, tokenized electronic records are safely and securely transferable through private keys issued by a regulated custodian. Through the open-source XinFin Blockchain Network, control of multi-party eB/Ls transactions is possible. Specifically, through MutiSig Smart Contracts in the blockchain network, stakeholders can synchronize ledgers held by all the participants.

https://miro.medium.com/max/1296/0*CAlajD2pEE-bNCfp
Figure 2: Multi-party signatures to transfer Tokenized assets
As well, the partnership between eB/Ls Platforms and TradeFinex distribution networks enable liquidity by making it possible for eB/Ls Platforms to participate in secondary markets for tokenized Trade Finance assets.

https://miro.medium.com/max/1296/0*XkvlPMvKYKciqjuY
Partnering with eB/Ls Platforms, TradeFinex works with regulators like Abu Dhabi Global Market to recognize tokenized financial assets like bills of lading. This ensures all operations are within regulatory guidelines.

TradeFinex Network creates a standard bridge from platforms like Bolero,essDOCS, and TradeTrust subsequently allowing such platforms to participate in the secondary market. This is possible since TradeFinex is fully regulated by the ADGM and licensed to take custody, settle and finance Trade Finance assets like tokenized Bill of lading in the secondary market.

To ensure traceability of eB/Ls, XinFin Blockchain, which is open source, does not limit access as compared to proprietor blockchain networks. As well,the XinFin Blockchain network avails limited transaction data on the public blockchain network for Traceability purposes.

How does TradeFinex Network Benefit eB/Ls Platforms?
The adoption of the TradeFinex network has several benefits to eB/Ls Platforms. Notably, tokens/tokenization has a more clear legal status of the resulting Electronic Document as compared to a mere electronic version.

TradeFinex creates a bridge to onboard buyers and suppliers on eB/Ls platforms via the TradeFinex website link “Bills of Lading ‘’. EB/Ls platforms, on their part, extend 25% of revenues/fees generated from buyers/suppliers in billing credits to TradeFinex.

For eB/Ls that join TradeFinex’s origination partner program, they’ll have access to the eB/Ls of interested buyers and suppliers. In return, TradeFinex will distribute 75% of the funding fees to such Platforms.

What’s more, initial members at XinFin Blockchain Network preferring products optimized for Trade and Finance earn a Governance council Membership. The position is only available for initial industry players in eB/Ls. This option also has provisions for the allocation of XDC from the ecosystem’s development pool.

Co-Founder of TradeFinex.org Atul Khekade said:
“The Coronavirus crisis has dismantled global trade and the economy to the core. It is probably the largest economic crisis in our time. The health of citizens needs protection. The medical staff needs personal protective equipment. Most of the affected countries are so dependent on the global supply chain for PPEs and medical equipment that there is a huge shortage of them.”

There is a massive shortage of personal protective equipment and medical equipment such as ventilators. The problem is that major medical equipment manufacturers have limited production capacity and the ventilator costs over USD 20,000. MIT open-sourced a $100 design for ventilators and there are many regional/local manufacturers who can manufacture the device to meet the demands subject to quality checks. The same goes for masks.
Bank and non-bank funders can quickly set up a Masternode to participate in the trusted network. To become a Masternode on the XinFin Network, they will have to stake 10 million XDC coins.

Designers or manufacturers of personal protective equipment can securely share their designs with the funders over a secure peer to peer network by paying a nominal 1 XDC (approx. USD 0.001 at its average rate). XDC or XDCE tokens for payment of utility fees can be acquired through its liquid markets listed at: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/xinfin-network/

About TradeFinex.org
TradeFinex.org is a decentralised finance network designed for finance distribution from originators to funders. TradeFinex is powered by XinFin Network. Utility applications deployed on XinFin Network can be accessed by paying fees using XDC crypto Coin.

Right now, XDC Network Masternode Numbers is restricted to 108 master Nodes and we are reaching 108 numbers soon. What After 108 Numbers of Masternode on XDC Blockchain Network?

As a Decentralized decision making Initiative, XDC co-founders and a technical team like all the masternode holders and community members to provide suggestions for the future network enhancement.

Increase of MasterNode Count to 150 to get more XDC staking? Right now, Every masternode holder requires to stake 10Million XDC and each Masternode holder gets XDC rewards with each epoch.

Increase in Rewards with masternode count so the masternode holder gets a good return? (Not recommended as it may increase supply and inflation pressure )

Keep the same number of MasterNode locked to 108 and additional members have to wait until one member from 108 masternode resigns. This may create more Demand for the masternode membership. (recommendation by the technical community)

Feedback / Suggestion to get more XDC burning and XDC staking for long term sustainable and healthy ecosystem development.

We would like to get your suggestions and the most suggested idea will be considered as the voice of the community.

London — 22, June 2020 –Enterprise-grade Hybrid Blockchain platform XinFin[XDC] Network has joined ITFA to enable financial institutions and fintechs to unleash benefits of tokenization and digital assets for Trade Finance with XDC Network. ITFA is the worldwide trade association that represents the rights and interests of banks, financial institutions, and service providers involved in trade risk and asset origination and distribution.

Atul Khekade, Co-founder of XinFin[XDC] Network said “Tokenization and Digital assets bring various benefits to the legacy paper-based Trade Finance industry. Cross border sensitive data related to trade finance transactions can be turned into non-sensitive tokens for the MSMEs, corporates, and lenders to enable data sharing across borders by complying with laws of the land. Tokenization of trade instruments brings liquidity from alternative asset investors to the trade finance market enabling MSMEs with critical liquidity support to sustain and grow after the coronavirus pandemic and the resulting economic slowdown.”

Sean Edwards, Chairman of ITFA and Head of Legal at SMBC Europe said “We welcome XinFin to ITFA. Technology providers are playing a most important role in global trade and receivables financing. This is a growth area for our 300+ member community and we are committed to helping our global membership benefit from the new options by sharing expertise in both regulatory and technology developments.”

XinFin lets institutions connect their legacy systems to the XinFin Hybrid Blockchain using the XDC Protocol and financial messaging compatible with ISO 20022 standard. The XDC token is the underlying utility token that powers XinFin’s Hybrid Blockchain. The XDC token acts as a settlement mechanism for DApps (distributed application) built on the XinFin Hybrid Blockchain. XDC supports a growing number of use cases which is why XinFin aims to collaborate with ITFA fintech members as well as with incumbent financial institutions.

Hello!   I'm hoping I can find some answers about what happened to my missing xdce.  Don't know if this is the right place and a lot of the conversation is over my head but I really need some help to figure out what happened last night. 



I was using my Enjin wallet last night to exchange some ETH to XDCE using BANCOR.  Ive done it a few times, no problems.  Never sent it somewhere else.  There was an existing balance on my wallet (79K) which has now somehow disappeared.  I never withdrew this to another address but now it's gone.  How did this happen?

It appears to have gone to an XinFin wallet,  transaction is here:
 https://enjinx.io/eth/transaction/0xf581dfc82d7442d5e0c7fb0bd7058d83ec3795aa4997007a4b74d3350675f864?source=EnjinWallet-1.8.3

Contract address 0x41AB1b6fcbB2fA9DCEd81aCbdeC13Ea6315F2Bf2
Destination address 0x823eb8D70D0929177918bDC7C86572E34590D3A5

I did not send it or type an incorrect address.  it was a transaction that happened directly after the trade ETH-XDCE.  No one else has access to this phone.  WTF happened to my crypto?  Any help would be appreciated.

XinFin Network mainnet coin XDC and ERC20 token XDCE create confusion between new community members. This guide will help to understand the difference between XDC and XDCE. Regularly few users send their XDC to XDCE wallet and vice versa, this article will help those users to recover the tokens that were sent to different wallets by mistake.

Differences between XDC and XDCE.
XDC (XinFin Digital Contracts) is a mainnet coin with a consensus algorithm of XinFin Delegated proof of stake (XDPoS). XinFin mainnet coin XDC was live on 1 June 2019 and acts as a settlement mechanism for DApps built on the XinFin Hybrid Blockchain. The XDC token address will start with xdc, for example, xdc0x167na90knnsjadbjkbj…
XinFin Network mainnet coins can be stored on various wallets such as XinFin Andriod Wallet (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xdcwallet), XinPay (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/xinpay/bocpokimicclpaiekenaeelehdjllofo?hl=en), Web wallet (https://wallet.xinfin.network/), Copper Custodian wallet (https://copper.co/), Guarda Wallet (https://guarda.com/).

XDCE is an Ethereum token (ERC20) with a consensus algorithm of Proof of Work (POW) that gives the token holder flexibility to get benefit from the Ethereum Network’s various utilities DApps. XDCE is compatible with all decentralized exchanges and has a presence in liquidity markets and supports XDC liquidity. The token address of XDCE starts with 0x, for example, 0x12hgsjdkj45knjxb…

On the Ethereum network user always creates a wallet with Keystore or with mnemonic phase and stores their Eth or ERC-20 tokens on a wallet. XDCE can be stored on any ERC-20 Compatible wallet or hardware wallet. But it’s mandatory to take the back up of keys.

How to recover XDC that was sent to the ERC20 wallet?
If the user has sent their XDC token to any ERC-20 wallet address, it can be easily recovered. Users need to log in with the same Keystore, Privatekey or mnemonic phase to XinFin Original web wallet at https://wallet.xinfin.network after login with the ERC-20 keys user will find their XDC token on XinFin web wallet.

Users can also download a mobile wallet or extension wallet (XinPay) and log in with the ERC-20 keys and recover their XDC tokens.
Smart contracts deployed on the Ethereum network can be easily ported to XinFin Network. Bounty (https://xinfin.org/bounty) worth 10000 USD is applied to the users porting from Ethereum Network to XinFin Network.

Yes, all within a second of me converting some ETH for more XDCE.  I've been around the horn with Enjin and  they have no answers fro me other than my "wallet has been comprimised" but I simply don't see how my keys were stolen.  They are only on paper in my desk unlabeled without a passcode.  Even if someone found them why would they wait until the very second I was making a transaction.

It seems like a glitch to me.  I can't get any answers how this happened.

https://miro.medium.com/max/576/1*QTBLoKtQQO9lmrGt1kYCGg.png

The XinFin Hybrid blockchain network has shown tremendous growth since its launch in 2019. In the last 18 months, the XinFin Network Mainnet has added 19,411,041 blocks and added more than 120 Masternodes and Backup Nodes to support the smooth functioning of the network.

The XinFin Network has brought its community members a range of benefits such as smart contract support, near-zero gas fees, rapid transaction speed of fewer than two seconds, and also a reduction in energy consumption by 99% as compared to popular PoW networks.

Growing Demand for XDC
As the demand for XinFin Network grows and we onboard more community members, the usage of the XDC — the native coin of XinFin Network — is also seeing high demand and usage.

Since the launch, many industry players including exchanges, wallet providers, and custodians have partnered with us to integrate the XDC ecosystem or build applications on it. Other platforms such as Blockdegree, TradeFinex, and MyContract also progressed significantly and boosted the utility of the XDC.

On the other hand, there has been a recent spike in Ethereum gas fees, forcing exchanges to increase their gas fees for XDCE (ERC20 token). To help community members pay lower fees, these exchanges have also switched from XDCE to XDC. This shift has caused a high surge in the usage of XDC.

Burning XDCE Tokens
With XDC gaining more popularity among community members as compared to XDCE tokens, the XinFin community has decided to reduce the supply of XDCE tokens.

Hence, the network will burn 5 billion XDCE tokens taking the total supply of XDCE from 15 billion to 10 billion tokens. The community also plans to further reduce the supply of the XDCE tokens in the near future.

Users must, however, note that the swap between XDCE and XDC will be available only on Alphaex.net Exchange (https://alphaex.net/trade/XDC-XDCE) so that they may enjoy the utilities of the Ethereum network as well.

The XinFin team is also working on the automatic swap for XDCE and XDC.

People who are still confused with XDC and XDCE please watch the video: https://youtu.be/SMhAReoVRdc

We Are Open to Feedback
We believe that we can deliver the best of the XinFin network and the XDCE and XDC tokens to our users only when we know what our community members need. This is why we welcome feedback from our community members with open arms and work on them to make the network ready for the digitized future.

With alternative finance expanding rapidly — thanks to new originators and technologies entering the SME finance space — , there’s bound to be radical transformations in the market. As new SME financing platforms emerge, tokenisation and distributed finance (DeFi) will enable organizations to tap into new and unconventional liquidity sources — top among them, retail investors.

Replay webcast Tokenisation & Digital Assets 2 September 2020 (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4)

Featured on World of Open Account’s (WOA’s) webcast (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6dHXr7K6w4&feature=emb_logo) is an example of a lending platform that can reshape the commercial financing industry. (WOA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6dHXr7K6w4&feature=emb_logo) is a learning lab where new originators and inventors can showcase the capabilities of their commercial financing platforms).The webcast was Co-chaired by Andre Casterman and Erik Timmermans. Recently, Casterman joined XinFin Network’s advisory team. (https://medium.com/xinfin/xinfin-network-secures-ex-swift-corporate-trade-head-andre-casterman-as-an-advisor-b4703f146963)

Featuring Tradefinex and XDC, represented by the cofounders of the XinFin network — Atul Khekade (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=284) and Ritesh Kakkad (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ritesh-kakkad-b65a0a2/), the webcast goes into the nitty-gritty of how the XinFin network will reshape the Tradefinane space and benefit Medium and Small Enterprises(MSMEs).

Top on the webcast’s agenda (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=299) were:
* An introduction to tokenisation and digital assets with regards to the XinFin platform.
* Xinfin tokenization for alternative or unconventional lenders
* Demos on the XinFin platform — invoice factoring using QuickBooks and Xinfin’s liquidity aggregator.
* A brief Q&A session to explain further workings of the alternative financing platform.


Tokenisation, Digital Assets, and XinFin Network

On the webcast (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=475), XinFin’s co-founder explains that the Xinfin is a liquidity network that allows MSMEs and financial originators to access decentralized liquidity pools.

At the same time, the webcast expounds on what drives liquidity (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=590) in the trade finance market. Invoices play an important role in driving liquidity in the supply chain. With more than 36 billion invoices sent between MSMEs and other corporations, invoices play an important role in the transfer of liquidity within the trade finance space. What’s more, the webcast highlights the role of bills of exchange or drafts and letters of credit in driving liquidity within the global supply chain. Notably, letters of credit account for more than USD 17billion of the global trade value. (The total value of global trade is roughly USD 17 trillion, much of which comes from the global banking market).

Whilst banks have attempted to meet the demand for liquidity in the global trade finance market, Xinfin’s cofounder pointed out (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=697) that there’s still a need to fill the gaps therein via alternative financing. As more jurisdictions implement regulations that guide and categorize alternative investment, the alternative asset investor category is growing by the day.

With XinFin’s network, alternative investors in the global supply chain can prove that they are accredited Know Your Customer (KYC) investors. (The objective of KYC checks and guidelines is to prevent the misuse of financial organizations by criminal elements involved in money laundering activities). As highlighted in the webcast (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=898), proving that investors are KYC accredited happens by verifying an investor’s XDC net worth via a KYC regulated custodian on the XinFin Network. Once verified, alternative asset investors can seamlessly declare their net worth, regardless of jurisdiction.

Here’s a snapshot of a KYC accredited investor’s net worth on the XinFin network
https://miro.medium.com/max/561/0*XP5bUmxOZL23HmBa

The benefits that XDC’s asset verification process avails are: a seamless verification of an alternative investor’s net worth; increased liquidity within the global trade finance market — since virtual assets are easily converted into cash as compared to assets in markets like real estate.


Tokenization

As explained in the webcast (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=1023), tokenization is the process of converting an offline obligation into an online digital contract that’s transferrable digitally. On the XDC protocol, tokenization follows the English common law standard framework.

Backed up by a comprehensive framework, the XDC system allows offline signing of the documents by counterparties, who record an obligation for legal purposes. To clarify, counterparties can contest the obligations therein, in jurisdictions like Abu Dhabi (https://medium.com/xinfin/xinfin-becomes-the-official-participant-of-abu-dhabi-global-market-sandbox-to-live-test-tradefinex-580e41e2a1bc) and Singapore (https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/singapore-based-xinfin-unveils-blockchain-powered-tradefinex-platform-with-indias-largest-trade-organization-assocham-668776153.html).

To understand the process of tokenization, the presenters highlighted invoice factoring using Quickbooks (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=1198) to show how invoices can be added to smart contracts on the TradeFinex platform. For a more detailed guide on invoice factoring using QuickBooks, here’s a short video (https://youtu.be/krqBx0yGprE).

With invoices and other trade instruments playing a role in the transfer of 17 trillion in the global finance trade, the digitization of offline obligations permits access to a variety of alternative asset investors. Thanks to a decentralized platform, the XDC protocol will avail the largest market infrastructure and liquidity source for enterprises in the global trade finance platform.

As the XDC protocol is accepted as a standard in the global trade space, more liquidity will be unlocked to maximize benefits accrued by MSMEs.


Unlocking Liquidity from Alternative Pools — Liquidity Market Aggregator

To enable originators/platforms to attract liquidity from a variety of asset investors, Tradefinex offers a liquidity market aggregator. The liquidity aggregator can connect with any Distributed Ledger or non-distributed ledger tech platform through a middleware.

Validus (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=1568) is one platform that connects with Tradefinex’s liquidity market aggregator. The platform offers a platform where originators can attract liquidity from alternative asset investors. Leveraging technology to cut costs of financial intermediation, Validus allows SMEs to reap the benefits associated with short and medium-term financing from alternate asset investors.

To highlight the potential of alternative asset investments to SMEs, Validus’ lending exceeds SGD$532,008,755, as of writing (https://validus.sg/about/).


Interest Payment Via Tokens

On the Tradefinex platform, alternative investors have the option of receiving interest payments in currency or fiat form (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=1703). Thanks to Tradefinex’s hybrid system, asset investors can receive payments directly into their wallets. Payments can be liquidated in any regulated exchange market, around the world.

Leveraging the versatility of the alternative investment markets and the ease of payment, the XDC network has 108 (+6 backup) XDC master nodes (https://youtu.be/_6dHXr7K6w4?t=1775). Note; Master nodes are decentralized participants in the network. Large alternative investors like pension funds can run a master node, allowing them to unlock liquidity for the market.

Currently, the volume liquidated ranges between two and five million USD, daily.

To ensure easy integration between legacy systems, the Xinfin network offers a robust middleware that allows organizations to connect with peer-to-peer lending platforms. Leveraging the versatility of middleware in the XDC platform, a wide array of origination mechanisms can plug into the XDC framework and participate in unlocking liquidity.

In regards to bearing risks — fraud, and insolvency — , the XDC framework permits originators to work with their desired risk profiles. What’s more, through credit delegation, third parties can lock an originator’s tokens to safeguard small scale alternative asset investors. For larger organizations, proper insurance mechanisms can be established to shield such entities from risks inherent to invoices.

Working with regulated global markets, investors can participate from different jurisdictions, seamlessly. With provisions like digital dispute resolutions at Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), investors from all over the world can mitigate risks, safeguarding their investments in the alternative asset market.

What is a stand-by Node or backup Node?
A standby node is a type of node, which exists mainly to replace a permanent node when it fails. That is why; it is also termed as a back-up Node. It does not contain any data or performs any computations. However, when it takes the place of a failed node, it contains all its projects and performs all computations of the replaced node.

What is the Purpose of the Stand-by Node or Backup?
Stand-by Node keeps a check on traffic inflow so that it can automatically take over when the active node fails. Thus, it makes the Blockchain Network more robust and stable. If any Master node / Validators nodes resign or go out of the network, then Standby Node becomes a master node and starts participating to write the Network Transaction.

Master node vs Stand-by Node.

Differences between a master node and a stand-by node.
Setting up a Stand-by Node with XinFin MainNet in 8 Simple Steps.
XinFin Nework’s architecture is based on a system of 108 Masternodes with XinFin Delegated Proof of stake (XDPoS) protocol wherein smart contracts can run effectively in 2 second transaction confirmation time. Any number beyond and above 108 is considered a Standby Node or Backup node.

A step-by-step guide to Setup a Stand-by Node with XinFin MainNet in 8 Simple Steps.
Step 1: Download the Stand-by Node installer by downloading from the One-Click Installer tab of https://xinfin.org/setup-masternode.php. Select the option as per your system’s operating system.
Alternatively, you can also download it using a Docker Compose file.

I am confused. Should people interested in investing in XDC own XDC or XDCE?

Both have same value. You can invest in any.

On the morning of December 3, a hot-swap wallet on AlphaEx Exchange with over 300 Million XDCe was hacked. XDCe is an ERC-20 token that is swappable 1:1 on Alphaex exchange with XDC, Xinfin’s network mainnet coin. The subsequent dumping of the stolen XDCe by the hacker on decentralized exchanges threw the price balance of XDCe out of equilibrium with its more secure counterpart XDC, resulting in a significant price drop of XDCe. As a result of this drop, many people rushed to buy the lower-priced XDCe in hopes of exchanging them 1 for 1 with XDC.
At no time were customer funds compromised.

Having 2 tokens under these circumstances has created a unique challenge as we have worked to resolve the issues surrounding this hack and implement a solution that supports our community’s success moving forward. During this time, AlphaEx has put forth a plan to allow the swap of the purchased XDCe tokens by the community in an effort to honor the 1:1 swap.

As of Dec 15th, Alphaex has reopened the exchange to restart deposits and withdrawals and start to process the swap of XDCe purchased from the time of the hack through Dec 6th 5:30 GMT, for XDC.

Xinfin is cooperating with AlphaEx. In addition, Xinfin has pulled liquidity from exchanges selling XDCe in an effort to stop the sale of stolen tokens. In all of this, Xinfin will keep working in the best interests of the community. We thank you for your continued patience and we are grateful for all of the support that we have received.

On January 26, 2021, XcelTrip — a decentralized travel booking platform — has unfurled its latest XinFin Mainnet integration, which now enables the platform’s users to pay for their hotels and flights using XDC tokens. Traditionally, the process has to be completed using Credit/Debit Card, Net Banking, or UPIs, which entailed significant security risks, including breach of confidential information, interception, phishing, and so on.

Furthermore, centralized payment methods have, time and again, been found guilty of compromising the user’s privacy, both in favor of governments and monopolistic corporations. On the contrary, decentralized, crypto-based payments leverage advanced encryption mechanisms, thus ensuring optimal degrees of security, privacy, and autonomy for end-users. Backed by such features, crypto-assets are increasingly emerging as the preferred method for online payments and transactions — a trend that XcelTrip’s upgrade is duly integrating.

https://miro.medium.com/max/700/1*YVYpaZUcqXwLVjiEi5zEuA.png

As a unique, blockchain-based platform within the travel sector, XcelTrip has ties with over 1.5 million hotels from around the world, alongside offering booking services for over 400 airline companies. Following the aforementioned integration, the platform’s global clientele will be able to avail of these services using their XDC tokens. In turn, this contributes to the ongoing drive to strengthen mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.

https://miro.medium.com/max/700/0*zVqEijm_3XzWRMiK

In comparison with a majority of popular cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, the XinFin Digital Contract (XDC) Network has a substantially greater throughput and speed. In this regard, the network can handle over 2,000 transactions per second, with a confirmation time of around 2 seconds. Furthermore, considering the minimal fee of $0.0001, transactions made using XDC tokens are cost-efficient and affordable. In other words, XDC-based payments mitigate all of the major usability and efficiency shortcomings that customers face while using cryptocurrencies.

https://miro.medium.com/max/529/0*Zh0Oc3sWvYYlOJhq

Innovating the first-of-its-kind solution for travelers from around the world, XcelTrip will also enlist XDC as a currency for its official wallet, which strives to bridge the gap between consumer use-cases and merchant payment solutions. Using the XcelPay Wallet, consumers can now make payments using their XDC tokens, at a wide range of restaurants, spas, hotels, bars, convenient stores, and gas stations.

Simultaneously, eCommerce business owners can leverage the robust, seamless, and easily-integratable XcelPay API to start accepting payments in XDC and other cryptocurrencies. Accepting crypto-based payments will certainly provide a substantial competitive edge to businesses, backed by the domain’s immense potential and rapidly-expanding user community. The collaboration between XcelTrip and XinFin marks a promising forward step in this journey.

About XcelTrip
XcelTrip is a next-gen, blockchain-based, and decentralized solution, designed with the intent to disrupt the trillion-dollar travel industry. Alongside an expanding partner base of over 1.5 million hotels and 400 airline companies, the platform strives to democratize use-cases within the blockchain and cryptocurrency domain. Leveraging the platform’s web, android, and iOS applications, XcelTrip users can pay for their travel needs using Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dash, Litecoin, Verge, KAU, and Binance Coin. XcelTrip also has a native utility token — XcelToken Plus — and is now integrating the XDC token.

About XinFin
XinFin is a first-of-its-kind, public-private hybrid blockchain platform, fully optimized for international trade and finance. Powered by its native XDC token, the network has smart contract compatibility and can handle over 2000 TPS, with a minimal fee of $0.0001 and a confirmation time of 2 seconds. As a whole, the XDC ecosystem comprises multi-dimensional solutions, ranging from robust KYC/AML protocols to Masternode (Validator Node) implementation toolkits. An innovative XinFin Delegated Proof of Stake (XDPoS) consensus mechanism secures the network’s underlying XDC Chain, thereby ensuring optimal scalability and enterprise-grade usability. The ownership of XDC tokens implies access to several real-world use cases, such as TradeFinex which connects SMBs in the trade sector with a growing community of alternative investors. Further, along with XinFin’s roadmap, such use-cases are on track towards addition and diversification, as underscored by XcelPay’s adoption of the XDC token.

To ensure optimum usability and ease-of-access, developers at D’CENT have designed an extremely simple setup process for these wallets. To start managing their XDC tokens using the D’CENT wallet, users need to perform the following steps:

• Log-in to their D’CENT wallet.
• Select the preferred language.
• Create a new wallet or recover their existing wallet by following the on-screen instructions.
• Create a personalized 4-digit security pin.
• Scan their fingerprint using the biometric verification device to generate their unique 24-phrase recovery seed code.

Existing Biometric Wallet users, who are already logged into the D’CENT application need to upgrade their biometric firmware by visiting D’CENT’s support page (https://dcentwallet.com/support/FirmwareUpdate) for upgrades. The company also provides a detailed user-guide (https://userguide.dcentwallet.com/biometric-wallet/firmware-update) to assist the process. As for D’CENT’s mobile applications, the XDC integration is compatible with versions 4.5.0 or higher, both for Android (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kr.iotrust.dcent.wallet&utm_source=dcent_medium&utm_campaign=xdc_support) and iOS (https://apps.apple.com/kr/app/dcent-hardware-wallet/id1447206611) users.

On account of this integration, D’CENT becomes the first hardware wallet for the globally-expanding, enterprise-ready XDC network. Realizing that the special event calls for adequate celebration, as well as incentive adoption of their innovative solution, D’CENT has announced a limited-period offer.
The first 100 customers to newly purchase the Biometric Wallet will get $89 worth of XDC, while the next 100 customers will get $50 worth of XDC. Further, the D’CENT Official Store (https://dcentwallet.com/Shop/detail/fcea8887cece407a8e433b0964de9d5f?utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=XDCOfficial&utm_campaign=202101-XDCOfficial-Biometric-promo&lang=en) is now offering a special, discounted price for members of the XDC Community.

Further, along with XinFin’s roadmap, such use-cases are on track towards addition and diversification, as underscored by XcelPay’s adoption of the XDC token.

The XinFin Digital Contract (XDC) network — an enterprise-ready, hybrid blockchain ecosystem — is expanding rapidly, driven by a plethora of utility and use-cases. In the context of rising community participation, prioritizing security, privacy, and usability is emerging as a matter of utmost necessity.
Envisioning an optimally decentralized world, XinFin strives to foster steady and spontaneous adoption by SMBs, enterprises, and governmental entities. Among other things, there’s a need to make XDC-based transactions fully secured and private, and in doing so, the XinFin Web Wallet offers a novel Send Offline Functionality. In this article, we discuss the major aspects of this feature, as well as provide a step-by-step guide to offline XDC transactions.

What is Send Offline Functionality (SOF)?
Send Offline Functionality or SOF is a security-enhancing feature of the XinFin Web Wallet, involving two computers. One of these computers remains online, while the other has to be disconnected from the internet, either by using the Aeroplane Mode or otherwise. The offline computer processes the transaction off-chain and the online computer broadcasts the transaction to the network. As the user’s private key is used and stored on the offline computer, the process minimizes the risks involving malware and/or hacks.

Hardware Requirement

Computer 1 (Offline): This computer has to be used after complete formatting and re-installation of the OS, apart from completely disabling the network card.
Computer 2 (Online): This computer shall be connected to the internet. Consequently, it must have updated antivirus and internet security solutions installed.
USB Drive: A fresh USB drive is to be used, dedicated solely to the purpose of transacting XDC offline.
Camera (Optional): Although optional, one might use a camera for scanning QR codes.

Transacting XDC Offline: A Three-Part Process
Broadly, the Send Offline Functionality can be split into three parts or tasks, as enumerated below:
Task 1: Downloading and running the offline (local) XDC wallet.
Task 2: Generating the transaction on the offline computer.
Task 3: Sending the transaction using the online computer.

Task 1: Download & Run the Offline XDC Wallet
Step 1: Download the latest version of the wallet software from XinFin’s official GitHub channel (https://github.com/XinFinOrg/Wallet/releases).
The setup files are available as XDC.Wallet.vX.X.XXXX.zip (here, ‘X’ represents the version number). Make sure that you download the latest version.
After downloading the file using the online computer, transfer it first to a USB drive (or, any other storage device).

Step 2: Plug the USB drive into the offline computer, extract all the files in the zip document, and save them in your desired location. When the extraction is complete, open the destination folder and double click on the ‘index.html’ file.
https://miro.medium.com/max/700/1*_u93X-hF2gEtOnu72ezRKA.png
index.html File

After completing Step 2, your local XDC wallet will open in your browser, along with the warning that it’s unable to connect to the network. Understandably, this is normal and you need not worry. Since the wallet is offline, you won’t be able to view your XDC or other token balances from this interface. If you wish, you can perform these actions securely and publicly using XinFin’s native network explorer, namely XinFinScan.

Task 2: Generate the Offline Transaction
Step 1: Once you have the offline wallet open from Task 1, make sure you select XinFin Network visible on the interface.
https://miro.medium.com/max/700/1*rGki_dBrlVPcNKKYQbiuoQ.png

Step 2: Access your wallet normally, while selecting the ‘Send Offline’ option from the menu available on the left-hand sidebar. Using this feature, you can send XDC OR all Custom Tokens deployed on the XDC network.
https://miro.medium.com/max/700/1*yq8QunwwNCtAePN_HPZoPw.png

Step 3: In the transaction-building phase, you can manually input the nonce, transaction details, receiver’s address, and the gas price. Otherwise, you can import the JSON file from the connected USB drive.
To generate the nonce, visit the Send Offline Helper page (https://broadcast.xinfin.network/) using an online computer. Under the Utilities section on this interface, click on the Select Functionality dropdown menu and select Nonce. Then, type in your offline computer’s address (sender’s address) into the Address segment, which will automatically return the nonce in the relevant section.
In case you are sending to a contract, you may have to use a higher gas limit to account for the additional data.

Task 3: Send the Transaction Using XinFin Web Wallet
Step 1: Visit your XinFin Wallet (Web) from the online computer, apart from plugging the USB drive containing the signed transaction’s text file into this computer.

Step 2: In the footer section at the bottom of the page, find and choose the Send Offline Helper (https://broadcast.xinfin.network/) option to execute your offline transaction. Alternatively, you can directly visit the Simple Wallet page mentioned in Task 2, Step 3.

Congratulations! You have successfully performed an offline XDC transaction and can verify its final status using XinFinScan.
To conclude, let us put in a word of caution. Although the protocol undergoes stringent testing, it’s advisable to begin by transacting small amounts, especially because the solution is still in its Beta phase. Apart from the native wallet mentioned above, users can also perform offline transactions using other XDC wallets.

Xinfin is being pumped heavily. What is the reason of this pump. Yes I know most alts are in green but xinfin is doing much better. Is something brewing up?
Is binance listing on cards? ;)

I'm curious about this coin myself. Doing some research it's unclear how viable it is. They show Roger Ver as being one of the advisors for this coin but nothing else on the website. The website itself is quite well done, the tech seems interesting but it's hard to tell what kind of traction they are truly making with this coin.

As you said the "pump" aspect of it is a bit concerning. Does anyone have more details on this coin?

I suggest you join xinfin telegram group for updates. This is not your regular dump and pump project.

The XinFin community has decided to further reduce the supply of XDCE tokens, after the last major 2.1 billion, 300 million, 200 million, 500 million, 500 million token burn. Hence, the network burns 500 million XDCE tokens taking the total supply of XDCE from 1.4 billion to 900 million tokens. The community also plans to further reduce the supply of the XDCE tokens in the near future until the contract termination of XDCe (currently proposed 31st March 2021). The users holding XDCE are requested to swap their XDCE with XDC before 31 March 2021. Swaps for the XDCE users will be provided by AlphaEx.

thank you for your help regarding the swap problem :)

XinFin FinTech, an enterprise-ready hybrid blockchain technology company, is now set to launch its regulated XDC index following a strategic collaboration with the regulated index provider Vinter.

The Vinter XinFin XDC/USD Index is a key component to launch exchange-traded products containing the XDC token - the native utility token and fuel of The XDC Network.

Atul Khekade, founder of XinFin explains: "The XDC Network is a hybrid blockchain network empowered by the XDC digital asset for settlement purposes. XinFin focuses on regulated industries such as payments, trade finance, and capital markets. By partnering with Vinter, we bring our institutional partners a regulated index to develop their investment products on."

Jacob Lindberg, founder, and CEO of Vinter adds: "Building a regulated XDC index is an important first step for XinFin to institutionalize its offering and to build financial products based on XDC. The index is designed to be tradeable and reliable."

Positioning XDC for Institutional Investors

The Vinter XinFin XDC/USD Index is a single crypto asset index that has been developed to provide a rules-based and transparent way to track the price of XDC in US dollars (USD). Both the administration and calculation are compliant with standards required by the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) and the EU Benchmarks Regulation (EBR) - ensuring competent record-keeping and data integrity.

The XDC index methodology combines the best of traditional calculation methodologies while making appropriate adjustments for factors such as liquidity, exchange stability and regulatory requirements.

With the crypto market still in its infancy, there remains a challenge to establish accurate indexing methods - however, Vinter has successfully overcome these challenges through its reliable and accurate indexing solution, making the Vinter XinFin XDC/USD Index an attractive proposition for investment funds, custodians, and investors looking to gain exposure to an asset that has appreciated by more than 2500% in the last year alone.

The index is set to be launched on the first of March 2021, following approval by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). Subsequently, the index will be available to trade on a regulated exchange platform.

LONDON, UK / ACCESSWIRE / March 31, 2021 / LAB577, an established software firm at the nexus of emerging technology and financial services, has today announced that XinFin FinTech, an enterprise-ready hybrid blockchain technology company is the first company to utilise the DASL Crypto Bridge. This bridge enables XinFin's XDC to move from The XDC Network over to the public Corda Network to be used as a settlement token inside the Corda ecosystem.

DASL is an adaptable technology solution for digital assets, built on Corda and uniquely designed to be interoperable with other DLTs to allow for consolidation of technology over time. The launch of the first Corda to crypto bridge, powered by DASL, means that value can move freely between the Corda public network and other leading public blockchain networks.

With this unique bridging technology, data can be recorded privately on the Corda network, while limited data sets are transferred to the XDC public network- in essence, mitigating institutional risk and turning Corda into a hybrid network. By extension, this shared ledger will connect the XDC token with every other CorDapp on the public Corda Network.

"Regulatory agencies and financial institutions have selected both Corda and The XDC Network as suitable platforms to engage with blockchain technology. They did not just randomly throw a dart at a board," said Atul Khekade, co-founder of XinFin.

This R3 Corda bridge also enables XinFin to significantly increase its interoperability within the Corda ecosystem, providing direct access to the business networks and financial institutions active on the Corda Network. These include the trade finance consortia operating on Corda. Such Corda network participants are especially relevant to XinFin's TradeFinex platform.

Further, this enables XinFin to continue developing their vision of unifying siloed networks into one metaphorical tree with many branches. This tree finds its roots through the DASL to XDC network bridge - the first of its kind - which will work to support a Corda ecosystem where enterprises are provided full control over the privacy and speed of sensitive data and transactions, while public blockchain states allow for data to remain transparent and verifiable.

"Given the tremendous work XinFin have done to support their community and to support their cryptocurrency, they have become the leading token of value within the public Corda network. We are delighted to support XinFin with DASL to get the crypto bridge in place, making it a first for the public Corda network," said Richard Crook CEO & Founder at LAB577.

DASL has a strong track record in providing accelerating technology solutions for digital asset ventures.

Atul Khekade explains: "We're delighted to be able to demonstrate how XinFin and the XDC network are capable of not only crossing the bridge between different types of ledgers but also how the ecosystem is expanding. Through this first step, we are enabling interoperability with the Corda Network."

The bridge is an important milestone in achieving interoperability and demonstrating the use cases underpinned by XinFin's XDC network. With this step, XinFin and Corda open the door for more institutional participation in blockchain technology. These developments forecast a future where digital assets, such as the XDC token, operate as fuel powering a new decentralized financial experience.

"This truly is the first step towards the future of an inclusive financial system, where people can use these applications and tokens on different platforms and interoperate with each other - this is the financial system of the future," concluded Khekade.

It offers a production-ready, robust, finance grade application which can be used for tokenization of any type of underlying asset - a complete, hosted solution for issuance, portfolio management, trading and settlement of digital securities.

Xinfin appears to be very much alive, and they are silently working on the development of the project. With its growing ecosystem, XDC Network has launched several ecosystems, including Fathom (PLI), Plugin (PLI), Impel, StorX (SRX), Comtech Gold (CGO), LedgerFi (LFT), and XVC TechXDC. As part of the ETHDubai Online Hackathon, the project announced a $10,000 bounty for developers who deploy on XDC Network or any layer2 infrastructure.
