Bee nodes generate a lot of transactions. To make this efficient and scalable, #ethswarm has opted for xDAI as a sidechain. When a Bee running on the mainnet deploys a chequebook, this happens on xDAI. When node operators cash out cheques, they get xBZZ. bit.ly/3qzsbrB

With the launch of its mainnet, #ethswarm has reached an important milestone in its existence. The #Ethereum mainnet, however, is very expensive for the sort of transactions Swarm Bee generates, so Swarm has opted to use #xDAI as a scaling solution. bit.ly/3qzsbrB

Community Update on Recent Delistings & Next Steps
Swarm has always been about building, not hype. Our focus has remained on creating a robust, decentralized ecosystem that empowers users with self-sovereign hosting and communication.
On Thursday, March 13th, a process to delist BZZ from OKX was initiated. This decision reflects broader trends in the centralised exchanges landscape, where increasing regulatory pressures and volume requirements are leading platforms to prioritize high-turnover assets.
Our commitment to decentralisation has never been stronger. Instead of relying on centralised exchanges, we are shifting our focus to strengthening DEX liquidity. To achieve this, we are working on a structured incentive plan to support liquidity providers and ensure that Swarm remains accessible to those who believe in our long-term vision.
We appreciate the community's continued support and will keep you informed. The road to true decentralisation is not always smooth, but together, we will continue building a digital future that is open, private and permissionless.
