Introducing the Balance Adjustment xApp: Unlocking the Possibilities of Xahau

February 7, 2024
In our commitment to making the Xahau ecosystem accessible to our users, we’re happy to announce our latest xApp: the Balance Adjustment xApp, making Xahau Balance Claims accessible. This new addition to our collection of xApps is designed to help you access a Monthly Balance Adjustment feature native to the Xahau network on its mainnet and testnet.

Understanding the Balance Adjustment xApp

The Balance Adjustment xApp grants users access to a core feature of the Xahau network. By utilizing this xApp, Xaman users can seamlessly participate in the Xahau network and claim balance adjustments.

This integration taps into the functionality of the Xahau native asset, XAH, which puts back into circulation some of the XAH burned from transaction fees, allowing each active user to claim an increase in their account balance.

How the Balance Adjustment xApp Works:

  • Opt-In Mechanism: Users must opt-in to participate. This is a simple yet crucial step to start benefiting from the Balance Adjustment feature.
  • Claiming Balance Adjustment: On the Xahau mainnet, you can claim your balance adjustment every ~30 days (2600000 seconds to be exact). The testnet offers a faster cycle for testing purposes with a period of just 100 seconds.
  • Opting-Out and History Tracking: If you decide not to participate or wish to stop, potentially due to possible tax implications applicable in your jurisdiction, opting-out is straightforward. Additionally, a history page is available to track previously claimed balance adjustments.
  • Flexibility and Control: With the ability to opt-in, claim, and opt-out at your discretion, you have complete control over your engagement with this feature.
