What is the Zero Exchange

The Zero Exchange is at its core a multi and cross chain decentralized exchange. Its ethos is to fully embrace the decentralized aspects of crypto and to grow a thriving and engaged community, backed by a dedicated project team identifying the opportunities (features, technical, partnerships, etc) to build as a 1st mover a model for the future of crypto trading on multiple chains in a one stop shop, except that the future is now.

Official statement from the white paper

ZERO Exchange is a fully decentralised protocol for automated liquidity provision.

The ZERO Exchange Protocol realigns incentives for network participants by introducing revenue sharing and community driven network effects to the popular AMM model.

Chains currently connected

  • Ethereum
  • Avalanche
  • BSC
  • Polygon (Matic)
  • Done, waiting for the parachains to go live:

Utility of the ZERO token

  • Liquidity Mining rewards (= "farming" ZERO tokens + earning a percentage of the trading fees)
  • Initial Farming Offerings (= "farming" other tokens than ZERO)
  • Initial DEX Offerings: Winning allocations in IDO's on the Zero Gravity launchpad
  • Soon: Access to multi chain charting (partnership with ChartEx) integrated in the Zero interface
  • Offers a possibility to transfer tokens from one chain to another even if the Zero Exchange wouldn't support these or there is no liquidity on the Zero Exchange

Go live

Exchange was launched at the end of January 2021.

Token presale or investors

No presale, no investors. The team invested 60 ETH of their own to bootstrap the project.

Some achievements of the project since going live

First project to:

  • Build a DEX on the Avalanche chain
  • Build a bridge between the Ethereum and Avalanche chains
  • Build a bridge between the Avalanche and BSC chains
  • Build a bridge between Avalanche and Polygon chains
  • Build a bridge to Kusama/DOT parachains in partnership with Moonbeam
    • The Zero Exchange will likely be the first DEX to be ready and operational on these parachains
  • Integrate ChartEX
