I believe the most important factor for the future success of any cryptocurrency is what it can be used for. Below are 10 things you can do with eCash XEC today. Remember that we are still early, and this is only the beginning...

P2P transactions: This is the most basic function that any cryptocurrency should be able to perform. Send and receive coins from one person to another, to a local merchant, or a business like Coinsbee that accepts XEC for gift cards, or the many swap exchanges that let you convert between coins and tokens on different chains. eCash is excellent for transactions with its low fees and fast processing times.
Run an eCash staking node: Did you know you can earn yield on your XEC by running your own Avalanche enabled eCash staking node? Minimum requirement is 100M XEC and the coins must not have moved for at least two weeks. Unstake at any time, and you never have to hand over your private keys. The current APY is 5.6%.
Buy XECX: Using the agora market in Cashtab, you can trade your XEC for XECX token. Similar to stETH, this is a token on the eCash network that represents staked XEC, allowing holders to earn yield on their XEC without having to run their own node. It's a trusted set-up, but if you're looking for yield without having to run your own node, this is a great option. Payouts daily. Learn more at stakedxec.com.
Buy FIRMA: FIRMA is a yield bearing dollar stablecoin that can also be purchased in the agora market in Cashtab. Easily trade in and out of FIRMA to hedge against volatility while earning yield that gets paid out daily just like XECX. Current APY is 8.2%. Also bridge in and out FIRMA with USDC or USDT on the Solana network. Learn more at Firma.cash.
Play BlitzChips: Satoshidice style casino game that accepts the FIRMA stablecoin. Play for as little as $0.0001 worth of FIRMA with odds ranging from 1.1x to 10,000x. When you win, you win FIRMA, when you lose, you earn BLITZ tokens that give you better odds depending on how much BLITZ you hold. The game is fast, provably fair, and both fun and addicting to play.

Mint NFTs: You can mint non-fungible tokens on XEC for a fraction of a penny. This means you can tokenize digital art, tickets, or anything else you can think of.
Mint tokens: Create your own meme tokens, tokenize RWAs, or raise capital with an initial coin offering. While eCash tokens lack some of the programmability you might find on Ethereum or Solana, they offer significantly cheaper transaction fees, and a smoother, simpler UX for users.
Send Dividends/Airdrops: Did you know you can send XEC airdrops to eCash token holders? Let's say you mint a token and distribute them to a 100 people. You can send token holders XEC based on the number of tokens they hold or the same amount to all addresses holding that token. This is how the daily yield on XECX is paid out.
Join the GNC: The Global Network Council (GNC) is a group of proven eCash stakeholders who vote on proposals for projects that apply for GNC funding. In order to become a GNC member, you have to be able to cryptographically prove you hold at least 10B XEC. Learn more at gnc.e.cash.
PayButton: Last but not least, unlock digital content using the PayButton and XEC. You wouldn't be reading this now if you didn't already know how to do this, but I believe being able to pay for digital content is one of the most powerful use cases for digital cash and empowers creators and consumers alike. By using eCash instead of credit cards, you no longer have to rely on trusted third parties who collect your data and charge excessive processing fees. Learn more at PayButton.org.
