StableDEX: Decentralized Exchange for Trading Stablecoins

StableDex is one of the first decentralized platforms, among the existing cryptocurrency exchanges, that focuses its operations on providing the services of peer-to-peer conversion of stablecoins in order to mitigate the volatility risks inherent to conventional cryptocurrencies, thus raise the appeal of the crypto space for the hesitant investors.

Right now, the project is having a sale of STDEX, the ERC-20 token that exercises the function of the primary currency of the StableDEX marketplace for stablecoins.

The features of the exchange

StableDex indicates Estonia as its place of registration, though the project’s core team is comprised mainly of Swiss specialists. No information has been revealed as of yet regarding the obtainment of any operational licenses from the corresponding Estonian authorities.

The main objective of StableDEX is to create a fully-featured decentralized trading platform on the basis of the Ethereum blockchain that enables seamless P2P crypto trading while allowing users to maintain full control over their crypto assets.

Apart from allowing traders to retain full custody of their tradable assets, StableDEX offers a host of other features, some of which are not available on most decentralized platforms.

Margin trading, an instrument that gains popularity on crypto exchanges. It affords an opportunity to manage investment risks more efficiently and carry out leveraged trading, using funds borrowed from a third party.

Transaction mining is the scheme that provides for the acquisition of STDEX tokens by means of so-called “transaction mining” - rewarding users whose 30-day trading volume exceeds 1 million USDT.

Automated trading comes in the form of the realtime websocket APIs, thanks to which users can apply personalized trading algorithms and execute sophisticated strategies. StableDEX also has a loyalty program which rewards users who hold from 10 thousand to 1 million STDEX for a prolonged period of time, but no less than 30 consecutive days.

StableDex also promises to impose low transaction fees which amount to 0.15% in base currency and 0.05% is STDEX; the exchange won’t charge any withdrawal and listing fees.
