Please note that both the TLChain software and this documentation site will improve over time and is still a work-in-progress.

Have fun trading and see you on the chain!
What is TLChain?
TLChain is an innovative solution to bring programmability and interoperability to TLChain. TLChain relies on a system of PoA consensus that can support short block time and lower fees. The most bonded validator candidates of staking will become validators and produce blocks. The double-sign detection and other slashing logic guarantee security, stability, and chain finality.
Issue new tokens to digitalize assets, and use TLChain as underlying exchange/transfer network for the assets
For developers, you can also:
Run a full node to listen to and broadcast live updates on transactions, blocks, and consensus activities
TLChain, TC boasts smart contract functionality and compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). The design goal here was to leave the high throughput of TLChain intact while introducing smart contracts into its ecosystem.
Because TC is EVM-compatible, it launched with support for the rich universe of Ethereum tools and DApps. In theory, this makes it easy for developers to port their projects over from Ethereum. For users, it means that applications like MetaMask can be easily configured to work with TC. Seriously – it’s just a matter of tweaking a couple of settings. Check out Use MetaMask for TLChain to get started.
You can:
Send and receive TLC
Explore the transaction history and blocks on the chain, via TLC SCAN, API and node RPC interfaces.

Asset Management
TL20 Asset
A token protocol on TC which is compatible with ERC20. It extends ERC20 and contains more interfaces, such as getOwner and decimals. Read the full proposal here: https://github.com/xtlchain
TLC Coin (TLC) was an ERC20 token on the Ethereum network.
After the launch of TLChain, TLC Coin (TLC) is being converted into native TLC tokens on the main network via the exchange platform at tlxscan.com, a pragmatic and efficient way to perform the initial token swap.
TLChain is ready for other projects to migrate their tokens to take advantage of performant transactions with more liquidity options and native marketplace features.
More information about how projects can set themselves up for this (via tlxscan.com or partners) will come soon.
