Worldwide Asset eXchange, also known as WAX, is a purpose-built blockchain designed for faster and simpler e-commerce transactions while ensuring the security of every party involved.

Smart contracts underlying the transactions act as the mechanism that permits trustless trading between buyers and sellers. The WAX blockchain is capable of a 500 millisecond block time and zero-fee events for clients.

WAX has also created a suite of blockchain-based tools upon which decentralized application (DApp) marketplaces and non-fungible tokens can be built. How has WAX fared in recent times?

WAX (WAXP) – Recent Developments

July was a particularly good month for WAX, as it began to record surges in activities on the NFT platform. The WAX blockchain has now reached a daily transaction activity of 18.2 million, more than twice that of Stellar (XLM) which ranks second with 7.67 million.

The WAX blockchain operates with a delegated Proof-of-Stake consensus model and the staking of WAXP tokens earn users an annualized reward rate of 4.42%.

Future Events

The WAX marketplace will welcome some new NFTs before the end of August. WAX has announced that original John Van Hamersveld vIRL #NFTs are coming to the platform. The first set of the NFTs will be released on August 24th.

NFT collections for Outer_Space_Men, the “greatest space toy action figures in the world”, will be featured on the WAX platform from the 19th of August, 2021.
