XDC Network ended March 2025 with major strides in real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, cross-chain stablecoin liquidity, and global expansion. From the launch of an enterprise-grade RWA accelerator to key partnerships across Brazil, South Korea, and Australia, XDC showed why it’s becoming a go-to blockchain for institutional adoption.
March Ignites Cross-Chain Liquidity and Developer Expansion
XDC Network opened March with major strides in infrastructure and developer support. These updates created momentum across DeFi, indexing, and stablecoin access.
XSwap Launches USDC Bridge for Low-Cost Liquidity
On March 3, XSwap Protocol launched a USDC bridge, connecting XDC Network with Ethereum and Arbitrum. The bridge uses a lock-and-mint model, maintaining 1:1 token value. It enables secure, low-cost transfers across chains.
The bridge is accessible at bridge.xdc.org and slashes costs by up to 70%. XSwap data shows XDC users now pay significantly less than Ethereum’s $5 average gas fees in March. As a result, developers and DeFi protocols gain seamless access to USDC liquidity.
This move matters. Stablecoin transfers jumped 25% in Q1 2025, according to Chainalysis. XDC’s EVM compatibility positions it to capture serious market share. For businesses, this means real solutions for real-world payments and trade finance flows.
USDC Bridge Supports Institutional DeFi
The USDC bridge is more than a technical upgrade—it’s a strategic unlock. XDC-based protocols can now integrate stablecoins directly into lending, staking, and RWA flows. This reduces friction and improves user experience.
Institutions and enterprises also benefit. They can now move funds across chains while leveraging XDC’s compliance-ready architecture. This helps bridge traditional finance with decentralized finance. With stablecoins live on XDC, the network becomes even more attractive for real-world asset tokenization.
Envio Brings High-Speed Indexing to XDC
On March 19, Envio’s HyperIndex added support for XDC Network. This multichain indexer syncs blockchain data up to 2,000x faster than traditional RPC methods. Developers now have a powerful tool to build responsive, data-rich dApps.
Envio helps solve a major bottleneck—indexing blockchain data at scale. According to The Graph’s 2025 annual report, demand for efficient data indexing rose 25% this year. XDC’s integration addresses this head-on, making it easier to deploy high-performance dApps for DeFi, RWAs, and beyond.
With faster backend access, builders now spend less time on infrastructure and more time delivering real products.
Trade moves fast—your data should, too.

Infrastructure Now Matches Ecosystem Ambition
Taken together, these March updates show that XDC isn’t just growing—it’s scaling. The USDC bridge expands liquidity. Envio accelerates development speed. Both tools remove friction for teams building real-world finance solutions.
This infrastructure wave supports XDC’s long-term mission: to power low-cost, high-efficiency global finance. Developers have the tools. Liquidity is live. Now, enterprise-grade adoption becomes more attainable than ever.
Real-World Asset Acceleration Sets XDC Apart
March proved that XDC Network is no longer just preparing for tokenization—it’s leading it. The ecosystem took major steps to bring real-world finance on-chain.
Plug and Play RWA Accelerator Launches
On March 24, the XDC Foundation and Plug and Play Tech Center announced the first-ever Enterprise RWA Accelerator. This three-month program brings eleven established projects to Silicon Valley to build on XDC.
These aren’t early-stage startups. They are real-world innovators from DeFi, compliance, and finance. The goal is simple—accelerate tokenization adoption at scale. Projects include Clearpool, Tokeny, Plume, and others focused on institutional-grade asset infrastructure.
The launch of the Plug and Play RWA Accelerator reflects a clear industry shift. More blockchain accelerators now focus on tokenizing real-world assets as institutional demand grows. XDC’s involvement places it at the forefront of this evolution. The move also builds directly on XDC’s strong foundation in regulated trade finance, where the network continues to solve real-world inefficiencies.
Brazilian RWA Partnership Expands XDC Reach
On March 19, XDC Network partnered with Mercado Bitcoin, Brazil’s largest crypto exchange. Together, they will tokenize $15 million in real-world assets backed by corporate debt.
Brazil’s corporate debt market tops $1.2 trillion. Tokenized securities in the region have already surged 40% since 2023, according to Cointelegraph Brazil. This deal opens access to an untapped investor base in Latin America.
Using XDC infrastructure, Mercado Bitcoin will offer fixed-income tokens that can be traded and verified on-chain. This sets the stage for broader adoption in a region eager for financial innovation.
@XDC_Network_ and @MercadoBitcoin are revolutionizing the tokenization of real-world assets! $15M in RWA tokens backed by Brazilian corporate debt are coming, connecting investors to an $18B market.

RWA Momentum Signals Institutional Readiness
These moves show more than ecosystem growth—they signal XDC’s institutional readiness. With the RWA accelerator and Latin American tokenization underway, XDC stands out among Layer 1s chasing real-world use.
The network blends public transparency with private functionality, a must-have for enterprise adoption. Global trade volume hit $32 trillion in 2024, and the $1.7 trillion financing gap remains unsolved. XDC is building the tools to change that.
As more enterprises explore tokenization, XDC isn’t waiting for the market to catch up. It’s already building it.
Global Events Push XDC’s Reach Across Continents
Beyond infrastructure, XDC spent March expanding its global influence. The team participated in high-level policy, developer, and ecosystem-building events across four continents.
On March 10, XDC joined the DECA Policy Forum 2025, where Australian regulators discussed digital asset frameworks. Sean White represented the network, weighing in on taxation and tokenization policy. As Australia drafts its Digital Assets Framework, XDC is now in the room helping shape the conversation.
Mid-month, the network engaged the Middle East. On March 15, XDC co-hosted a Web3 Iftar Meetup in Dubai with Hedera. The Crypto Hub organized the event during Ramadan, bringing together thought leaders to explore RWA tokenization and regional adoption. With Gulf countries rapidly digitizing finance, XDC’s presence in Dubai positioned it well for future partnerships.

XDC then turned to Asia. On March 26, it hosted “XDC Network to the World” in Seoul with Plug and Play APAC. This event spotlighted XDC’s role in solving Asia’s $500 billion trade finance gap, according to the Asian Development Bank. South Korea now boasts over 200 blockchain startups, making it a strategic target for XDC’s expansion.
Finally, XDC participated in GTR Africa 2025 on March 13–14. The event, focused on reshaping African trade finance, provided an ideal platform for XDC’s blockchain-based trade network to connect with banks and export agencies.
These events show that XDC isn’t just growing its tech—it’s planting roots in the world’s key economic regions.
On March 20, Genfinity and the XDC Foundation hosted a standout podcast titled “Real-World Adoption Accelerates.” The episode featured developer advocate Quincy Jones and ecosystem lead Lance Lilly, diving deep into the launch of the Plug and Play RWA Accelerator and the future of real-world asset tokenization on XDC Network.
Lance explained how the accelerator isn’t just about startups. It’s about accelerating an entire industry. The cohort includes mature projects in tokenization, lending, and DeFi—each bringing capital, compliance, and use-case depth to the XDC ecosystem. Quincy emphasized the need for middleware, product-grade user experience, and solutions that institutions can adopt easily. Both agreed: adoption will come not from hype, but from infrastructure that works.

The conversation also touched on the recent USDC bridge launch and how cross-chain liquidity enables more powerful DeFi applications. They discussed why tokenization can unlock trillions in idle capital—once key bottlenecks like UX, standards, and trust are solved. Their insights showed how XDC is tackling each of these challenges head-on.
The broadcast drew over 140,000 viewers, setting a new record for the XDC community. It wasn’t just another podcast—it was a moment. The energy was focused, practical, and grounded in real progress. As X Live continues, it’s becoming the go-to platform for real-time insight into XDC’s enterprise growth and ecosystem evolution.
Meanwhile, XDC continues to build its builder base. On April 5, it will host a Blockmeet developer event in Pune, offering $2,000 in prizes and access to $100K in funding. With India now home to over 1,000 blockchain startups (per NASSCOM), this initiative supports XDC’s long-term goal of growing a developer-first ecosystem.
The network’s growth in March wasn’t top-down—it was community-powered. From Twitter to Telegram, users are educating, onboarding, and building on their own.
