It also includes profit-sharing features and community stakeholder opportunities. xBridge lets users easily and conveniently transfer tokens across chains. xBridge is also free to use when transferring assets back and forth in short periods of time.

The Glitch protocol uses a Decay Nominated Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism. The mechanism has three layers. This modified PoS model helps to avoid the pooling of control. Validators are voted by GLITCH stakers and governance participants to validate the blocks on the GLITCH blockchain. There are 21 validators, Tendermint software randomly selected the block generators among the validators. The 21 validators are selected based on a ranking after a vote. Total block rewards are 1 GLCH plus the sum of all of the transaction fees of verified transactions on the specific block being verified. Block rewards are shared between validators and delegators.

The Glitch DAO is a crucial part of the network and is where network governance takes place. GLCH holders are entitled to take part in the DAO’s activities and vote on important decisions regarding the network.
