Drivechains Financial Hub
Sidecoin brings BIP-300/BIP-301 Drivechains to the eCash ecosystem: one wallet, one explorer, and at least 8 launch Drivechains for payments, identity, assets, privacy, markets, and more.
eCash Hard Fork Countdown
2026-10-31 15:00 UTC · Block ~973,728
Sidecoin is the Drivechains Financial Hub for eCash. It is built for the upcoming eCash hard fork (block ~973,728, October 31 2026), supporting BIP-300 Hashrate Escrows and BIP-301 Blind Merged Mining so sidechains can be secured by Bitcoin's full SHA-256d hashrate.
Native app powered by Tauri + Rust. Full node connectivity, hardware wallet support, and BIP-300 deposit/withdrawal management.
React Native app for Android (F-Droid) and iOS. QR scanning, biometric auth, and lightweight SPV mode for on-the-go payments.
Browser-based wallet (coming soon). No install required — connect to your node and manage sidechains from any device.
Each assigned sidechain occupies a sparse BIP-300 slot and is secured by Bitcoin's full hashrate via Blind Merged Mining (BIP-301). Announced chains without final assignments display Slot TBD.
High-throughput scaling sidechain with a large, growing blocksize and fraud proofs. Fast, low-fee everyday payments.
Slot 9
Privacy-focused sidechain with shielded transactions. Zcash-style zero-knowledge proofs on a Bitcoin-secured chain.
Slot 98
Decentralized naming and identity system. Register human-readable names anchored to the Bitcoin-secured mainchain.
Slot 2
Tokenized assets — issue and trade ERC-20-style tokens, NFTs, and ICOs secured by Bitcoin hashrate.
Slot 4
Post-quantum cryptography sidechain. Quantum-resistant signatures securing value against future quantum attacks.
Slot 99
Paul Sztorc's prediction market sidechain. Decentralized oracle system using peer-to-peer outcome resolution.
Slot 13
Cross-chain atomic swap sidechain. Trustless exchange between eCash and other cryptocurrency networks.
Slot 255
Avalanche L1 EVM sidechain with native BTC gas via Blind Merged Mining. Full EVM compatibility (Solidity, Hardhat, Foundry) secured by Bitcoin hashrate.
Slot 88
RISC-V-based sidechain. Reserved at slot 3.
Slot 3
Bitcoin drivechain sidechain (BIP 300/301 via the CUSF enforcer). Peg-only MVP with blind-merge-mining; the FreeBank credit layer lands as later activation-gated upgrades on the same chain.
Slot 130
Elements-based BIP-300 Drivechain functionality with advanced Bitcoin scripting features.
