We are grateful for the incredible support of our Node operators, vibrant community, robust ecosystem, dedicated team, and valued partners. Their contributions have been instrumental in propelling XDC Network to this success. Now let’s take a moment to look back on the milestones we’ve achieved over the past year.

This global outreach strategy helps to introduce XDC Network’s capabilities to a wider audience, connect with potential collaborators within the Web3 space, and provide valuable insights and resources to developers and enthusiasts.

XDC Network’s commitment to community building extended beyond these global events. The Dubai XDC Dev Center hosted numerous workshops and events, fostering a vibrant hub for learning and collaboration.

Growing Partnerships and Expansion

XDC Network has fostered a robust ecosystem through strategic partnerships with SBI Holdings, Securitize, Tradeteq, IMDA, Ankr, Umbrella Network, ChainIDE, WEFi, Supra’s dVRF, SolidityScan and more. These collaborations enhance contract integrity, expand the network’s reach, and provide reliable oracle solutions, driving growth and innovation in the ecosystem.

Fuelling Innovation: XDC Accelerator Program

The XDC Accelerator Program, partnered with leading accelerators like Foundership and Tenity, empowers early-stage blockchain startups with mentorship, funding, and marketing support. This initiative is already underway with two active programs, and XDC Network is actively seeking partnerships with more accelerators to further enrich the ecosystem with successful DApps.

AI Innovation in Web3

CodeRun.ai is an AI tool developed by the core team of XDC Network. Launched with the vision of making coding accessible to individuals of all ages and skill levels, Coderun.ai empowers users to bring their ideas to life through its code-generation capabilities. Coderun.ai remains an invaluable resource for individuals and businesses seeking to leverage the power of blockchain technology in their projects.

SubSwap for XDC Subnet

XDC Subnet is a technology that allows you to create a secure, scalable, and decentralized network within the XDC Ecosystem. It enables various use cases, including creating private subnets, deploying decentralized applications (dApps), and more. Recently, we launched SubSwap (Subnet Swap) — a cross-chain Dapp built on XDC Zero, enabling seamless asset transfers and swaps across various subnets and the mainnet.
