Chain Protocol has Rebranded to the Onyx Protocol Following CIP-007

In mid-January, Chain initiated (and passed) the Chain Improvement Proposal (CIP-007), which will bring about a series of modifications to the Chain Protocol, including token destruction, lengthening of the timelock, and more. Since CIP-007 successfully passed, the proposal will result in the renaming of the Chain Protocol to the Onyx Protocol, the Chain DAO to the Onyx DAO, and the Chain Token to Onyxcoin, while keeping the same XCN symbol ticker.

Since the Onyx Protocol has successfully passed the CIP-007 proposal, Onyxcoin is now available as the new utility and governance cryptocurrency for XCN. It will continue to power blockchain infrastructure for modern Web3 applications and products, and improvements can be proposed through Onyx Improvement Proposals (OIP). Onyx DAO has received control over 15 billion XCN and will burn 5 billion, making the protocol more decentralized. In 2023, Onyx DAO, and a non-profit organization will launch the Onyx Liquidity Protocol (OLP), a fork of Compound, to enable cross-token type aggregated lending and borrowing. Exchanges and wallets will update the logo and name of XCN token to the new Onyxcoin and Onyx brand. Onyxcoin holders will still be eligible to receive discounts on Chain’s award-winning suite of blockchain infrastructure products and services.
