๐๏ธ The community is onchain watching this get rolled out. The #Xchange core contract, router and lending pool contracts have been deployed and tested.
Test tokens have been deployed and liquidity loans, payback, payoff and liquidation have been tested and are functioning. /4
๐ Here we can see a test loan being executed.
This means projects can take a loan from the lending pool to seed their initial liquidity.
This offers a unique way to fund projects in a decentralized manner with money staying with the X7 ecosystem.
๐ง As per usual everything is being executed in a very meticulous manner.
Here we can see the tests on liquidations and repayments as well as third party integrations.
As well as interesting features around how bots can compete for liquidation rewards. /6
โ๏ธ A curveball that the devs threw us was announcing that the system is being rolled out across 5 chains simultaneously: Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon and BSC.
The graphic below also reinforces some of the key USPs of #Xchange discussed in the threads linked above. /7
โ๏ธ The execution of the decentralized dev team is honestly like nothing I've ever seen (no hyperbole).
It is flawless and transparent and the community are always kept fully up to date on development and movement of funds. /8
๐ค Of course now we have a product we have to get credible projects onto #Xchange
Myself and a number of the community members have been working on this.
There is a lot of interest and a solid pipeline and we should have some exciting announcements coming soon ๐ /9
๐ฐ But we did ask the devs to help us and as usual they offered a considered response.
We have a $25K build on #Xchange competition and a refer-a-project rewards programme.
See full details below and if you're a dev or know good projects you have a chance to be rewarded! /10
๐ An important point to note is that #Xchange is not an isolated ecosystem. It acts as an AMM so can be used to trade non-X7 pairs.
As offers cheaper trading fees than Uniswap this also creates opportunity for arbitrage (due to cheaper fees) driving volume to #Xchange. /11
๐ช And unlike Uniswap the X7 tokens have real intrinsic value across governance, value accrual and yield.
Here is a thread that explains the utility and value of each of the tokens within the ecosystem.
๐งต I've been lucky enough to get access to the @vela_exchange beta.
I've taken it for a test drive, and so far I really like it.
It's slick, quick and very easy to use with some nice features.
Here's a quick run through so you can get set up easily when they open access. /1
๐๏ธ First off I logged in with my whitelisted wallet and signed to give access. Nice and simple.
I then deposited the princely sum of $100. Make sure you have $ETH too to cover transaction costs.
Obviously these are very cheap as it's on Arbitrum. /2
๐ฑ On the home screen they have the list of assets available for trading. 3 cryptocurrencies: $BTC $ETH $DOGE and 3 fiat ๐คฎ synthetics: $EUR $YEN $GBP
You can see volume, open interest and number of trades as well as an account summary. Feels clean like the better CEX UI. /3
๐งต Things are hotting up for @FactorDAO. The public sale on @CamelotDEX is coming up fast in 5 weeks (announcement soon!).
Here's a recap on what $FCTR is all about and some sneak peaks into what's going on behind the scenes (plus some alpha if you read to the end) ๐ 1/14
๐งต Today's thread looks at another options platform: @Buffer_Finance.
They offer a simple way for users to trade (binary) options and is based on #RealYield revenue model.
It's simplicity should onboard users and it's degeneracy should generate good platform fees. 1/14
๐ฃ๏ธ The pitch: non-custodial, exotic options trading platform to trade short-term price volatility and hedge risk of high-leverage positions. On #Arbitrum.
It allows traders to create, buy, and settle options against a pool that generate #RealYield fees for $BFR stakers. 2/14
๐ Binary options are a type of financial instrument that allow traders to bet on the direction of the price of an underlying asset.
With the potential to earn a payout if their prediction is correct and lose their investment if it is incorrect. 3/14
