• A Bitty Comparism : CEX Vs DEX

While there is less reason to choose between these two major forms of exchanges for traders; there is a need to review the hidden drawbacks associated with these existing systems in other to effectively improve trader's experience when using this exchanges.

While CEX offers trader unequal speed of transaction when compared with DEX exchanges; it comes short in providing the needed security for trader's fund which pales in contrast to the water-tight security offered by the decentralised blockchain on which the DEX exchange is based.

• The Obvious trade-off

For this reason, trader's find themselves needing to make a security trade-off whenever they move their funds from their safe wallet on the blockchain to a desired central exchange platform for the purpose of trading. Albeit they also incur some cost in form of gas fee in the process while their desired CEX exchange also deduct transactional fees everytime a trade is initialized.

While DEX exchange is just too difficult to use for new traders and too slow to practice real-time trading although all transaction lives on the blockchain which means that traders security is not at risk but there privacy is.

It is obvious that these dieficiency in both forms of exchange creates a bit of a dilemna for trader's who prefer security over flexibility or desire more privacy. All this and more is possible with Digitex!

Introducing Digitex

Digitex is the first commission-free futures exchange on the blockchain.

Digitex is an hybrid derivative of both forms of exchanges inorder to solve the problems in the existing system and create a platform that guarantee trader's privacy, security, flexibility and profitability.

The Digitex token, DGTX has a big role to play for all this benefits outlined above to be actualised because DGTX token will serve as the native currency of the exchange which means that every transactions will be denominated in DGTX.

All profits, losses, margin requirements and account balances are denominated in DGTX tokens, meaning that traders must own DGTX tokens to participate in the commission-free, trustless markets on Digitex. This creates demand for DGTX tokens from traders Source : Whitepaper

Digitex Exchange Platform Explained

Digitex is a first-of-it-kind commission-free exchange which means that traders dont need to worry about transaction fees before filing for a buy/sell order. These mindset allows the trader to trade at will which consequently increase the liquidity rate of the exchange and DGTX token as well.



In a bid to sustain the platform for a long time, digitex will mint and sell new tokens to cover the maintenance and operational fee. This is expected to start two years from when the platform launch fully; expected to be the end of 2018. But more importantly, DGTX token holders will decide how much DGTX token is minted and sold.

In a measure to avoid the inflationary cost of the DGTX token caused by minting new tokens, Digitex has automated market makers in place inorder to ensure there is high liquidity on the platform. This will inturn encourage trader's to enter and exit positions easily thereby driving the liquidity high even more.

Apart from this traders enjoy some other benefits from using the Digitex platform which are outlined below

Use Case

A Cryptocurrency Asset Manager

Remy works with a crypto asset management firm and one of his duty is to ensure that he makes good return or stop a loss on all the assets under his care. Presently he faces a problem with the futures trading platform he is using because he keeps losing what they call small money due to their small tick size which at the end accumulate to be a big loss for remy

But using the Digitex trading platform would have solved this problem for Remy because a large tick size gives him enough time to make the right call on his trade action on time. Coupled with the one-click stop-loss feature,he can have a wider view of his assets bullish or bearish. If the latter happens, he can easily liquidate his contracts by using a protective stop saving him from making the small losses due to a wrong price forecast and in the case of a bullish market he can quickly accumulate his losses in a short time.

The truth is that in cryptocurrency trading, the small losses accumulate to be a huge loss for a busy trader like remy.

So with Digitex, Remy can make more "small wins" and "gain big!"
