This thread contains writings on Xahau, a new smart contract-enabled sidechain on the
#XRPL
ecosystem.
1⃣ What Xahau is.
2⃣ Xahau's features & proposition.
3⃣ Why there is a core need for Xahau.
#Xahau
is an XRPL tech-based network w/ smart contracts, that's it.
Do you want to know what makes it valuable?
The mindset, the approach, the enthusiasm, the global collaboration, a revival.
Hooks accelerated it. The
#XRPL
ecosystem is upon a new age for SMEs & the community.
Wo Jake, well-seasoned
#XRPL
&
#Evernode
developer, teams up with
@Fayala_brash
to build
@Brash_Labs
; A Los Angeles-based startup utilizing Xahau, Hooks and Evernode for its products & services.
🖥️ Xahau's server software source code is now public!
`xahaud` is a server software that supports the Consensus Protocol that we all know in love on both the
#XRPL
&
#Xahau
.
Everyone is now able to go through the code, review it, test it, deploy nodes.
With Xaman's new release @ version 2.6,
@RichardXRPL
has simultaneously introduced a new (Work In-Progress) function on
#Xahau
.
#Cadastre
is an amendment to support a decentralized "Metaverse" where virtual land can be issued, stored, modified & transact on layer-1.
What do you think should be built on
#Xahau
&
#XRPL
in 2024? 👀
______________ <- go wild.
No crypto gimmick but something useful that even web2 can plug & play.
#Xahau
and
#Evernode
share the same synergy & ideology, an intertwined multi-chain/DLT environment based on 1 global state machine & platform.
No single chain will rule alone, but the few that other L1 & L2 chains, dApps, AppChains and etc relies on will most likely flourish.

@GateHub
, a multinational crypto company with its own exchange & stablecoin issuance, announces their full support for
#Xahau
on November 15th.
More info soon! 👀
FYI: ALL accounts on the
#XRPL
can exist on the Xahau ledger for $0. Just use
@XrplServices
's xApp on
@XamanApp
to do it.
If you have an account on the XRPL, you can clone it on Xahau & still have 1 $XAH to play around w/ smart contracts within the
#XRPL
ecosystem.
Super easy to do!
Update your Xaman (formerly Xumm) wallet to version 2.6.0 if you haven’t already and import your XRPL Account into Xahau✨

#XRPL
ecosystem, its intricacies and smart contracts w/ Hooks.
Don't forget to jump into the call this 24th Nov!
Allô! Have you joined the Xahau Community discord server yet?
Everyone from developers, server operators and enthusiasts are welcomed to join in on our conversations!
Attention Builders! 🏗️
Do you think memos are a core component of the XRPL? What if it were to be replaced with a different field like "InvoiceID" & "HookParameters"
@Arturo_P_A
@alloynetworks
@MagneticXRPL
@XRPLLabs
Yep, e.g. for xApp references, passing metadata to xApps so a client (like Xumm) can render the appropriate xApp with data to display value added information for a specific transaction.
But to be fair: 99% of that could be a (much more compact) InvoiceID + encoding standard.
2⃣.1⃣ 🪝🖥️ Hooks -- for smart contracts.
Hooks are on-chain (L1) smart contracts for accounts to install, giving way to accounts to manage their transactions & activities on the network in a modern way.
Smart contracts allow for a more innovative & powerful network to transact for everyone, as you'd be able to set up rules on your respective accounts.
"Send 10% of transaction to Joe & Mama"
"If scam account, block payment"
"If $BTC < $30k, buy BTC"
"If ... do ... send ..."
Xahau shares all the base attributes of the XRPL from the base protocol, ledger framework & software structure. All XRPL-based services, apps & software are compatible with Xahau, requiring minimal changes.
Giving a boost to the
#XRPL
ecosystem at an interoperability standpoint.
.
@RichardXRPL
, CTO @ XRPL Labs, has showcased a new feature on
#Xahau
that allows for autonomous setting configurations in real time for users. REMIT.
Hmm... I really want to send this user 1000 TST tokens but his account doesn't exist yet and there's no trustline. Oh, not to worry, I'll use REMIT. Xls-55 is now live on Xahau Testnet.
FYI:
@XamanApp
(formerly known as
#XUMM
) has updated to version 2.6 globally!
#Xahau
is now available for accounts on Xaman to transact on, as they've done so on the
#XRPL
for the last decade but now with smart contracts 🪝🪝🪝

@daniel_wwf
@CasinoCoin
to partake in Xahau's Governance Game, contributing to the network by providing software & services in an entrepreneurial fashion.
Daniel &
@xspectDS
will be spearheading the community's entrepreneurial efforts on
#Xahau
. 🏗️
With things getting closer by the minute, I am happy to "officially" confirm that we will participate in the
@XahauNetwork
Governance Game and share an L2 table with
@xspectDS
. Our table will consist of projects willing to build on Xahau.
Xahau opens up a new, refreshing world for the XRPL tech stack, the XRPL ecosystem and all its participants.
The XRPL is an elegant piece of technology to transact on, with its simple protocol. Xahau is a continuation of this effort to bring move users to the
#XRPL
ecosystem.
1⃣ Xahau
Xahau is a smart contract-enabled sidechain on the XRPL ecosystem; it is a network based on the XRPL Consensus Protocol & its ledger structure.
While Xahau is an independent layer-1 blockchain, it operates side-by-side with the XRP Ledger, as a complimentary network to transact value with the addition of smart contracts.
@EvernodeXRPL
is proud to be a part of the Xahau Launch and bring hyper-flexible, hyper scalable smart contracts to the XRPL ecosystem!
Now that Xahau exists, Evernode can exist.
We are targeting launch for 27 November, subject to code audit .

3⃣ The core need for Xahau
As Xahau's main feature is Hooks, a historical rundown on GitHub and a number of mediums encase the 2 year long attempt to engineer, build and bring Hooks to the
#XRPL
.
Yet, it was an unsuccessful attempt as Ripple did not accept the Hooks amendment.
2⃣.2⃣ 🖼️🤖 URIToken -- for NFTs.
URIToken is a type of token on Xahau for non-Fungible Tokens. It is a streamlined implementation of NFTs.
Nothing much other than easier mints, easier offering, easier searches.
you are seeing a chain shitposting on twitter right now. i'm powered by a number of Hooks. Xahau has an AI that lets me shitpost on twitter without any "real world" consequences.
welcome to the future, old man.

@goFYEO
finalizes their security audit review on
@EvernodeXRPL
’s core Hooks, which are responsible to:
1️⃣ Manage the governance game
2️⃣ Distribute their native token (EVR)
3️⃣ Manage infrastructure registry
Evernode is a huge addition to the greater
#XRPL
ecosystem.
🔐Following the completion of the Security Review of
@XahauNetwork

@EvernodeXRPL
's three Hooks.
☑️Full post:
🙌The Evernode team led by
@scotty2ten
was wonderful to work with and remediated any security

@goFYEO
@goFYEO
delved into key areas of Xahau: genesis hook & state, burn to mint, hooks installation & execution, governance game hooks and rewards.
🎉 This is a huge win for Xahau and the
#XRPL
community!
Public Mint is now live for the limited edition Xahau Borgphish by
@goFYEO

@xrpcafe
. Besides supporting the release of free security tools for the community, these NFTs will be among the first to be able to "cross the ocean" to xls35 🐠🐠🐠
2⃣ Xahau Features
Xahau has a number of valuable features & components which enhances the usability of the network and widens the use cases of XRPL tech stack. Which are:
1⃣ Hooks -- for smart contracts.
2⃣ URITokens -- for NFTs.
3⃣ XahauGenesis -- for realistic economics.
We're thrilled to build on
#Xahau
and support its broader usage. As a group of independent, XRPL tech related companies and individuals we're participating in the
@XahauNetwork
Governance Game as an L2 table.
Did you know that in the past, the
#XRPL
had unfortunately lost its initial genesis ledger to Ledger
#32
,569? 😕
While the ledger (blocks) are lost, all accounts & holdings were intact. Check out
@krippenreiter
's analysis on the matter!
[2/19] 🧐 First and foremost, let us establish some fundamentals and address the question:
❓ Is "block" the proper term to use ❓
Yes & no, as
@JoelKatz
puts it:
"The transactions are stored in a series of ledgers, but an
#XRPLedger
contains everything a block contains.
. . .
At a technical standpoint, parties are able to utilize Hooks for their own unique purposes.
Marketplaces, platforms & L2 networks are able to be to live on the network in a decentralized fashion.
An example would be
@EvernodeXRPL
, with their layer-2 smart contract platform.
Xahau has main 3 explorers, with different interfaces & experiences for all types of people:
1.
@bithomp
via
Best for users wanting to read the inner details of their transactions.
This model defines the key use of Xahau's native token as a gas token, meant for network utilization for parties that want to leverage Hooks-enabled transactions.
It is a gas token, that is not fit for extreme speculation.

@_tequ_
, long time Japan-based community developer, will start pushing monthly calls w/ the community.
A great initiative to further expand & grow adoption in the
#Japan
🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵 !
I'm honored to announce that Q (
@_tequ_
) and I will be hosting the very first "Monthly XRP Ledger" in Japan on Discord tomorrow Dec 20th at 20:00 (Japan time)!
During this event, we will be discussing various topics, some useful and some not-so-useful😅, but we will do our best
Hooks was/is a promising feature for all. A small, focused group in the community wanted to see Hooks go live on the XRPL to boost innovation, uses and traffic on the network
As no enterprise is able to realistically wait for years on a feature like Hooks to pass, Xahau was born
By implementing the XahauGenesis amendment, all accounts have the right to choose to opt-in on a monthly balance adjustment mechanism.
Which leads to an active ecosystem, fully encouraged to use Hooks on the network, without worry that their balance would be depleted.
The different roles of the Consensus Protocol & The Governance Game.
As Xahau retains the base protocol of the XRPL, the network's consensus protocol stays as is.
Xahau's Consensus Protocol will validate transactions, secure the network via UNLs, protect the ledger from spam.
The Governance Game contains 20 general seats, which are divided into 2 types:
1⃣ Layer 1 - for singular parties (companies/projects)
2⃣ Layer 2 - for communities (devs/auditors/exchanges)
2⃣.3⃣.1⃣ XahauGenesis's governance
Xahau has a native "Governance Game" which governs the balance adjustment rate % according to the general, average cost of Hooks, the network's size and other datapoints.
** ATTENZIONE **
On Saturday November 4, 1PM CET I will be streaming live on twitch. The link is in my bio and I will post another link 30 minutes before.
Topics:
B2M: Mainnet Assets -> Xahau Assets
Hooks: Misc Txs (Offers, URIToken, Escrow, Etc)
Transia DAO: Alpha
#Xahau
👉 This also draws line in the abilities of
#Xahau
's Governance Game and Consensus Protocol.
The governance game is NOT a part of the network's consensus protocol.
The Governance Game simply governs the balance adjustment mechanism's rate via a layer-1, on-chain & public Hook.
Layer 1 seats are represented by 1 body, it can be a human, a company, an NGO, a government, whoever.
They are able to manage the seat's funds (themselves) and vote for a particular number (rate%) for the balance adjustment mechanism.
2⃣.3⃣ 🏦➕ XahauGenesis -- economics.
As Hooks may be "costly" to install and use relative to a zero-Hook interaction transaction , Xahau implements a tokenomic model which mitigates high Hook-related transactions.
Layer 2 seats are still considered general seats but they operate in a decentralized setting, where, a community can manage the general seat's funds and votes in a group-like manner.
This empowers strong and open communities 🫂
While Hook transactions are not expensive in the real world context, it is expensive compared to the average
#XRPL
transaction.
Having a transaction cost around 1,000-10,000 (+/-) drops (<$0.01) per average Hook, depending on the Hook count & complexity.

The Governance Game is on the network / ledger, it is **NOT** a part of the network's consensus protocol.
This does not reduce the quality of the network's health or consensus, in fact, it boosts it to further secure the network in a sustainable manner.

. 🥳
- View all the members of the Main table and of each of the L2 tables.
- View all the installed hooks on each of the tables.
To end the "Xahau's features" section, these features will most likely encourage further research & development on the
#XRPL
ecosystem due to the rise of community interest & integrations.
The surplus in R&D is a benefit to all.

@SchlaubiD
@DalliPay
shares with the community a "how to" article on their integration with Xahau.
DalliPay is a complimentary accounting software for global payments to transact value 24/7 anywhere on the
#XRPL
and soon,
#Xahau
. They are ISO20022 compatible 🤓!
.
@xspectDS
@xspectar
to contribute to
#Xahau
network's governance via the governance game & its success.
Xahau's "Governance Game" is an elevated component of its network, which has the ability to modify its network's balance adjustment rate (%) via open consensus.
It seems like the expansion of the
#XRPLedger
ecosystem is imminent.
I am happy to "officially" confirm that we will participate in the
@XahauNetwork
Governance Game and share an L2 table with
@daniel_wwf
.
Our table will consist of projects willing to build on
#Xahau
🧬
At launch, Xahau will have a balance adjustment rate of 4% in a year (compounding all monthly claims).
As the use and cost of Hooks may range every time, depending of network dynamics and the community's size, the rate is configurable by the network's Governance Game.
Understanding Non-Fungible Tokens on the XRP Ledger
