- XION chain announces that its ZK module and DKIM module are now live.
- The new infrastructure from XION enables email verification at scale using blockchain technology.
- The utility of XION’s ZK and DKIM Modules has been kick-started by more than 150 brands and its integration with Gmail and Apple Mail.
- The XION blockchain has challenged legacy chains by seeking to onboard billions of global web users to Web3.
XION ($XION) blockchain has announced its latest agent to catalyze mainstream adoption of crypto and web3. This generalized abstracted blockchain, focused on onboarding billions of web2 users to web3 at scale, announced its latest use of Zero Knowledge (ZK) proofs in enhancing data privacy on emails.
XION Unleashes DKIM and ZK Modules
The XION team has announced its strategic launch of the DKIM Module and the ZK Module on the mainnet. The DKIM Module will enable the XION layer one (L1) blockchain to authenticate selective email contents.

According to the core developers team, led by founder Burnt Banksy, the ZK Module will help the XION blockchain to democratize protocol-level ZK proof capability. Furthermore, Banksy believes that the current web3 protocols are not user-friendly, especially to the billions of global users familiar with web2 and little expertise in navigating through web3 protocols such as wallets.
“What if you could prove anything in your email without showing it? Without going rogue from your company’s X account? Prove employment. Prove purchases. Prove credentials. Verified. Private. Permanent. Today we’re launching the infrastructure that makes it possible,” the announcement stated.
Is XION Threatening Legacy Chains?
The XION team has come up with a fundamentally clever solution to onboarding billions of global users that legacy chains have struggled to implement in the recent past. With the crypto market having entered a bearish outlook in 2026, catalyzed by low retail adoption, XION intends to solve this by abstracting web3 features underneath the Web2 ecosystem led by email technology.
Furthermore, the DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) has existed since the post-dotcom era but has not evolved to match self-sovereignty that can only be achieved through blockchain technology. As such, the newly unveiled ZK Module and DKIM Module will help set apart XION blockchain from other legacy chains, led by Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL).
The XION blockchain has demonstrated its potential capabilities after making its system available to more than 150 major brands led by BMW, Amazon, and Uber. Consequently, the XION blockchain seamlessly serves 800,000 monthly active users.
The XION team intends to expand ZK proofs to other architectures, led by verifying app usage, purchase history, professional credentials, identity attributes, location history, financial thresholds, and subscription status.
Bigger Market Picture
The XION ecosystem is seeking to disrupt the mainstream adoption of digital assets and web3 protocols. With major jurisdictions – led by the United States, Asia Pacific region, Europe, and the Middle East – having regulated blockchain technology and web3 protocol development, XION is now keen to enable a secure, intuitive, and seamless user experience.
As such, the XION’s native coin is well-positioned to grow exponentially in the anticipated altcoin rebound, potentially to be catalyzed by the anticipated passage of the Clarity Act in the United States. Moreover, millions of altcoins were created in the past few years but ended up leveraging speculative aspects of crypto and not catalyzing mainstream adoption of digital assets and web3 protocols.
