XDC is short for XinFin Digital Contract and was created as the native token for the Xinfin blockchain network, a hybrid network that combines the power of public and private networks.

The XDC Network has become increasingly popular for being faster than Bitcoin and Ethereum, capable of handling up to 2,000 TPS, while also being cheaper, with average transactions costing approximately $0.00001. In addition to this, the XDC Network continues to defy market odds.

On The Flipside
- Despite claiming its position as the top-performing crypto on December 15th, the XDC Network (XDC) is currently trading far below its all-time high.
- On August 25th, XDC hit its ATH of $0.1939. At the time of writing, it is trading at 58% less than those giddy highs.
Recent Developments and Future Events
The XDC Network has built a blockchain technology solution that is becoming increasingly attractive to developers, smart contract architects, and enterprises looking to deploy their applications on the network.
On December 2nd, the XDC Network completed its Andromeda Upgrade at block number 38383838, which brought with it changes to the XDPoS consensus protocol of the network.
The update changed how fees are computed on the network. The block owners now receive transaction fees in place of the miners. Andromeda also upgraded the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) of the XDC Network to support the latest version of solidity.
This means that developers on the network can now bypass extensive customization when deploying code from different EVM chains. This feature will support XinFin’s ecosystem partners and enhance internal product development.
Following the network update, the XDC Network announced a partnership with Trustology, a leading institutional crypto custodian wallet provider.
The partnership will see XinFin work with Trustology to provide secure, institutional-grade on-chain custody for the XDC Network’s native XDC utility token.
The partnership will additionally serve as a first step in the network’s plans to build a secure, compliant trade finance network across decentralized finance (DeFi) applications and markets. It will also facilitate access for non-bank investors to create more financing opportunities.
Community
The XDC Network emerged as a black horse in the crypto space, solving two critical issues that have long plagued the more prominent blockchains, those being scalability and network fees.
