DeGate: The Top DEX

When you go to Coinmarketcap to check a token’s markets, switch to the DEX tab, and you’ll find DeGate among the top! This achievement comes from good liquidity, low slippage, and active trading volumes. DeGate, as an order book DEX, ranks right next to classic AMMs like Uniswap but with lower fees and a much better trading experience. In fact, we’ve been seeing new users coming to DeGate from portals like Coinmarketcap and Coingecko. A high ranking in DEX markets brings organic spotlight to DeGate!

Volume on DeGate is higher than Curve
Top 3 DEX by trading volume

In June, DeGate’s monthly trading volume hit $179M. We added new pairs, including new tokens like ZRO, NSTR, and REZ. We’re stepping up to react quickly to the market, aiming to offer new and trending tokens fast.

The crypto market faces some headwinds due to inflation in the macro economy, overhyped crypto project valuations, and speculation-driven meme crazes. But DeGate is here to stay, whether it’s a bull or bear market. With permissionless listings, we offer everything from the newest memes to long-term value assets, serving everyone — whether you’re a risk-prone degen gambler or a boring value investor.

Deposit to Earn Campaigns

In June, we launched two “Deposit to Earn” campaigns with Arpa and Jasmy. The Jasmy campaign is still ongoing. The goal is to build brand awareness in our partner project’s community and get them to try out DeGate.

The Arpa campaign brought in a TVL of about $285k, and Jasmy hit $411k. We also saw around 100 new DeGate accounts created.

Our initiatives got great support from partners, influencers, and participants.

A memecoin analysis video was published during the Jasmy campaign by Freeman:

To showcase the campaigns and earning opportunities, a campaign page was launched https://campaign.degate.com/. All the past and ongoing campaigns are collected here.

Product Update

We’re working on adding and sending funds with L2s like Arbitrum and Optimism, something many users have requested. This cross-chain feature will lower costs and barriers for users. If you think Ethereum layer 1 is too expensive, you’ll soon have a cheaper way to join DeGate.

The Sun and the Ether: Why Ethereum Has Already Won

An article by DeGate evangelist, titled “The Sun and the Ether: Why Ethereum Has Already Won,” was published on Hackernoon. The article dives into the philosophical and technical aspects of Ethereum, discussing why the blockchain has value and how Ethereum’s L1+L2 combo effectively addresses trustlessness, security, and scalability. This featured article was read and shared widely in the crypto community.
