What is the WAX blockchain?

WAX is The Everything Chain, a leading layer-1 blockchain redefining digital commerce across games, collectibles, tokens, meme coins, and more. With eco-friendly technology, feeless transactions, and massive scalability, WAX is the ultimate hub for web3 innovation.

Founded in 2017 by William E. Quigley and Jonathan Yantis, WAX has powered hundreds of millions of transactions while collaborating with iconic brands like NASCAR, AMC, Mattel, and Hasbro. WAX also pioneered vIRLs®, NFTs connecting digital assets to physical products, unlocking new opportunities for creators and businesses.

The WAX Bridge provides seamless multi-chain connectivity, allowing NFTs and tokens to flow between blockchains. With the WAX Cloud Wallet, the easiest-to-use wallet for web3, WAX ensures smooth user onboarding.

Beyond gaming and collectibles, WAX is home to a thriving meme coin ecosystem, where tokens foster engaged communities and playful creativity. Whether building a game economy or launching the next viral trend, WAX provides the tools and infrastructure to succeed.

WAX’s robust ecosystem supports web3 games like Alien Worlds and Splinterlands, with tools for creators, developers, and entrepreneurs. Built on a delegated proof-of-stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism, WAX delivers lightning-fast transactions and scalability to meet the growing demands of web3.

The WAX community, driven by innovators like bountyblok, NFTHive, and AtomicHub, has made creating, trading, and engaging with digital assets easier than ever.
