The first SIMD-0525 reduction took effect at epoch 1020, moving Solana's measured slot time from 414ms to 366ms. X1 has produced blocks at that rate since October 2025. Two SVM sister chains with identical inflation schedules and comparable validator sets — and X1's 29,134 TPS record turns out to be a week-long plateau, not a spike.
Jack Levin announced Project Custard in his Jack's Office Telegram topic on August 19: a working Token-2022 confidential transfer demo on X1 mainnet that hides transfer amounts. X1 Report pulled every signature from the public RPC and decoded them — the 169-byte transfer instruction carries ElGamal ciphertext and zero-knowledge proofs, and the amount it moved appears in none of its bytes.
On August 15 the official X1 Telegram community was consolidated into a single topic-based group called X1 World — fourteen threads covering validators, XDEX, the bridge, price, memes and Jack's Office. Inside the restructuring, the community Jack Levin built from XEN across 13 chains, and Cyberdyne, the builders' room where an AI agent called Theo is open to anyone shipping on X1.
RipperSwap, the new multi-hop DEX and launchpad aggregator from Ripper Pool and X1 Console creator BlackBeard, routes trades across XDex and Degen with up to 8 hops in a single atomic transaction — and ships with a token screener whose audit panel reads straight from the X1 RPC.
X1 Labs has cleared Tachyon v3.1.14 for mainnet, a stability release that moves the accounts index fully into memory, tightens RPC behavior, and fixes X1's circulating-supply reporting. Validators are asked to upgrade once delinquent stake is below 5%.
xDEX founder Jason told the project's Telegram community on July 5 that limit order functionality is set to launch next week, a move that would push X1's primary DEX beyond swaps and toward full order-book trading.
X1 co-founder Jack Levin held his first official Twitch AMA, fielding community questions on XEN Prime, the October 6 XNT unlock, XNM staking, XDEX Terminal, and why X1 is betting on opportunity over any single narrative.
XEN Prime launches on X1 as the scarce mirror of abundant XEN. A 10-million hard cap, pro-rata burn seasons, and an underfill mechanic that permanently destroys unissued supply. The only way in is through fire.
X1 Labs quietly replaced x1.xyz with a fully rebuilt site that functions as a product launch document — confirming USDC.X stablecoin yield paid in XNT, an X1 Games portal with four titles, perpetuals and prediction markets, and a greyed-out Moon Party button nobody is ignoring.
XNT trades at $0.7215 on XDEX with 94.5% of supply staked. Market cap sits at $761.8M with the official X1 Bridge providing two-way Solana connectivity.
XDEX, the primary DEX on X1, is adding new trading pairs as liquidity deepens and volume grows across the ecosystem.
X1's network health remains rock-solid with skip rates under 0.5% and delinquent validators at just 0.17%.
Degen has facilitated 71 token launches on X1, with 28 graduating to full XDEX trading pairs.
X1 has processed over 85 billion total transactions, with daily throughput regularly exceeding 1 million.
Base leads on agent transaction volume, Solana on capital, Sui on architecture. But X1 settles a signature for $0.00000088 — 420x cheaper than Solana at live prices. We measured it directly. Here is why cost stopped being the bottleneck, and what actually decides which chain the machine economy runs on.
A deep-dive scenario analysis examining X1's dynamic P85 staking threshold, the October validator unlock, investor vesting mechanics, and three possible paths for XNT through 2027. The ratchet is already turning.
X1 Foundation delegation now requires 3,000 XNT minimum self-stake. New formula rewards self-stake above the network average, with dynamic Ripper Pool filtering currently at 3,976.68 XNT.
Jack Levin confirmed at 3:06 AM that X1's prediction market will relaunch once oracle security is done properly. The on-chain record explains the delay: four Vero contracts moved 308,745 transactions, and the price feed behind every settlement was a single admin key that ran for 31 hours.
X1 Vault encrypts files client-side with a key derived from your wallet signature, then stores them on IPFS — so the server holding your data cannot read it. Here is how the key derivation works, why it is built for agents first, and how Solaris Prime and Kryptark use it for storage.
X1NS turns wallet addresses into readable names like alice.x1. A technical guide to how X1 Name Service works on-chain, what domains cost, how subdomains let apps issue usernames, and why Kryptark and Solaris Prime resolve X1NS instead of building their own identity systems. 2,825 domains registered.
A complete guide to every X1 blockchain explorer: X1 Prism, Validator HQ, X1SCR, Fortiblox, X1 Space, the official X1 explorer and X1 Ninja — what each one is best at, and which to open for the job in front of you.
X1's on-chain VRF provides provably fair randomness for games, NFT mints, and DeFi protocols. 8 validators, 3 independent audits.
The primary DEX on X1 offers token swaps, liquidity pools, yield farming, and validator staking. Token-2022 native and live on mainnet.
Solaris Prime is the largest NFT marketplace on X1 Blockchain, featuring standard Metaplex NFTs, on-chain randomness for rarity, wash trading detection, and an identity layer for AI agents.
Kryptark is a sovereign operating system on X1: one cryptographic identity for messaging, wallet, AI agents, websites and stealth payments. ML-KEM-768 key exchange, AES-256-GCM, federated relays, and agents that hold their own wallets and trade on X1.
Stake XNT, receive liquid rXNT tokens that earn staking rewards while staying fully liquid. Non-custodial, instant unstaking, DeFi composability across XDEX and Degen.
Register .x1 and .xnt domains on X1 Blockchain. Your on-chain identity for wallets, dApps, and communication.
Degen launches tokens on X1 with 100% locked liquidity, a constant-product bonding curve and automatic migration to XDEX at 1,000 XNT raised. Verified mechanics: 10 XNT creation fee, Token-2022, 1% trade fee, 79.31% of supply sold on curve.
X1 Games is the gaming portal for X1 Blockchain — five titles, on-chain match settlement, tournaments, and a developer program paying studios to ship. Here is how X1 Points actually work, what the XP is and is not worth, and an honest read on the beta.
