Crypto.Com Has Launched a DeFi Exchange Based on Uniswap

2020-9-12 18:19

Crypto.com has launched a DeFi swap service, which allows investors to trade their Ethereum-based ERC-20 tokens.

Eight Coins Supported

The app currently supports eight coins: Ethereum (ETH), Compound (COMP), Crypto.com Token (CRO), Dai (DAI), Chainlink (LINK), USDC, Tether (USDT), and Wrapped ETH (WETH).

Cryptocurrency is drawn from a pool funded by various liquidity providers, and prices are adjusted to provide the “best available rate.”

In addition to swapping coins, users can stake their tokens through the app’s “pool” and “boost” features to earn interest on their holdings. Crypto.com offers higher rates to those who hold its native CRO token—a 20x bonus for those who stake in the highest tier.

The app has been forked from Uniswap v2, a popular decentralized exchange (DEX). Changes to the app have been audited by Crypto.com and by the blockchain firm SlowMist.

Crypto.com Commits to DeFi

This news comes just weeks after the platform announced plans to merge its old MCO token with its newer CRO token. That move was widely criticized because Crypto.com has quite suddenly imposed the change on its users.

The new, relatively open and decentralized coin swap tool could bring back users who believe the company’s centralized nature allows it to exert too much control at times. The swap app only requires Metamask or WalletConnect, not an account with Crypto.com’s custodial exchange.

“We believe that blockchain and decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols built on top have the potential to empower millions to exercise this right,” Crypto.com states on its website.
