1. What is Dradex and what makes it different?
Dradex introduces our unified Order Book & AMM model, fully integrated to facilitate trades with minimum slippage. Our algorithm automatically executes your order at the best price from a seamless combination of either the Order Book or the AMM Liquidity Pool.
The order book model is similar to the order matching model of a CEX, while the AMM model is a quintessential offering of a DEX. Combining the two, Dradex provides a wide range of original state-of-the-art features with a consistent and smooth trading experience.
2. Why build on Solana?
Solana’s blockchain algorithm runs at a high-speed able of creating blocks every 400 milliseconds, leading to higher speeds of transactions that exceed Ethereum’s ERC-20 standard. Since scalability is always an issue, Solana makes it possible for new Defi projects to adapt to endless upgrades and changes on the blockchain. This blockchain has excellent scalability features that make the blockchain faster and cost-efficient. As firm believers in Solana, our goal is to supply users with an onboarding point to the DEX to experience it in a whole new light, offering an experience similar to centralized exchanges.
