OKB X Layer

Overview

OKB X Layer is a Layer 2 scaling solution built on top of the Ethereum blockchain. It is powered by the Polygon CDK (Chain Development Kit) and uses ZK-rollup technology to deliver fast, low-cost transactions while inheriting Ethereum's security. OKB X Layer uses OKB as its native gas token. The X Layer Sepolia testnet uses chain ID 195. It utilizes:

Account model
EcDSA signature algorithm

OKB X Layer supports both legacy and TSS (Threshold Signature Scheme) transfers.

Faucet

You can use a faucet to obtain free testnet OKB X Layer for development and testing purposes.

Units

Each OKB X Layer is comprised of 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 (10¹⁸) wei, so not even a single OKB X Layer can be stored numerically without exceeding the range of JavaScript numbers. Gas fees are denoted in gwei.

1 OKB X Layer = 10¹⁸ wei
1 wei = 10^-18 OKB X Layer
1 gwei = 10^-9 OKB X Layer

For that reason, only string balance properties are available, which are balanceString, confirmedBalanceString, and spendableBalanceString.

Tokens

The OKB X Layer blockchain natively supports tokens. To view all BitGo supported tokens on the OKB X Layer Mainnet, see the OKB X Layer - ERC20 Tokens.

Fees

OKB X Layer supports both legacy (eth_gasPrice) and EIP-1559 (eth_feeHistory) gas estimation. OKB X Layer uses OKB as the gas token for transaction fees.

OKB X Layer's gas costs are typically very low. The base fee is the minimum price per unit of gas that a transaction must pay to be included in a block. Transactions must specify a maximum base fee higher than the block base fee to be included. The actual fee charged is the block base fee, even if the transaction specifies a higher maximum base fee.

The sequencer prioritizes transactions on a first-come first-served basis. Because priority fees do not make sense in this model, they are ignored. OKB X Layer users always just pay the base fee regardless of the tip they choose.

Consolidate Balance

Consolidation Fee Source: OKB X Layer Gas Tank

OKB X Layer uses forwarders, so it does not support manual consolidation.

const BitGoJS = require('../../../src/index.js');
const bitgo = new BitGoJS.BitGo({ env: 'test' });
const accessToken = '<YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN>';
const coin = 'tokbxlayer';

async function getFeeEstimate() {
  try {
    await bitgo.authenticateWithAccessToken({ accessToken });
    const res = await bitgo.coin(coin).feeEstimate({ numBlocks: 2 });
    console.dir(res);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error('Error fetching fee estimate:', err);
