Odaily Planet Daily News: Deutsche Telekom's subsidiary announced on Thursday that it will expand its Web3 services to XDC Network (XDC), a blockchain focused on tokenized RWA, trade finance and DePIN. Deutsche Telekom MMS, which is dedicated to cloud and Internet infrastructure, joins the network as an infrastructure provider and will operate a backup master node. This type of node does not verify transactions on the blockchain by default, but will be called if the number of operating validator master nodes falls below the required level of 108. Dirk Röder, head of the Web3 department at Deutsche Telekom MMS, said: "This initiative leverages our enterprise-grade infrastructure to enable secure blockchain-based applications, with a focus on the financial sector."
