<h2 id="what-is-xion">What is Xion?</h2> 
According to notes from its official website, Xion represents the first wallet-less blockchain built for mainstream adoption. Xion empowers developers to build, launch, and scale consumer-ready products from the ground up while removing technical barriers for users via its Chain Abstraction feature. 
<h2 id="what-is-chain-abstraction">What is Chain Abstraction?</h2> 
<a href="https://xion.burnt.com/chain-abstraction" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Chain Abstraction</a> simplifies the Web3 UX, removing technical complexities to empower builders to create powerful user-friendly Web3 apps. 
By decoupling the UI from the underlying blockchain infrastructure, Chain Abstraction ensures that users can interact with Web3 apps without needing specialized knowledge or dealing with the technical complexities of the technology. 
Key concepts include protocol-level innovations that enable: 
<ul> 
 <li>UX improvement</li> 
 <li>Functional simplification</li> 
 <li>Enhanced accessibility</li> 
</ul> 
These include user accounts, transactions, device support, fees, pricing, fragmentation, and distribution. 
Chain Abstraction focuses on delivering a seamless and intuitive experience, similar to using any web app, encouraging more people to use blockchain technology, and boosting mainstream adoption. 
Today, mainstream adoption of blockchain technology faces more challenges including the following: 
<ul> 
 <li>Complex user interfaces</li> 
 <li>High technical barriers</li> 
 <li>Cultural resistance to new technologies</li> 
</ul> 
Xion’s Chain Abstraction addresses these issues by enabling devs to build apps that make UX easier, and the project bridges the gap between blockchain technology and mainstream users. 
In April, Xion announced that it raised $25 million in a Series A funding round, with participants including Animoca Brands, Laser Digital, Multicoin, and others. The project’s total funding reached $36 million. 
Xion launched its testnet in December 2023, after raising $11 million from Circle Ventures, Animoca Brands, HashKey, and Valor, among other participants. 
<h2 id="what-is-the-xion-token">What is the XION Token?</h2> 
<a href="https://xion.burnt.com/get-xion" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">XION</a> is the native utility token that powers the Xion ecosystem, and it’s used to govern and secure the network, using a stake-based proof-of-abstraction (PoA) mechanism. Both validators and delegators can participate in staking. 
XION token is used as an anti-spam mechanism and economic security among others. The token is governed by its community which passes proposals concerning chain upgrades, protocol integrations, and more. 
The Xion blockchain is the initiative of Burnt. 
<h2 id="what-is-burnt">What is Burnt?</h2> 
<a href="https://burnt.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Burnt</a> is a Web3 foundry that has the mission to advance society’s financial and creative freedom, by any means necessary, according to the official website of the project. To achieve this vision, the project works with blockchain technology and Web3. 
Burnt integrates and teams up with like-minded individuals to build the infrastructure, products, and tools required to remove the cultural and functional barriers that keep crypto from resonating with society at large. 
Burnt Banksy, the CEO of Burnt, said that the team built a platform that lets the magic of <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/dictionary/cryptocurrency/">crypto</a> burn brightly behind the scenes, free of the usual mess and complexity. 
He said that this is not about playing catch-up with competitors, but about fueling innovation, breaking boundaries, and setting the blockchain world on the path to many possibilities.
