Wanchain Delegation Tutorial

What is Wanchain?

Wanchain is a distributed ledger that allows for cross-chain transactions and the interoperability of multiple chains. Although Wanchain facilitates transactions between blockchains, it is also a stand-alone blockchain that runs autonomously. The protocol acts as a distributed ledger that processes and maintains records of cross-chain transactions. Aiming to break down the barriers between public and private blockchain networks, Wanchain is enabling financial freedom, empowerment, and connectedness that humans have never experienced in history. Follow the steps below to stake your WAN.
