About X1 Report

What X1 Report is

X1 Report is an independent publication covering X1 Blockchain — the monolithic Layer 1 built on the Solana Virtual Machine whose native token is XNT. We publish network news, ecosystem project coverage, technical explainers and live on-chain data.

The site exists because X1 is under-covered and frequently mis-covered. A large amount of the third-party material about X1 describes an abandoned EVM design that never reached mainnet, and much of the rest is recycled marketing copy. Our purpose is to describe the network that actually exists, with numbers read from the chain rather than from a press release.

Editorial standards

These are the rules we hold ourselves to. They are specific on purpose, so that they can be checked against what we publish.

• On-chain data is read from the chain. Price, supply, staking and validator figures come from X1 mainnet RPC and on-chain sources, queried at page load. We do not republish aggregator numbers as though they were primary.
• We never fabricate a figure. When a live data source is unavailable, we serve the last known good value with its timestamp, or we omit the number and say so. A missing measurement is never replaced by an estimate presented as a measurement.
• Claims are attributed and linked. Statements sourced from a project, a founder or a third party are attributed as such, with a link to the original where one exists. We distinguish between what a project says about itself and what is independently verifiable on-chain.
• Marketing language is not repeated as fact. Project descriptions are rewritten in plain terms. Where a claim cannot be verified, we say it is a claim.
• Risks are stated alongside benefits. Coverage of a protocol includes its failure modes. We would rather lose a reader to caution than gain one to omission.
• Dated snapshots stay dated. Price and network figures in news articles reflect the publication date. We do not silently update old numbers to make past coverage look prescient.
• Speculation is labelled. Scenario analysis and forward-looking pieces are identified as such and separated from reporting.

How we source data

Specific figures on this site come from specific places, and we would rather show the plumbing than ask for trust:

• Network and validator data — X1 mainnet RPC at https://rpc.mainnet.x1.xyz, using standard SVM JSON-RPC methods including getVoteAccounts and getBlockProduction. Anyone can reproduce these calls.
• XNT price and liquidity — read from the XNT/USDC.X pool on-chain, not from a centralised exchange feed. XNT is not listed on major centralised exchanges, so any figure claiming to be a CEX price warrants suspicion.
• Supply and staking — on-chain stake accounts, broken down by holder category so that treasury and delegation-program stake is distinguishable from community-held stake.
• Block and transaction data — explorer.x1.xyz and direct RPC queries.

Corrections policy

We get things wrong. When we do, the correction is visible rather than quiet.

• Factual errors are corrected promptly once identified and verified.
• Substantive corrections are marked in the article — an explicit note stating what was wrong and what changed. We do not edit a claim out of existence and leave the article looking as though it always said the right thing.
• Typographical and formatting fixes are made without annotation.
• Dated figures are not retroactively rewritten. Where an old article contains a number that was correct at publication, it stays, with context added if it is misleading today.

To report an error, use the contact page. Corrections raised with evidence are acted on quickly.

Independence and disclosures

Readers are entitled to know what our interests are.

• X1 Report is not affiliated with X1 Labs, the X1 Foundation or the Fair Crypto Foundation. It is not funded or editorially controlled by any project it covers, and no project has review rights over coverage before publication.
• We are participants in the ecosystem we cover. X1 Report is operated by an X1 node operator and protocol developer. That is a genuine conflict of interest and we prefer to state it plainly rather than imply a detachment we do not have. It also means the technical coverage comes from running the software rather than reading about it.
• We hold XNT. Anyone operating on X1 necessarily does. Assume a long position when reading anything here about XNT, and weight it accordingly.
• No paid coverage. We do not accept payment for articles, reviews or placement in our ecosystem directory. Projects are covered on merit and inclusion is never sold.
• External links are not endorsements. Our verified links directory confirms that an address or domain is the official one for a project. It makes no claim about whether that project is a good idea.

Not financial advice

Nothing on X1 Report is investment, financial, legal or tax advice, and none of it is a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any asset.

Cryptocurrency carries substantial risk, including total loss of capital. Smart contracts fail. Tokens go to zero. Liquidity disappears at exactly the moment it is needed. Small-float assets are volatile and thinly traded, and XNT is a small-float asset. Verify every contract address independently — against a project's own published channels and our verified directory — before transacting, and never on the basis of a search result or a name that looks plausible.
