According to official news, OKX Wallet users can now enjoy 0 gas fees when transferring USDT and USDC on X Layer, effective immediately. This feature is powered by OKX's self-developed x402 protocol and represents OKX's ongoing development and optimization of its Layer 2 network, X Layer. This upgrade aims to further reduce costs for core user scenarios, improve the on-chain experience, and promote the development of the X Layer ecosystem. Users can directly access this feature through OKX Wallet. X Layer is a global on-chain ecosystem focused on DeFi, payments, and RWA, connecting OKX and the Ethereum community. Its vision is to bring everything on-chain. OKX Wallet, as a leading one-stop Web3 portal, already supports 140+ popular public chains.

According to official news from Odaily Planet Daily, OKX has decided to strategically upgrade X Layer, transforming it into a leading public chain focused on DeFi, payments, and Repository Waivers (RWA) scenarios. Built on Polygon CDK, X Layer completed its "PP upgrade" on August 5, 2025, increasing network throughput to 5,000 TPS, reducing gas costs to near zero, and enhancing security and compatibility with the Ethereum mainnet. The upgrade will also advance ecosystem development, focusing on DeFi, global payments, and the issuance and circulation of Repository Waivers (RWAs). Application adoption will be accelerated through ecosystem funds, liquidity incentives, and infrastructure improvements. OKX Wallet, OKX Exchange, and OKX Pay are fully integrated into X Layer, offering fast, zero-gas withdrawals and an efficient on-chain payment experience. This upgrade also includes optimizations to the OKB Gas Token economic model. OKB will continue to serve as the sole gas and native token of the X Layer. OKX will destroy 65,256,712.097 OKB from historical repurchases and reserves. Following this, the OKB smart contract will be upgraded to remove the issuance and manual burn functions, fixing the total supply at 21 million. Users holding Ethereum L1 OKB must deposit their assets to OKX and then complete the chain swap via the "Withdraw to X Layer" function. Concurrently, OKTChain will be phased out, ceasing trading on OKX at 2:10 PM (UTC+8) on August 13, 2025. OKT will be periodically exchanged for an equivalent amount of OKB based on the average closing price from July 13 to August 12, 2025. On-chain OKT exchange will continue until January 1, 2026.

Odaily news: zkSync co-founder Alex G proposed a new governance solution that utilizes L1 Fork as the final court of appeal. This solution aims to establish an on-chain court hierarchical system similar to real-world judicial institutions and provide it with a standard ERC interface. Specifically, each protocol has its own governance and defines normal and emergency upgrade mechanisms. The protocol must also specify a special contract as the instance for appeals. For emergency upgrades, there must be an appeal period during which anyone can challenge the decision to a higher court and they must pay a predetermined bail. The court can then cancel the emergency upgrade (without taking any other action). Different courts will have different members, prices, and reputations in a fully decentralized manner. Each court must also specify a higher court to which appeals can be made until reaching the highest court of Ethereum. The decision of this smart contract can only be determined by the L1 soft fork. "Our idea is to form social consensus on this concept and deploy a 'standard' court instance that has a very high cost of usage, and only truly special cases would be submitted to it. This may be worth the attention of the entire Ethereum Layer-0 (social consensus), such as errors in Uniswap, major L2, and DeFi protocols with systemic risks," Alex G added. He further emphasized that the most important function of this system is to protect protocols from external political interference and serve as a powerful deterrent mechanism. zkSync is keen to support such research.
