Today we are proud to open the public beta of AkashicChain: a Layer-2 ledger for multichain assets that is non-custodial by design.
For a long time, moving value between blockchains has meant juggling wallets, buying gas tokens you did not want, waiting on confirmations and trusting a custodian to hold your keys. AkashicChain is our answer to that. It settles USDT, USDC and native coins from Tron, Ethereum, BNB Chain and Solana in seconds, at a fraction of Layer-1 cost, and no single party ever holds your keys.
You can try it now at beta.akashicchain.com.
One account. Every chain.
The idea behind AkashicChain is simple. You have one AkashicChain identity, and it works across every network we support:
1. Deposit from any L1. Send supported assets to a personal deposit address tied to your AkashicChain identity. Funds are credited as soon as the Layer-1 confirms.
2. Move value on AkashicChain. Transfers between accounts settle in seconds. You do not need to buy gas, and costs are far lower than on the underlying Layer-1s.
3. Withdraw anywhere. Withdraw to any supported Layer-1 address. With gas-fee delegation you pay the network fee in the token you are sending, so there is no more topping up ETH just to move your USDT.
Supported at launch
Tron: TRX, USDT
Ethereum: ETH, USDT, USDC
BNB Chain: BNB, USDT, USDC
Solana: SOL, USDT, USDC
Cold-wallet security, hot-wallet availability
Security was the part of AkashicChain we spent the longest on, and it is the part we are most proud of. Layer-1 private keys are protected by AkashicVault, which uses Shamir Secret Sharing to split each key across four or more decentralised nodes. No single entity can reconstruct a key, and that includes us.
Assets only move when a valid One-Time Key (OTK) signs the transaction and the network reaches consensus. Validation happens on a distributed ledger without intermediaries. Partners never hand over their keys, and businesses keep direct control of their assets at all times.
“No single party, including Akashic, can ever reconstruct your keys.”
An ecosystem, not just a chain
AkashicChain launches alongside the tools that make it useful from day one:
AkashicLink is a self-custodial wallet, available as a browser extension and on mobile, with human-readable aliases, instant transfers and multi-network deposits.
AkashicScan is the explorer for accounts, transfers, deposits and withdrawals.
AkashicPay is a payment gateway for businesses, built on AkashicChain. More on that very soon.
For developers
We ship official SDKs for JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, PHP, C# and Java, and the testnet runs on Sepolia and Shasta so you can build and test without touching real funds.
What beta means
This is a beta, and we will keep iterating quickly based on what we learn. We would love for you to create an account, move some value around, try deposits and withdrawals across chains, and tell us what you think, both the good and the bad.
To everyone at Dreams AI who has spent late nights on consensus, key management and cross-chain plumbing: thank you. This launch is yours.
