AirSwap is working to create a decentralized peer-to-peer exchange for ERC-20 tokens. Instead of using a centralized order book to execute trades, AirSwap is developing an indexer that will act like a search engine to connect traders. The AirSwap Oracle gives pricing recommendations in a way that is drastically different than the market maker pricing of centralized exchanges. The exchange is fueled by the AST token, which allows anyone to become a liquidity maker.

Tokens is developing a cryptocurrency exchange for ERC20 tokens that will be powered by their native Dynamic Trading Rights token. Their exchange places a strong emphasis on community driven governance. They have developed a mechanism that allows DTR token holders to be consulted about the future direction of their trading platform and what additional token pairs will be listed.

Kyber is a decentralized network and exchange that is focused on providing liquidity. Kyber enables token transactions between platforms and aims to make these exchanges of value easier, by connecting different ecosystems and applications. Kyber users can exchange tokens with greater liquidity because the network maintains a reserve of all tokens. Transactions are very fast and are processed via smart contracts that have a derivative functionality where users can hedge currencies to lower risk. Kyber can also be used make payments to anyone, in any token, across any platform. The network is powered by the Kyber token (KNC) that was released in an ICO that raised almost $49 million.
