About the Web3Ledger

A Community-Driven Blockchain Built for the Real World

The Web3Ledger is a shared, global ledger open to everyone. Companies, developers, validators, and users collaborate to make Web3Ledger better every day — with no single point of control.

Unlike most blockchains, Web3Ledger requires no mining and uses negligible energy, making it one of the first truly carbon-neutral blockchains. Transactions reach consensus in 3–5 seconds through a network of 150+ independent validators.

Decentralized — no single institution controls it
Green — carbon-neutral, no proof-of-work mining
Proven — 10+ years of uninterrupted performance
Capabilities

Built for the Future of Finance

From global payments to DeFi and tokenization, the Web3Ledger powers next-generation financial infrastructure.

Cross-Border Payments

Atomically settle multi-hop payments that cross currency or national boundaries with ease. Send money anywhere in the world in seconds, not days.

JavaScript
const client = new Client('wss://web3ledger-node.example');
await client.connect();

const payment = {
  TransactionType: 'Payment',
  Account: wallet.classicAddress,
  Amount: amountToBaseUnits(22),
  Destination: 'r9cZA1mLK5R5Am25ArfXFmqg...'
};

const result = await client
  .submitAndWait(payment, { wallet });

// Settled in ~3 seconds
console.log(result.result.meta.TransactionResult);
// → 'tesSUCCESS'
Protocol Features

Everything Builders Need

Native protocol-level features that eliminate the need for complex, risky smart contracts.

Consensus Protocol

Transactions settle in 3–5 seconds through a federated Byzantine agreement mechanism — no wasted energy, no miners.

Built-in DEX

A native decentralized exchange and AMM baked into the protocol itself — trade any token pair with zero counterparty risk.

Flexible Custody

Multi-signature accounts, escrow, and payment channels give institutions and individuals flexible options for securing on-ledger assets.

Token Issuance

Issue stablecoins, CBDCs, or any custom token. Trust lines enforce compliance requirements at the protocol level.

Payment Channels

Batched micropayments with unlimited speed, secured by protocol consensus. Enable streaming payments and pay-per-use business models.

Escrow

Time-based and cryptographic condition escrow natively in the protocol — no third party required for conditional payments.
