Wanchain Cryptocurrency
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. Due to its origin as an Ethereum (ETH) fork, Wanchain enjoys some of the Ethereum blockchain's properties. Transactions on Wanchain occur not only between different public blockchains, but also between private chains. Wanchain uses smart contracts to process applications in a secure and autonomous manner. Applications for the Wanchain protocol include decentralized exchanges (DEXs), lending and borrowing platforms, stablecoins, crowdfunding, and multi-currency payments.

Features
- Wanchain is trying to create a wider market for digital assets by establishing connections between different blockchains. Through smart contracts, security measures, and its own token (WAN), the platform has been able to develop a series of applications.
- It uses the Locked Account Generation Scheme to secure funds and keys when there are multiple parties involved. Based on Shamir's Secret Sharing Scheme, it effectively breaks up a key into shares and distributes it to all included participants. The Storemen are responsible for maintaining and managing the appropriate key shares of the locked accounts for transactions.
- Any transaction with a locked account is done via the original chain. This means that any chain can easily integrate and interact with Wanchain without the need for new transaction types or validators.
Wallet
WAN tokens can be purchased on exchanges such as Binance, KuCoin, Huobi Global
