It’s all happening! Today, April 27, 2020, marks the first day of live trading on the Digitex Futures exchange! Our first 20 traders are making history right now. They’ve received their email invitations and are starting to experience zero-fee Bitcoin futures trading for the very first time!

We are absolutely thrilled that we can finally start onboarding some of our most loyal supporters to zero-fee trading. But this is just the very beginning. Over the coming weeks, we’ll be ramping up the onboarding to 200 users, and then working our way through the 10,000-strong waitlist winners.

Remember, you still have the opportunity to apply to be part of the next 200. If you haven’t yet made your application, you can do so using this form.

As we mentioned, the main reason for onboarding a small group in the beginning is so we can continue to test and fix any bugs or glitches with the mainnet version.

As part of this phased onboarding, traders will initially have access to a lower leverage of 10x. This is a temporary measure and we expect to raise it once we’ve had the chance to ensure everything is working as expected.

Additionally, the platform is currently set up so that users can only trade using a single account based on the email address they provided for the testnet launch. It’s not possible for any user to set up a second account using a new email address. We don’t expect this to change before we’re fully open to the public.

Other than these known issues, our first 20 will be helping us clean up any other bugs they may find during live trading.
