What is the Gnosis Chain API
The Gnosis Chain, formerly known as xDai Chain, is a sidechain that aims to address the scaling challenges of the Ethereum blockchain. It is an EVM-based blockchain network that uses the xDAI stablecoin for transactions, which maintains a 1:1 value ratio with the DAI stablecoin. Gnosis Chain leverages faster block and epoch times for efficient transaction processing, minimizing network congestion.
Gnosis Chain provides a stable, lean, and high-performance network with cross-chain bridges for smooth interactions. It is designed for Web3 builders looking to develop scalable solutions and offers a familiar developer experience for those accustomed to Ethereum. Its EVM compatibility and cross-chain connections make it an ideal environment for building various applications.
