Wrapped XDAI (WXDAI)

Wrapped XDAI (WXDAI) is a cryptocurrency token that operates on the Gnosis Chain, one of the first Ethereum sidechains. The Gnosis Chain allows contributors worldwide to run a node, resulting in a network secured by over 120,000 validators. With its diverse validator set and community governance, Gnosis Chain maintains a neutral and credible environment at a lower cost than the Ethereum mainnet. Wrapped XDAI is EVM-based and secured by at-home stakers globally, providing users with familiar tooling and trustless bridges to the mainnet.

Gnosis Chain’s core values prioritize resilience and credible neutrality. A geographically diverse set of validators secures the chain and operates as a community-owned, anti-fragile network. The Gnosis Validator Incentive Program aims to incentivize validators from underrepresented countries. With a 14-16% yield and a cost to start staking at $111.65, Gnosis Chain offers a compelling platform for validators. As a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), Gnosis encourages anyone to contribute to the network’s development and decision-making process. The GNO token serves as the staking and governance token for the GnosisDAO, allowing stakeholders to actively shape the ecosystem’s future.

On the Gnosis Chain, various decentralized applications (DApps) are powered by Gnosis technology. Some notable examples include POAP, a proof of attendance protocol that issues redeemable non-fungible tokens; Dark Forest, a decentralized real-time strategy game built with zkSNARK technology; Azuro, a decentralized betting protocol addressing pain points of centralized betting and blockchain prediction markets; Circles, a blockchain-based universal basic income system; and Giveth, a peer-to-peer direct funding platform for public goods. With a growing ecosystem of DApps, Gnosis Chain provides users with diverse tools and applications to explore.
