Wanchain is a public blockchain with support for the development of smart contracts using Solidity. Wanchain supports ring signature based private transactions and decentralized cross chain functionality.Wanchain has been building its cross-chain infrastructure since 2017. In early 2021, it launched the world’s 1st decentralized BTC-ETH direct bridge. Wanchain also offers decentralized bridges connecting Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple and EOS, and more. All of Wanchain’s different cross-chain bridges are supported by unified decentralized collateral pools.
Wanchain features two types of validator nodes: PoS validator nodes and Storeman validator nodes. PoS validator nodes use a Proof-of-Stake to achieve decentralised consensus. Storeman validator nodes perform and verify cross-chain transactions.
