From real asset on-chain (RWA), AI collaboration mechanisms, to chain games and corporate points systems, an increasing number of industries are attempting to connect to on-chain systems, exploring collaborative paths between digital natives and the real world. However, the industry generally faces three major systemic obstacles: lack of incentive mechanisms, fragile collaboration structures, and high deployment thresholds. If Web3 is to truly embed itself in the real economy, it must break through these structural constraints.
Against this backdrop, XAI announced that it will officially launch its mainnet on June 19, 2025. As a 'mechanism-first' general-purpose industrial collaboration protocol, XAI aims to provide low-threshold, sustainable on-chain incentives and collaborative capabilities for non-chain original production industries, promoting Web3 from 'functional experimentation' to 'value embedding'.
Unlike traditional paths that start from application scenarios, XAI chooses to begin at the mechanism level. Its core is a set of composable and scalable on-chain incentive protocols that provide a unified value coordination framework through a modular structure and standardized interfaces, reducing the technical and mechanism thresholds for industries to go on-chain.
In terms of application prospects, XAI initially focuses on DeFi and chain gaming scenarios, leveraging resources from mature ecosystems while accumulating experience for subsequent expansions into AI collaboration, RWA asset rights confirmation, corporate points systems, and other scenarios. Its supporting SDK and standardized incentive modules will free developers from building underlying mechanisms; this 'Lego-style' modular design aligns with the current trend in Web3 development that pursues agile iteration and rapid integration.
Although XAI represents cutting-edge exploration of the integration of Web3 and the real economy, the industry still needs to maintain rational judgment. Mechanism-driven protocols face two core challenges: first, the verification of mechanism adaptability across industry scenarios requires substantial support from real business data; second, under the accelerated process of compliance, how to balance token economics with regulatory requirements remains an unresolved issue. According to industry research institutions, in the next 1-2 years, mechanism platform projects will face at least three rounds of market selection, ultimately forming a competitive landscape dominated by a few leading protocols.
As Web3 gradually breaks free from the shackles of 'crypto islands', incentive frameworks and open systems oriented towards the real world are becoming new competitive high grounds. With the mainnet launch approaching, the performance of XAI deserves attention. Whether it can support a genuine industrial collaboration network and build a sustainable value loop still requires dual testing by time and market. But regardless of the outcome, the mechanism-driven architecture promoted by XAI has provided another possible path for Web3 to find 'real anchor points'.
