MEXCBreaking: XRPL Labs Announces XRP Smart Contract Sidechain Xahau

XRPL Labs founder Wietse Wind also took to X to announce publishing the Xahau whitepaper with GateHub, Alloy Networks, EvernodeXRPL, and others. He revealed that the XRP Ledger-powered smart contracts functionality will allow building things with everyday life utility.
“We will continue to build for the entire XRP Ledger ecosystem, and everything we build will be open for the entire ecosystem to benefit from. We believe a multi-chain XRP Ledger Protocol ecosystem can bring both the proven resilience of XRPL Mainnet & the endless new possibilities of Hooks.”
