$ALPHA team would like to now share more details on #AlphaX, the decentralized, non-orderbook perpetual swap trading market and a new class of trading product previously unavailable on-chain.! 🔥

Let’s take a look inside #AlphaX!👇

blog.alphafinance.io/inside-alphax/
2) First and foremost, for those who have not signed up for access to beta private testnet, you can still sign up via the link below until Dec 17th, 5AM UTC.

We'll grant access in the coming days. Stay tuned!

👉Sign up: forms.gle/USgX6yMEQtm8VB…

Continue for UI sneak peek 👇
3) This screenshot is how #AlphaX private beta version looks like! $ALPHA team has built #AlphaX UI to be as user friendly as possible.

We believe a great #DeFi product doesn't only need to be innovative, but also need to be user friendly to existing and new #DeFi users. Image
4) Who do we target as #AlphaX users?

👉 Anyone who wants to take a directional view on any asset (no need to be professional perp swap traders)

With these target users in mind, we have come up with a unique engineering and product design to better capture this large market!
5) #AlphaX Unique Feature #1: Funding rate baked into the entry/exit price (no explicit funding events)

Typically, traders need to understand funding rate concept to trade perp swap.

With #AlphaX, traders don't need to know anything beyond what prices they enter and exit at. Image
6) #AlphaX Unique Feature #2: Tokenized leveraged long/short positions

Long/short tokens comply with ERC-1155 standard, which #AlphaX'll wrap them to ERC-20 tokens.

Tokenized positions'll open doors to more innovation & unlock interoperability between #AlphaX & #DeFi projects. Image
7) #AlphaX Unique Feature #3: Lower slippage through dynamic K

#AlphaX uses constant product, x*y=k model with K being dynamically adjusted.

It is important to have K be dynamically adjusted to balance between two trade-offs of slippage vs. capital requirement to move prices. Image
8) What’s Next?

Sign up for beta private testnet will remain open until Dec 17th, 5AM UTC. $ALPHA team'll work closely with beta private testers throughout testing process.

Going forward, we'll explain the underlying mechanics that power the unique functionalities of #AlphaX!
9) All in all, #AlphaX will not only bring #DeFi space a new class of trading product previously unavailable on-chain, but also allow #AlphaHomora users to hedge their leveraged positions to minimize downside risks.
10) For a lot more details, please read through the blog post below.

@AlphaFinanceLab would like to now welcome
@BoringDAO_Defi community to #AlphaHomora by supporting $ETH / $BOR and $ETH / $oBTC pools that are on @SushiSwap!

What does this mean to $BTC supporters? 👇

blog.alphafinance.io/alpha-homora-a…
2) ETH/oBTC will join a family of Bitcoin-based pools, including $ETH / $WBTC and $ETH / $renBTC, that #AlphaHomora has been supporting.

#Bitcoin supporters can easily participate in #DeFi and
#YieldFarming on #Ethereum with a single-asset supply functionality on #AlphaHomora.
3) This means anyone who owns $oBTC, $WBTC, or $renBTC

can earn from #DeFi and #YieldFarming by simply supplying these tokens to the relevant pools on #AlphaHomora without needing to have $ETH.

What do users gain from ETH/BOR and ETH/oBTC pools? 👇

--> Or provide UNI-v2 LP token of ibETH/ALPHA pool for those who have already provided liquidity to the pool

#AlphaHomora x @AaveAave !

@AlphaFinanceLab would like to welcome December with a partnership and integration between #AlphaHomora and @AaveAave with the newly added feature of “Earn on Aave + ETH” 🚀

How does it work? 👇

blog.alphafinance.io/alpha-homora-a…
2) Since the deposit APY on $ETH on #AlphaHomora is higher than the borrow APY on $ETH on @AaveAave, you will already earn from this difference in addition to the deposit APY of other assets you lend on Aave!

Users can go through 3 simple steps to earn from this 👇
3) Step 1: Through #AlphaHomora frontend, first lend asset on @AaveAave and use it as collateral OR if you have already lent and turned on the collateral, then you can skip to step 2 Image

We'd like to share our response to the misrepresented information from @defiyield_info, as Defiyield does not fully understand the rationale which they would have had they reach out to discuss 👇

blog.alphafinance.io/response-to-a-…
1. First point on 96% of the token supply in a wallet:

This is genesis minting, generating all supply on *both* Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain. Currently, a fully decentralized cross-chain bridge does not exist at the moment so we need to rely on a more centralized approach.
1.1 The biggest holder on Ethereum (964,300,000 ALPHA) is the locked token and can only be unlocked when ALPHA token on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) is transferred to the same address. This is how cross-chain functionality can be deployed on BSC, and how ALPHA can be on both chains.
