Stakenet DX will be a DEX to keep an eye on that is coming very soon. The DEX will utilise their Lightning Swap technology for instant order fulfilment. This give it the speed of a centralised exchange with the safety of a DEX by keeping your assets in your wallet under your control at all times right up until the moment the trade is completed.
It will run directly from their new Multicurrency Light Wallet which that itself is pretty interesting. With the new wallet their Masternode network will hold all of the relevant blockchains so the wallet does not need too. This makes it lightweight and fast as it doesn't have to download and sync loads of data so can be used from any device including mobile. It signs transaction via Lightning Invoices.
Their DEX will also be entirely hosted by their MN network which currently has nearly 2000 nodes. All fee's generated by the DEX are also paid back to the MN holders for an additional income stream giving holders incentive to run the DEX. Frank Amato is working with them on the design and features to ensure it is fully featured with everything you would expect from an exchange and some features that have not yet been done before on a crypto exchange.
The cool thing about the DEX is that it is part of their plans for cross-chain payments via Lightning Swaps to enable instant payments using any crypto to any retailer where BTC is accepted. So if a shop accepts BTC you can now pay using LTC, ETH or your favourite crypto and it will be instantly converted to BTC for the retailer via a Lightning Swap facilitated by the DEX.
Their plans include utilising stablecoins like USDC for retailer adoption as a trusted stable coin has a much higher chance of adoption because it is not as volatile as something like BTC so more likely for retailers to accept it. So using the above example you can go into a shop and it comes to $10 you can pay using any crypto and that is instantly converted to $10 USDC for the retailer via the Lightning Swap. USD is pretty much accepted worldwide especially in developing nations but it can be hard to get hold of and can be expensive to move. Utilising something like USDC removes this barrier as it can be moved quickly and easily.
The Lightning Swap tech is complete and they already have it running on mainnet so anyone can try it but it's a bit techy so they have been condensing all that backend work into a simple "one click" solution for the new wallet so it is simple for everyone to use. They recently collaborated with the Litecoin Foundation to bring Litecoin up to speed on Lightning Network as well.
Here is a good article about the wallet/DEX:
https://medium.com/stakenet/multi-currency-wallet-and-lightning-swaps-stakenet-solution-7d0dafe99105It is good to have a DEX having these features. TPS is one of the qualities traders and investors look out for when investing or using any coin or exchange.
I am looking forward to its lunch and will look into it for those features. After which I will update it on the list.
The problem is that most of the DEX in your list have no volume at all and are useless. I think we will need to wait for another year or two until wee see a really useful DEX, line when Binance or other of the Big names start their on DEX.
This is more reason they needed a lot of awarenesses and trust. So many centralizer exchanges started with no or low volume, even the ones we see as being big today.
