ORIGIN EX announced that its testnet, ORIGIN X Chain, will soon be launched, building an independent blockchain ecosystem.
ORIGIN EX officially announced the upcoming launch of its self-developed blockchain network, ORIGIN X Chain testnet. This strategic move marks a significant transformation for the platform, shifting it from a digital asset trading service provider to a builder of underlying infrastructure. It aims to create a high-performance, highly interoperable autonomous blockchain ecosystem, providing more secure, efficient, and transparent underlying support for the entire ORIGIN EX digital asset ecosystem.

The construction of ORIGIN X Chain fully leverages the platform’s core team’s deep technical expertise and industry insights. The testnet will showcase its core advantages in transaction processing speed, cross-chain interoperability, and smart contract functionality. This network employs an innovative consensus mechanism and sharding technology, aiming to achieve transaction throughput far exceeding traditional blockchain networks, laying the foundation for future large-scale commercial applications. Simultaneously, its built-in cross-chain communication protocol will seamlessly connect to other mainstream public chains, enabling the free flow of assets and data across different blockchain networks, thereby breaking down ecosystem silos and providing users with a unified asset management and trading experience.
The launch of the testnet marks a crucial first step for the ORIGIN X Chain project, moving it from theory to practice. Open to the developer community, node operators, and early adopters, it aims to comprehensively test network performance, security, and stability through real-world operation. Community participants will be able to directly engage in the early development of the network by running testnet nodes, deploying smart contracts, and contributing to governance proposals. This open and collaborative process not only helps gather valuable technical feedback to optimize the mainnet design but also forms a vital cornerstone for building a thriving ecosystem community.
From a long-term perspective, the launch of ORIGIN X Chain is a core component of ORIGIN EX’s commitment to a “global vision” and “connecting innovation.” It is not merely an upgrade to the technological infrastructure, but also a crucial vehicle for the evolution of the platform’s future business model. A robust and autonomous underlying blockchain network will provide the platform with limitless possibilities for exploring innovative businesses such as decentralized finance, asset tokenization, NFT trading, and collateralized lending, ultimately propelling it towards a comprehensive digital financial ecosystem integrating trading, investment, and incubation.
