Intro to xx network

Overview of xx network

📄️ What is xx network?

xx network is a secure and efficient decentralized ecosystem. Founded by the "Godfather of Digital Currency", David Chaum. The xx network MainNet launched in November 2021. xx network consists of a fast, low-fee quantum-ready layer 1 blockchain, xxChain, built in tandem with the most private communications network in the world, cMixx. By leveraging the "xx Developer Kit" (xxDK), any application or blockchain can route their traffic through the xx network's communications layer in order to provide metadata privacy and quantum-secure encryption for all types of data communications.

📄️ What is cMixx?

cMixx is the end-to-end encryption tool we use to protect your privacy. It uses a revolutionary metadata shredding technology that obscures the metadata you share when sending messages, making payments, and transferring data. cMixx does this by mixing all transactions together in batches or “anonymity sets” and processing them simultaneously, which shreds all metadata and prevents third parties from analyzing activity patterns and connecting senders to recipients. Read more about it in the cMixx whitepaper.
