In May, XCN became available on BNB Chain, the blockchain network of Binance, the largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume. Via BNB Chain, this crypto asset can be listed on the Huobi, Gate.io, and KuCoin crypto exchanges platforms.
Chain’s announcement that the platform had burned $2,6 billion worth of XCN may also have influenced the rate hike. This represents more than 22% of the issue, according to the new governance system.
What is known about the project? Chain is a blockchain that enables businesses to create their own decentralized applications from scratch. The project was created in 2014. The blockchain has its own governance token Chain Token (XCN). XCN holders can vote for protocol upgrades, as well as earn rewards.
