Company Description
The Balancer cryptocurrency is the reward token that fuels the Balancer market maker protocol. The Balancer protocol serves as a liquidity provider and a non-custodial portfolio manager. Unlike other automatic market maker protocols, such as Uniswap, Balancer is designed to provide a general solution that can be customized for a variety of trading pools with different distributions. It uses smart order routing to send trades to trading pools with the best rates available, and rewards traders by paying them a fee for increasing the liquidity of these pools. | DEW is a decentralized exchange that allows users to trade blockchain-based assets as well as stocks, futures, and other securities. Asset transfers are executed according to rules established in smart contracts, and a chain-based clearing mechanism ensures transparency. The DEW network, and exchange, is powered by the Ethereum-based DEW token. | Newdex is the first EOS based decentralized exchange. It's built on the EOS main chain and uses an off-chain matching mechanism to pair buyers and sellers. Newdex was hacked in September 2018, and lost around $58,000 worth of cryptocurrencies. Trading fees are 0.1%. |
