Introducing, #X1 Vault — the storage layer for AI agents on X1.
Your X1 wallet derives the encryption key. No accounts, no passwords, no server trust. Ed25519 signature → SHA-256 → AES-256-GCM. One wallet, one key, any device.
Why it matters for AI on blockchain:
Autonomous agents need persistent memory that survives across sessions, machines, and restarts. X1 Vault gives every agent its own encrypted namespace on IPFS — keyed to its wallet, invisible to everyone else.
Smart dedup solves encrypted storage's hardest problem: same plaintext + different IVs = different ciphertext = IPFS can't dedup. X1 Vault's plaintext MD5 protocol catches duplicates before encryption — ~50% storage savings in production.
What this enables:
→ AI agents with durable, portable memory (700+ files, hourly backups, 95% cache hits — running live on X1 today)
→ On-chain CID references to off-chain encrypted data
→ Multi-agent isolation — Agent A can't read Agent B's memory, same IPFS node
→ Validator logs, state proofs, DID docs — all wallet-encrypted
X1 isn't just a blockchain that supports AI. It's a blockchain built so AI can actually live there.
Open source. Free. Live now.

Validators: The Heartbeat of X1 and the FIRST DeFi Protocol That's Revolutionizing Blockchain! Available to EVERYONE, not Just Geeeks ;) 🚀
Validation on X1 is the first yield-bearing activity, aligning incentives RIGHT at the network's core. This is about democratized block production, zero-cost votes (unlike Solana's model), and rewards that stack like crazy for early adopters.
X1's vision? Let EVERYONE easily participate at the heart of the blockchain, not just the edges. And that thanks to easy validator deployment.
Mainnet launched just days ago on Oct 6, 2025, and the validator set is exploding! 625 validators and counting! Look here https://t.co/xAZ7OiSwf4. If you're into crypto yields, security, or building the future – jump in. Let's break down ALL the rewards and incentives for validators. I'll keep it real, exciting, and packed with examples so you can see the potential. I myself run multiple validators and you can too. Buckle up!
1. Voting Rewards from Inflation: Your Base Yield Engine
This is the foundation – X1 mints new XNT tokens via inflation to reward validators for voting on blocks. You accumulate credits per epoch based on your uptime and participation, then snag a slice of the inflation pie proportional to your credits and stake (self + delegated).
How it works: Inflation starts at a juicy 8% APY, dropping 15% annually toward a sustainable 1.5% long-term. It's adjusted by your effective stake in the network.
Why it's exciting: Pure passive income for securing the chain! No need for massive hardware – just keep your node humming.
Example:
Start small? Say you bootstrap a validator with just 2 XNT self-stake. At 8% APY, you're earning ~0.16 XNT/year in voting rewards. But here's the magic: X1's Stake Pool Delegation Program auto-delegates from the foundation to kickstart you. Boom – your effective stake jumps (e.g., to 10k+ XNT delegated), boosting your APY on that tiny self-stake. Suddenly, you're pulling in 80 XNT in rewards like a pro. That's 42x!
Scale it? With 1000 XNT self-stake, you're looking at ~240 XNT/year base, plus whatever delegations pile on. It's compounding decentralization!
2. Commission from Delegators: Turn Your Node into a Yield Farm
X1 is dPoS, so XNT holders delegate to you without running nodes. This supercharges your voting power and leader odds, while you skim a commission off the inflation rewards earned on their stake.
How it works: Set your commission (max 10% for bonus eligibility). You deduct it from gross rewards; delegators get the rest pro-rata. Attract delegations by being performant and low-commission. Why it's exciting: It's like running your own staking pool! More delegations = more power = more rewards across the board. And with X1's low barriers, anyone can delegate to you.
Example:
Imagine your validator has 1000 XNT self-stake and pulls in 600k XNT delegations (common for solid nodes). At 8% APY and 10% commission: Gross rewards 48k XNT/year. You pocket ~4.8k XNT in commission, plus your pro-rata share (72 XNT) from the net – totaling ~4.9k XNT/year!
3. Block Rewards from Production: The High-Octane Lottery Win
Not just voting – you can be selected as the "leader" to produce blocks and pocket ALL transaction fees in them. Selection? Stake-weighted but boosted by performance and randomness for fairness. How it works: High uptime = better odds. Produce a block, get it confirmed by >67% validators (stake/performance-weighted), and claim fees.
Why it's exciting: Variable but HUGE upside! As X1 grows (DeFi, apps, users), tx fees explode. Perform well, and you're printing money from real network activity.
Example:
With your 2 XNT starter node + foundation delegations, you're in the mix for leader slots. Land one block with, say, 10 XNT in fees? Half of that is yours! Upgrade to 1000 XNT self-stake + big delegations? Your odds skyrocket – potentially snagging multiple blocks/day, raking in 100s of XNT/month as adoption ramps.
4. Bootstrap Bonus: The Turbo Boost for Early Birds
This is X1's secret sauce – extra rewards for early, performant, decentralized validators. It's v1 now, perhaps there will be ealsoo v2, but it's LIVE from Novemeber and it means stacking on everything else.
How it works: Base rewards are proportional to credits; +16% bonus if you hit criteria (self-stake 1k-10k XNT, ≤10% commission, ≥97% vote credits, low skip rate, latest Tachyon version). Self-stake only for bonus – delegated doesn't count. Max 10 nodes per entity for decentralization.
Why it's exciting: Accelerates growth and rewards commitment! It's dynamic – foundation tweaks for fairness.
Example:
Bare minimum? Stake 1000 XNT self – qualify for full +16% on that. At base 8% APY, that's ~80 XNT/year voting + bonus uplift to ~240 XNT/year, PLUS all other block rewards. Got 10k XNT? Max bonus cap – earn on the full amount with +16% turbo. But smart play: Split across 5 nodes (2000 XNT each) with your 10k total. Each qualifies (min 1k), maximizing decentralization and rewards without waste. Compare to your 2 XNT starter: No bonus yet, but grind to 1k self-stake, and BAM – unlock that +16% layer. It's designed to level up fast!
5. Bonus: Testnet Legacy Rewards
If you crushed the incentivized testnet, you're vesting XNT now (90% over 365 days, proportional to mainnet uptime). 10% claimed at genesis to stake immediately.
Example:
1B credits = 20k XNT total (2k immediate, 18k vesting). If you stay online full year you unlock it all. It's the cherry on top for OGs!
X1 validators aren't just earners – you're the guardians making this chain unbreakable. Low costs (hardware only, zero vote fees), high yields, and true decentralization.
Start tiny, attract delegations, qualify for bonuses, and scale to beast mode. The network's young – rewards are FAT right now. Join the validator revolution!

Who is ready for #XDEX Terminal? What is it:
Developed by yours, truly. (Mr. Jack).
Implements Meteora Style Alpha Vault strategies.
Runs concentrated dynamic AMM (DLMM)
DLMM = Dynamic Liquidity Market Maker (Meteora, Kamino, etc.).
Short version: it’s like a programmable CLMM that lets LPs define how and where their liquidity behaves, instead of being stuck with a static curve.
Custom curves instead of one-size-fits-all
x·y=k (Uniswap v2 / Raydium v1): single, fixed constant-product curve.
CLMM (Uniswap v3): still uses x·y=k locally, just concentrated in a price range.
DLMM: LP can pick a curve profile:
More linear around mid-price (less slippage near peg).
Steeper outside band (protects LPs on big moves).
Can emulate stable-swap, volatile, or custom shapes.
Result: better trade execution for users and better capital efficiency for LPs at the same TVL.
What will it be used for:
For initial release of $XNT liquidity for #X1 users. We want to make sure bonding curves can accommodate various trading conditions often present in newly launched tokens.
How do you use it? You will need to bridge $USDC into $USDC.X from Solana using our native atomic bridge (Wormhole fork). Once you got $USDC.X in your swap, continue to #XDEX Terminal and start swapping it for $XNT. Alternatively, if you are $XNT seller, you can sell it for $$USDC.X which you can bridge back to Solana for USDC.

It takes time for popular wallets integrate X1. Thankfully, Backpack is open source, so we forked it to work well with X1 Blockchain. Give it a try (note it supports ledger).
After X1 mainnet launch, I figured having better diversified oracle feed than Pyth, is probably a good idea: X1 Oracle system was born.
Next, it was time to test the Oracle, the natural choice was prediction markets, Vero Markets were born.
Vero Markets needed a better wallet integration, so Backpack was forked.
Validators were asking for more XNT to stake, so X1 Solana bridge was developed.
30 days into Mainnet, 1 million lines of code later, all system Go!
🚀 https://t.co/CAZxTlRhao: Permanent Data Storage on #X1 & @Solana is launching soon!
Sneak peek of what’s coming:

Did you know...
You can search the https://t.co/USq6Qh8Kxu dashboard for validators by name, identity or vote address. Clicking on a validators name opens an individual validator page with full blown metrics for Stake, Credits, Rewards. #X1#X1galaxy 👀
https://t.co/HNcPzT4fGO
Full breakdown of @ackebom’s awesome new #X1 video. Just hit the YouTube links to jump straight to the part you want to dive into 🎥👇
1/ X1 MAINNET ROLLOUT
https://t.co/jjtUAIeATX
X1 mainnet is going live in phases. Goal: unstoppable, censorship-resistant infrastructure. Transact with minimal limits!
2/ WHAT IS X1?
https://t.co/dG6KvAWxwa
X1 = high-throughput, monolithic, general-purpose L1.
Built on the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM), forked from Solana, fully Rust/SVM compatible. Most Solana dApps can just point RPC at X1 (01:00 / 60s).
3/ VALIDATOR PHILOSOPHY
https://t.co/stCs0vyzCq
Consensus = Proof of Stake.
Validators don’t need huge stake and don’t pay for consensus votes (01:23 / 83s). The barrier to running a validator is intentionally low.
4/ ANTI-COLLUSION DESIGN
https://t.co/PMEOQ8uH8k
Leader eligibility = stake + performance + randomness. This is meant to fight PoS centralization and keep censorship resistance strong.
5/ VALIDATOR REQUIREMENTS
https://t.co/N0ucuv2Rg8
Hardware: 24 threads CPU, 128GB RAM, 4TB NVMe. Cost: ~$5–$7/day. Parallelized execution w/ initial 4 threads for QoS with target slot time: 400ms.
6/ TOKEN + FEES
https://t.co/BwyukQ8RYe
Native token: $XNT. Initial supply: 1B.
Fees: EIP-1559-style dynamic base fee + priority fees that use local fee markets.
7/ INFLATION VS BURN
https://t.co/a99qAuHacE
Inflation schedule comes from Solana (starts ~8%, decays toward ~1.5% long term). BUT: 50% of both base fees + priority fees gets burned. Claimed ~100x stronger deflationary pressure than Solana.
8/ PHASE 1 ROLLOUT = DECENTRALIZED DAY 1
https://t.co/YtH1oJLcpX
Phase 1 began Oct 6.
~500 validators joined in the first 24h. Near 800 validators by the time of recording.
Validators span 40+ countries (06:17 / 377s). This isn’t “we’ll decentralize later,” it’s immediate.
9/ NETWORK HEALTH
https://t.co/dSHOW98FLg
Avg slot times <400ms. Mainnet is live and producing blocks. $XNT is NOT tradable yet (07:58 / 478s).
Launch is intentionally phased (08:04 / 484s): earn trust, harden infra before full unlocks.
10/ EXPLORERS + TPS CONTEXT
https://t.co/7a9fPnPIzU
Official explorer: https://t.co/2bWn09I4ot.
There are also community dashboards like https://t.co/vHbnRwNyyK (12:23 / 743s).
Reminder: the huge TPS you see right now is mostly validator vote traffic, not end-user txs (11:23 / 683s).
11/ NETWORK LAYER DECENTRALIZATION
https://t.co/QTMyUsETcH
Big risk in PoS networks: everyone rents the same servers from the same host. X1 is tracking provider concentration (ex: Interserver) + planning incentives/mitigations to push validator diversity at the infra layer.
12/ VALIDATOR ECONOMICS
https://t.co/Gn8bmQf6dW
Validator cost = basically just the server.
Revenue comes from:
• Voting rewards from inflation (18:02 / 1082s)
• Commission on delegated stake (18:08 / 1088s)
• Block rewards. Thanks to anti-collusion, block rewards aren’t monopolized by whales (18:46 / 1126s)
13/ INCENTIVES ROUND 1
https://t.co/XZ2DsSfFyu
Incentivized Testnet: participation gets rewarded.
Rate: 50,000 credits = 1 $XNT.
14/ BOOTSTRAP BONUS
https://t.co/1OZIQWO7qP
To accelerate validator growth early:
+16% APY boost on top of ~8% base inflation for eligible validators.
15/ VALIDATION = DEFI
https://t.co/dMowCeEXIq
They pitch validation itself as “the first DeFi protocol” on X1. Idea: staking/validating isn’t just infrastructure work, it’s yield aligned with decentralization and security.
16/ DELEGATION PROGRAM
https://t.co/NuZCwXPAf2
The X1 Foundation auto-delegates treasury stake, no KYC, no manual app. Split: 30% equally across validators + 70% as a 1:1 match of self-stake (25:16 / 1516s). Goal: reward competent operators, not insiders.
17/ ECOSYSTEM: XDEX
https://t.co/PZC5N9efsE
#X1 acquired #XDEX, a fork of Radium AMM. Why? Native DEX layer, better UX around priority fees / MEV (27:01 / 1621s). Wallets/DEXs today often make it hard to avoid getting sandwiched.
18/ MORE ECOSYSTEM
https://t.co/n0MjFXi26I
Upcoming pieces:
• DJM, a creator launchpad (28:44)
• Full wallet, lending, vaults, perps (29:04 / 1744s)
Basically: We're not waiting for “someone else to build it.”
19/ SOLANA ↔ X1 BRIDGE
https://t.co/aRHg8HwbZr
X1 Cross-Chain Swap Bridge links Solana ↔ X1.
Deposit $USDC on Solana, receive $XNT on #X1 via verified swap (30:17 / 1817s). Not synthetic IOUs, real asset movement.
20/ ORACLES BUILT-IN
https://t.co/c7ywWMlDoR
X1 is streaming Pyth market data on-chain every ~0.5s. Oracle data lands directly in each block. Goal: make DeFi apps fast and simple to build.
21/ PREDICTION MARKETS
https://t.co/1ZHlVBWG78
Live demo: prediction markets using LMSR (34:44 / 2084s). You trade on outcomes (information) instead of chasing meme coins. This works even when a new chain has low liquidity.
22/ CLOSING
https://t.co/eapmgAltdz
Shout-out to validators, builders, and community.
X1 Mainnet is live, phased, and pushing for max censorship resistance and broad validator access from day zero.
