XDC Network flips Polkadot for stablecoin supply. At time of writing, on August 28, @XDCNetwork's stablecoin supply stands at $69.95M per DefiLlama, up +9% on the week. This movement has seen $XDC become a larger stablecoin ecosystem than major L1 @Polkadot $DOT, the stablecoin supply for which sits at $67.95M, down -1.1% on the week. Can $XDC hold its new position?

XDC subnets keep enterprise transactions private while anchoring to the public chain Enterprises that need private ledgers cannot post transactions to a public chain. @XDCNetwork's answer is the subnet, a permissioned chain the customer wholly owns, running the same consensus engine as mainnet. A relayer, a small program bridging the two, periodically checkpoints the subnet's consensus data to a smart contract on xdce-crowd-sale:native mainnet, which verifies and records each snapshot. Only block headers cross over, the compact summaries identifying each block rather than its contents. The transactions themselves never appear on the public chain, per XDC's documentation. Those recorded checkpoints mean subnet history cannot be quietly rewritten without the mismatch showing on mainnet.

Xdinary Heroes' Gunil has left the band following allegations of frequently insulting fans: "We are deeply aware of the seriousness of the situation regarding the recent matter involving Gunil, and had extensive discussions with the artist” (...) "As a result, we determined that it would be difficult for him to continue team activities and mutually agreed to terminate his exclusive contract. We would like to inform the public that Gunil will leave Xdinary Heroes as of today and conclude his activities with the band."
