C9 Tech has been at the forefront of developing innovative blockchain and fintech solutions, including tokenized loyalty programs and Web3 payment systems. With expertise in loyalty systems, payment gateways, cards, PIX integrations, and custom solutions, we consistently deliver tools that enhance efficiency and security in the financial market. Our commitment to the XDC network led to migrating the C9coin tokenized loyalty program, along with over 60,000 active users, to the new Subnet. This move improves scalability, transaction speed, and cost efficiency, enabling a more seamless experience for B2C clients.
C9 Tech has already achieved recognition in various real-world success stories. For example, we developed a Web3 card exclusively for public servants in a city in SĂŁo Paulo state, as reported by Valor EconĂ´mico
.
. Additionally, we helped major retailers, such as Camisaria Colombo, adopt cryptocurrency payments, promoting financial inclusion and innovation in the retail sector
Building on this history of innovation and real-world impact, we are excited to announce the implementation of prepaid gas in smart contracts. This is one of the most significant initiatives we are exploring to maximize the potential of XDCâs subnets, focusing on making the blockchain experience more accessible and efficient for users. We have already successfully utilized subnets and recognize the numerous advantages they offer, such as:
The same speed as the mainnet, but with free acquisition slots for exclusive use;
The ability to create authorized networks for greater privacy;
Full control over masternodes;
Control over the issuance of the networkâs main currency, allowing adjustments to the genesis.json file before network deployment.
The introduction of prepaid gas contracts brings a series of benefits that further expand the applications of blockchain technology. For instance, a logistics company could leverage this feature to streamline IoT device integration, enabling automated payments for shipping milestones without requiring manual intervention or additional Gas payments from end users.
âGas-freeâ technology for smart contracts is an essential part of the XDC network, providing a more accessible experience;
In future IoT contracts, the ability to prepay the Gas fee greatly simplifies the integration of IoT devices with blockchain;
Easier use of ERC20 tokens, as token holders do not need to possess the networkâs native currency;
Gas impulse payments, with prepaid funds and definable minimum amounts.
It is important to note that despite these advantages, challenges remain, such as the reliance on the native currency for transactions in wallets like Metamask. Without the native currency, Metamask does not complete the transaction as it considers the Gas balance before sending it.
The necessary steps to enable this technology are documented in our GitHub repository, as well as in the Web3 command-line documentation:
This innovation has the potential to significantly enrich the network, opening up new possibilities and adding value to the ecosystem as a whole. Looking ahead, C9 Tech is committed to exploring additional advancements and partnerships to further enhance blockchain accessibility and usability, ensuring sustained growth and innovation for all stakeholders.
