Frequently asked questions
Plain-language answers to the questions most often asked of the state. Each answer is candid about what is built, what is in development, and what recognition Xity does and does not claim.
Honest answers, no overclaiming
Questions are grouped by category and may be filtered using the chips at the top of the list. Where a feature is in development or not yet operating, the answer says so rather than implying otherwise.
Xity is a digital nation built on XityChain, a public ledger, with a reserve-backed currency (XityCoin) and a claims-based identity system (XityConnect). The technology is operational. Constitutional instruments, government institutions, and external recognition are in formation.
No. Xity has not been recognised by any existing state, and no formal recognition process has been opened. Nothing on this site should be read as a claim of statehood or recognition.
Not yet. No charter, statute, bill of rights, or gazette entry has been enacted or published. The law section of this site is an empty placeholder until real instruments are supplied.
No. No institution has been constituted and no office has been filled. A proposed structure (executive, legislative, judicial, independent oversight) appears on the government page as a framework only.
XityCoin is reserve-backed at a one-to-one ratio. Minting requires a reserve deposit; burning releases the reserve. Both operations are atomic. The reserve composition is not currently published.
Not at this time. The site does not list attestations because none has been performed. The 1:1 ratio describes the mint-and-burn mechanism, not an audited conclusion.
The chain supports wallet freeze and unfreeze, address whitelists and blacklists, and three circuit breakers (pause minting, transfers, redemption). Any use of these controls is recorded on-chain. No enacted policy governs their use yet.
Identity evidence is held on the access-controlled core and never returned over the public API. The public role returns only balance, nonce, and existence, never public keys, identity names, or address-to-identity linkages.
A relying party can verify a specific claim and receive yes/no with a signed proof. The system currently evaluates five claim types (verified, citizen, over_18, kyc_passed, wallet_owned). Six further published claim types are in development.
Recovery is possible through a time-delayed process with a 24-hour waiting period. The delay is a deliberate security feature that frustrates social-engineering takeover. After the delay, the holder rotates to a new key.
XityChain uses Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (PBFT) with three-phase commit and a quorum of two-thirds of validators. The chain currently runs in single-validator mode with instant finality. Multi-validator operation is designed, not activated.
A restricted public node can sync and relay signed transactions. It has no identity access and no minting authority. Contact business@spacexity.org to register one.
The public explorer and the developer endpoints let any person audit the chain. You can verify the block hashes and the public state without trusting any operator.
