What is in the XChainZ platform?
Now, how will XChainZ prepare you for the changing industry needs of the future?
The platform aims to prepare you by providing appropriate training, assessments, and verifiable certifications to cope up with the challenges of the future. The early beta version of the platform includes technologies like the AI algorithm used in computer vision for self-driving cars (Expectation-Maximization via Marginal Maximum Likelihood) for assessments and masternode Blockchain for payments to do so. There are many features of the XChainZ platform that need to be discussed. Let us take a look at some of them.
XChainZ Products
There are various products of the XChainZ platform that assist in the management of training and assessments online.
- XCert
XCert is the flagship product that forms the foundation of the XChainZ platform. It is an educational and workforce network meant for assessments, training, coaching, and the award of verifiable digital credentials.
- XPay
The XPay network deals with digital payments for products and services, in this case, the online assessments, courses, and coaching. This makes the process faster and more convenient as XCZ can be earned on the platform while also being used for payments.
- XPose
This is another product from XChainZ that is an application programming interface. It is used for interacting with XPay and XCert for certifying content on the platform.
Add-on Features of the XChainZ platform
These products help in the successful exchange of information and digital assets at a faster pace. Apart from these, there are other features of the XChainZ platform:
- XCZ token
The XCZ token is the non-native currency of the Stellar network (XLM). The use of the token can be accomplished by students and instructors once logged on the XChainZ platform. Instructors will be rewarded with XCZ for creating courses or assessments, and students will be able to pay for courses, assessments, and coaching in the XCZ token. The token will serve as the one through which smart contracting will take place in the award of course credit and blockchain-based, certificate issuance. Eventually, blockchain-based certifications will be issued using an embedded application on XCZ, Blockcerts, an MIT, open-source software project.
- Stellar Blockchain Network
This is a non-native Blockchain network of XChainZ where XCZ members can convert XCZ used for staking and masternodes into XCZ tokens, the 1:1 representation of XCZ on Stellar. All the essential information like certificates for training completion, coaching, assessment credentials and payments for services will be registered on the Stellar Blockchain Network. The Stellar network in its partnership with IBM has commercial banks on-board that allow XChainZ to trade directly into other digital currencies using Stellar DEX.
