XPR Network & Ecosystem

Last updated
XPR Network is a new public blockchain and smart contract platform designed for both consumer applications and peer-to-peer payments. It is built around a secure identity and financial settlements layer that allows users to directly link their real identity and fiat accounts, pull funds and buy cryptocurrency, and use that cryptocurrency seamlessly in apps and other environments.
XPR Network was created to bridge the gap between traditional finance (TradFi) and DeFi, creating a way for blockchains to interact directly with bank accounts, vendors, merchants, and everywhere in between. Built to be fast and free, XPR Network imagines a world where push transactions minimize the risk for fraud, where currencies move freely between accounts, and where the type of money being used for a purchase is inconsequential.
The XPR Network blockchain can currently handle 4,000 transactions per second (TPS). This is one of the faster-performing blockchains currently available, and allows the different types of transactions possible on Proton to happen simultaneously. From rapid microtransactions, to focused authorizing requests, Proton’s TPS expands its potential use cases.
Transactions for end-users are always free. XPR Network doesn't have miner or gas fees, validators get rewarded in XPR for validating transactions.
XPR Network uses a system of human-readable @names in place of confusing wallet addresses to make everyday use of Proton products easier. An @name is a unique namespace that works across multiple payment providers, identity verifiers, and payment transmitters. Gone are the days of entering your bank password or credit card number online; crypto and fiat wallets alike now interact as one network through the integration of the Proton blockchain.
Beyond being an applications platform with a unified identity model, the new XPR Network blockchain was designed to allow websites and apps to push payment requests directly to XPR Network-compliant wallets. As a result, users can leverage their unique @name when doing any type of transaction, eliminating the need to memorize or carefully copy wallet addresses that are complex and prone to mistakes.
Below we give an overview of Dapps and apps we build on the XPR Network blockchain.
Webauth is the new industry standard for device authentication, identity management, payment processing, and cryptocurrency transactions for Web 3.0, built on the XPR Network. With WebAuth.com, you can approve transactions, make crypto payments, link your decentralized identity, verify/add/remove access for all logins, and reject impersonation attempts through the use of your smartphone – similar to how Google Authenticator and other popular 2FA platforms work, except with a higher bar for security utilizing XSR (XPR Signing Request) over OTP (one-time passwords) that can easily be phished.
Webauth is available on , and .
