All frequently asked questions
What is XDC Network?+

XDC is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain focused on real-world assets, trade finance and payments. Its public network is complemented by enterprise subnet tooling.

Can I use my Ethereum development tools?+

XDC supports Solidity and Ethereum-compatible tooling. Start with the developer documentation and test your integration on Apothem before deploying to mainnet.

How do I start as a new user?+

Choose a supported wallet, review the risks and explore applications in the ecosystem directory. Provider availability and terms vary by location.

How do client diversity and quantum research differ?+

Client diversity addresses shared implementation risks. Post-quantum research addresses future cryptographic risks. Each effort has its own validation and adoption milestones.
