Company Description
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. | UNUS SED LEO is an initiative started by Bitfinex that is focused on increasing the exchange's transparency. UNUS SED LEO means "one, but it's a lion" in Latin. The iniatative was created to increase the transparency of the exchange's finances, following a controversy related to the allocation of reserves from the stablecoin Tether, that was created by the same parent company as the Bitfinex exchange, iFinex. It is built around a token burning redemption mechanism which is tied to the parent company's revenues. Their dashboard provides insights into the fees that are collected, and the LEO tokens that are burned. | Poloniex is an established crypto to crypto exchange that is based in the United States. It offers a large selection of tokens to trade and has high liquidity. Poloniex was hacked in 2014, and lost more than 12% of their bitcoin supply. They have improved their security protocols since then. In February, 2018 Poloniex was acquired by Circle, one of the largest crypto payment providers. Trading Fee: 0%-0.1% Maker and 0%-0.2% Taker |
