Additionally, XDC Network was selected as the first blockchain ecosystem member of the Trade Finance Distribution Initiative (TFDi). In 2022, XDC Network was approved by Panama as one of only a few blockchains that can be used for private transactions and paying taxes. The XDC Community also created the XDC Network Improvement Proposal (XIP) process, which is focused on decentralizing decision making around the core protocol. The XDC Network also saw a 525% growth in smart contract deployment, signifying continued growth in developer engagement on the network. In addition, the XDC Network launched the TRADA Token in July of 2022 and was featured at the ITFA Porto in September.
