For episode 619 of the BlockHash Podcast, host Brandon Zemp is joined by Markus Levin, Co-Founder of XYO.

After 7+ years on Ethereum, XYO, the first DePIN project established in 2018 and predating the term, is officially launching XYO Layer One, its own L1 blockchain. Designed for DePIN, RWA, AI and other data-heavy industries, this new dual-token blockchain solves the issues holding back blockchain development today. XYO reported a revenue of $8.8M in 2024, and has attracted 80% of its users from outside the crypto space. 

The decision to migrate from the Ethereum L2 ecosystem was driven by XYO’s own demand for a high-efficiency blockchain after over 7 years of building data-heavy blockchain products for millions of users around the world. The new XYO Layer One blockchain will process large volumes of real-time data with low latency and provide proprietary data validation capabilities for projects that demand performance. XYO will first migrate its own products to the new XYO Layer One blockchain, and be followed by key partners
