According to the official press release, the cross-chain swap mechanism that is being implemented by the OpenOcean DEX aggregator features significantly improved algorithms, and the deepest liquidity sources in the market. This gives the platform a much stronger competitive edge over other DEX aggregators, especially since the introduction of OpenOceans ‘one-click cross-chain swap function’.
This also comes in line with the face that a large number of these DEXes, which had been seeing dwindling numbers have seen a major jump in numbers since the month of November post the tragic FTX collapse. More and more people are losing faith on centralized exchanges after the SBF’s FTX fiasco and are choosing to opt for decentralized exchanges over centralized ones – which are often far more user friendly and easier to use.
Even according to data from a report by Delhi Digital indicates that DEX platform are seeing a near 24% upsurge in trading volumes following the collapse of the FTX crypto exchange.
