Dexdex is the first platform to bring the power of wallet to wallet trading (i.e. decentralized trading) directly to your website, wallet, app or dApp. Unlike other decentralized exchanges — or ‘DEXs’ — who drive traffic to their own exchange website, Dexdex brings the exchange to you. How? Simply integrate our EasyTrade widget and give your users a secure, trust-less way to buy or sell tokens.

Current Project Status: Open beta starts on July 2nd.

Why dexdex?

  1. Keep users on your site/app. Users interested in trading tokens can now do so directly from your site or app.
  2. User-friendly design. Most DEXs require depositing/wrapping ethers or obtaining other tokens to pay fees. With Dexdex, everything is executed in a single transaction.
  3. Wallet-to-wallet. Wallet-to-wallet trading allows you to send and receive assets without a third-party intermediary. Dexdex never takes custody of user’s funds.
  4. Price Optimization. Dexdex aggregates prices from different exchanges allowing users to always find the best available price.
  5. Affiliate program. Dexdex has implemented a decentralized, trustless affiliate program. Find out more about our Affiliate Program here.

Price Optimization

Think of Expedia: they gather flights and hotel rooms from multiple sites and put them in one place making it easy to compare rates. Dexdex takes token prices from different exchanges and protocols, ensuring you always receive the best available rate with every trade. Like Expedia, Dexdex simply matches buyers and sellers.

As with hotels, the best prices may not be on one site. Dexdex compares prices from multiple exchanges, both centralized and decentralized, and can simultaneously execute orders from various exchanges at once. Unbeknownst, users may be executing one order from RadarRelay and another from ForkDelta.

Is Dexdex right for you?

  • Are you in the process of raising an ICO? With dexdex, you can begin trading the moment your ICO is over, without having to wait for your token to be listed on an exchange.
  • Does your site offer news, editorial insights, or track the market cap of coins and tokens? Users interested in trading tokens can do so directly from your website or app. No need to send users off-site to other exchanges.
  • Are you skeptical of centralized, custodial exchanges, or so-called “hot-storage wallets,” but love the convenience and ease of use they provide? Dexdex can turn your “cold” (i.e. hardware wallet) into a portable trading device, allowing wallet-to-wallet trade capability anywhere.

Integrating Dexdex

There are two ways to integrate with Dexdex:

1. One way is to install our EasyTrade widget directly on your website. You can embed it with one line of javascript, or modify the widget open source code to create a custom version.

2. You can also integrate with Dexdex platform by calling directly to our API. It allows any application to execute a decentralized trade. More information here.

Current and future work

We are investing time and energy in two areas:

  1. Making it easier for developers to integrate our platform. Dexdex will be developing a dashboard to help third parties manage their integration.
  2. Integration with more exchanges allowing us to provide better token rates.

At Dexdex, we are truly humbled to be on the front lines of technological change that’s revolutionizing how we do business and interact as global citizens. If you are interested in listing your token on Dexdex, fill out our application here.
