## ABOUT XION

XION’s L1 abstracts away all crypto complexities for users to enable mass adoption.

XION enshrines opinionated UX decisions at the protocol level, including abstracted meta accounts, signature flexibility, and a parameterized fee system, to improve interoperability and user accessibility in blockchain networks.

Raised over $36M from Animoca, Circle Ventures, Multicoin, Valor, Hashkey, Spartan, Mechanism, Figment Capital, Coinlist Seed, Injective, Alliance DAO, Sandeep Nailwal (Polygon), and more.

## About XION

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: XION is a Layer 1 blockchain that rebuilds trust between people, brands, and platforms through zero-knowledge verification infrastructure built atop a complete abstraction layer, purpose-built for mainstream adoption.
- **Entity Type**: Private (funding stage: Series A, with $36M+ total funding)
- **Headquarters**: New York, United States
- **Founded**: 2021
- **Founders**: Anthony Anzalone (CEO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry/industries**: Blockchain infrastructure, Web3, cryptocurrency, zero-knowledge cryptography
- **Target customers**: Developers building Web3 applications, enterprise brands (B2B), and end-users (B2C) who need trust verification
- **Mission or purpose statement**: XION exists to solve the internet's trust crisis by making verification the core primitive of a new Layer 1 blockchain, while removing all blockchain and crypto complexities for end users.

## Products & Services
- **XION Layer 1 Blockchain**: The core protocol—a Cosmos SDK-based L1 with CometBFT consensus and CosmWasm smart contracts. It integrates two primary layers:
  - **Verification Layer (The Truth Engine)**: Applies zero-knowledge proofs to three data sources: zkTLS (verifies real-world data from any website), DKIM Module/zkEmail (verifies email contents using DKIM signatures), and App Attestations (verifies mobile app data).
  - **Abstraction Layer**: Embeds account, signature, gas, payment, device, and interoperability abstraction directly into the protocol, enabling users to log in with email, pay with credit cards, and never encounter blockchain complexity.
- **Enterprise Verification Services**: Revenue-generating services for brands to verify user data privately.
- **Ecosystem Applications**: A marketplace of applications built on XION, with revenue sharing for developers.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Total Funding: $36M–$38.5M (conflicting reports: LinkedIn states $38.5M, Greenhouse says $36M)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Multicoin Capital, Circle Ventures, Animoca Brands, Valor Capital, Alliance DAO, Alameda Research (led seed round)
- **Growth Signals**: 150+ global brands including Uber, Amazon, BMW, LEGO, Temu, North Face, Travelex; 68M+ verified interactions; 5M+ users; $35M+ ARR from ecosystem applications; headcount grew 64.3% YoY to 18 employees; community of 1M+ followers across socials

## Competitive Advantages
- **Only L1 with integrated verification infrastructure**: zkTLS, zkEmail, and App Attestations are built directly into the protocol, not as application-layer workarounds.
- **Only L1 with protocol-level abstraction**: Account, gas, signature, payment, and device abstraction are part of the chain itself, making blockchain invisible to end users.
- **Real-world traction**: Already generating $35M+ ARR from enterprise verification services and application revenue, not speculation.
- **Revenue model**: Revenue from enterprise services, application revenue sharing, marketplace fees, and stablecoin activity flows back to the protocol through buybacks.

## Strategic Focus
- **Mass adoption**: Removing all blockchain and crypto complexities to create user-friendly applications solving real-world use-cases.
- **Developer ecosystem**: Building a developer community through tools, documentation (docs.burnt.com), and revenue-sharing incentives.
- **Global expansion**: Hiring for APAC (Developer Relations Engineer), NYC, and Europe (Head of Design, Ecosystem Growth).
- **Brand partnerships**: Expanding relationships with major global brands.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Fast-growing tech scale-up with a mission-driven focus on solving the internet's trust crisis. Described as a "startup" environment that values innovation and impact.
- **Remote/hybrid policy**: Remote-first with offices in New York (HQ) and Berlin; some roles are fully remote, others are NYC/Europe-based with remote or hybrid options.
- **Notable perks/engineering culture**: Work on cutting-edge blockchain infrastructure (Cosmos SDK, CosmWasm, zero-knowledge proofs); opportunities to shape a protocol that is already used by major brands; CEO has been featured on NYSE and NASDAQ; 28 total employees with 64.3% YoY headcount growth signals strong scaling momentum.
- **Team composition**: 26% technical staff, with roles for Senior Protocol Engineer, Front End ("High-Functioning Psychopath"), Developer Relations Engineer, Head of Design, Ecosystem Growth, and Marketing Project Manager.
