The legal process around the launch of @xeinternet is extremely complex. Defining what constitutes fully decentralised in law, the interplay of agentic systems with human-gated legal systems, and how to handle updates when there’s no central authority... all of it needs careful work.
Many updates to come, starting with tokenomics, slightly delayed as we wrap up.
| XE Tokenomics 101 is going live in the next 24 hours.
> But first, founder @JosephDenne on why the choice was XE, and not just carrying on with Edge.
XE gives every account its own chain. It’s a protocol any cloud and machine fleet can run on, Edge included.
We could have tested XE behind closed doors, but we opened it to everyone instead.
3 weeks later, on the XE Testnet:
> 31,200+ accounts
> 719,000+ blocks
> 103 patches shipped
> 30 people on the bounty leaderboard

How long does an agent wait for a GPU?
> As long as it takes a person to approve its ticket.
AWS, Google Cloud, even behind an MCP: someone always has to say yes.
Our founder @JosephDenne on what changes when machines don’t have to ask.

Zombie processes. Orphan blocks. Dead peers. A daemon in every node.
Nothing haunts for long in a public log.

One cloud provider. 1,000+ Solana validators offline overnight. Around 1/5 of the stake went with them.
XE is decentralized on both the network, and the compute layer. Its nodes and its compute run on machines owned by many.
Why XE is built differently, explained by XE founder.
| A billion machines paying each other at once.
On a blockchain: a billion payments, one line.
> On XE: a billion chains, nobody in line.
XE isn't a faster blockchain. It was built from the ground up for machines.
@JosephDenne explains it with a simple analogy.
In the first week of the XE testnet, you showed up:
| 11,070 accounts,
| 78,860 blocks.
Then you went looking for cracks:
| 90+ bug bounty submissions.
Every one makes mainnet stronger. Find the next one.
