Bitfinex Introduces EOS-Based Crypto Exchange “EOSfinex”

Bitfinex, one of Asia’s most prominent cryptocurrency exchanges, in its latest blog post, has announced that it would be launching a beta version of a high-performance decentralized exchange which will be built on the EOS platform. The infant crypto exchange dubbed “EOSfinex” would be launched on September 26, 2018, at Blockchain Live event in London.

3 Essential Pillars of the Decentralized World

Bitfinex has a long-term vision with EOSfinex and anticipates the creation of a fully decentralized exchange, the one of its kind. To accomplish it, it will have to be built around the three important pillars of the decentralized world. These include:

The Hong Kong-based cryptocurrency exchange has goals to fulfill with EOSFinex as it would provide a platform for the Asian exchange to innovate and explore with the EOS blockchain and ecosystem. It will open doors for the development team to further research and execute, projects in the fields of security, performance, and scalability.

Upon its launch, The platform will begin with a listing of all major crypto pairs EOS/USD, BTC/USD, and ETH/USD so it can expand at a quick pace introducing more coins and pairs. The contracts offered on the exchange would be flexible at the start so that any specially trusted contract can be executed with ease. These contracts will support the market, limit, immediate-or-cancel, and post-only orders at the start and additional order types would be added in the future based on customer feedback and demand. Addition of a new pair of coins will be done effortlessly once a trusted contract has issued a new token.

In any case, EOSfinex with all the features wrapped together could disrupt the cryptocurrency trading industry. Complete decentralization, which is also one of the main pillars for this exchange, would be something that everyone would have their eyes on as living in a centralized world today, understanding and functioning with something that is entirely decentralized would be tricky to adapt. But if one envisages a decentralized world in the future, it has to begin somewhere.
