Meet Elixxir

Elixxir is a transaction platform running on a full-stack blockchain. Elixxir nodes are the foundation for a privacy-protecting mix network with security that can support messaging, payments, and decentralized application (dApp) data transfer.

Speed

Payments & messaging
in under 10 seconds

Privacy

Unprecedented transaction
metadata unlinkability

Security

Near zero catastrophic risk!

Scale

Consumer scale transaction
volumes (>100,000 TPS)

The Elixxir payment and messaging
AlphaNet is already up and running!

The Elixxir
Difference

Two fundamental innovations have enabled Elixxir's ability to scale performance and privacy securely:

Nodes are selected to work together by a decentralized randomized algorithm. This creates increased privacy and network integrity.
All per-transaction public key operations are pre-computed; only “hash functions” are used in real-time per-transaction.

Join the
Elixxir Revolution

We believe this is our main chance to take blockchain mainstream. Participate now by joining our community, running a node, or developing a dApp on Elixxir.
