What is Exiom (XEQM)?
XEQM Labs is a privacy-preserving Proof-of-Stake network and developer platform. The network operates on a 60-second block time with a fixed circulating supply of 276,917,604 XEQM, established through a one-time migration from the legacy Equilibria (XEQ) chain. Network security is maintained by a set of service nodes that stake XEQM and earn block rewards for participating in consensus. The network uses no Proof-of-Work mining component. The protocol distributes 8.25 XEQM per block as service node rewards, generating approximately 11,880 XEQM in daily block emissions.
How does Exiom work?
A separate governance emission of approximately 17,857 XEQM per day funds protocol development, ecosystem programs, security audits, and a long-term reserve. The project commits to a fixed-supply discipline with no discretionary mints and no token burns. Service nodes require a full stake of 200,000 XEQM, with operators contributing a minimum of 100,000 XEQM and community contributors filling up to 10 additional slots at a 10,000 XEQM minimum per slot. Service nodes operate on continuous terms rather than fixed periods, with a 14-day unbonding window when operators choose to exit.
