What is the demx decentralized exchange

1. Defi, also known as open finance, refers to the financial application ecosystem created with the help of blockchain network (especially Ethereum)
users in the defi ecosystem have complete control over the assets and participate in the defi with the help of P2P network and DAPP
advantages of defi
the popularity of defi is inseparable from its unique advantages. Defi mainly includes:
1. Open loan agreement
compared with the traditional credit structure, open and decentralized loans have many advantages, including integration of digital asset lending, digital asset mortgage, real-time transaction settlement and novel secured loan methods, no credit check, standardization and interoperability. The purpose of secured lending using open protocols such as maker and Dharma is to rece the risk of counterparties without intermediation by relying on the minimum amount of collateral provided by Ethereum
2. Issuance platform and investment
famous securities issuance platforms such as polymath and harbor provide the framework, tools and resources for issuers to issue marked securities on the blockchain. They have prepared their own standardized token contracts for securities (i.e. st-20 and r-token), which are unique in terms of automatic compliance and customizable transaction parameters and can meet regulatory requirements. Similarly, they are integrated with service providers (e.g., broker dealers, custodians, legal entities, etc.) to assist issuers in issuing
3. Decentralized forecasting market
decentralized forecasting market is one of the most attractive components of open finance, which is highly complex but has great potential. August launched the anti censorship forecast market last year, and other platforms like gnosis began to follow suit. Forecasting market has long been a popular financial tool for avoiding risks and speculating on world events, and decentralized forecasting market can also do this
4 exchanges and open markets
exchanges in open finance mainly consider decentralized exchange (DEX) protocol and P2P market. First of all, DEX is a P2P asset exchange between two parties on Ethereum, in which no third party acts as an intermediary, such as coinbase or other centralized exchanges. DEX also uses some highly innovative methods to exchange tokens, such as atomic exchange and other unmanaged methods, to exchange one asset for another with minimal settlement time or risk. The most popular DAPP in Ethereum is the decentralized exchange IDEX. Although many "DEX" claim that they are indeed decentralized or unmanaged, be careful before using them. The P2P market on Ethereum has great long-term potential, and may eventually cover the market of local digital assets and marked real-world assets
5. Stable currency
stable currency is booming in the digital asset market by issuing warrants, auditing its reserves and managing its price linked new model. Stable currency is just a token issued by the blockchain, which aims to keep a stable link with external assets (mainly US dollars, gold or other assets). The stable currency of encrypted mortgage includes Maker & # 39; S Dai, where the underlying asset (e.g., ETH) is over mortgaged relative to the borrowing asset (DAI) according to the current mortgage rate. So far, stable currencies backed by legal tender are the most popular because of regulatory compliance and no audit risk, such as tether, usdc and Gemini dollars
disadvantages of defi
on the one hand, the development of defi is restricted by the performance of the underlying public chain. The current defi project is mainly built on the Ethereum network. At present, the performance bottleneck of Ethereum is relatively prominent, and there is still a long way to go to break through the bottleneck. Under such a situation, those projects with high performance requirements will be in an embarrassing situation. On the other hand, compared with traditional financial procts, decentralized financial projects are much more difficult to use and have higher cognitive requirements for users, which will also greatly affect the development speed of defi. In addition, the roller coaster like ups and downs of defi projects (sushi, yam, yfii, etc.) also make people wary of its security. How to continuously accumulate user trust is also the focus of attention in the future.
