Advanced Autonomous
Market Makers
Advanced mathematics ensures that all Mettalex markets are fully collateralized. Even more efficient mathematical operations will be introduced with the incorporation of Fetch.ai technology.
Unique
DeFi Markets
The Mettalex commodity derivatives exchange features markets unavailable anywhere in the DeFi space, including Steel, Iron Ore, Natural Gas, Aluminium, Zinc, Copper, and spreads like BTC/Gold, ETH/Gold, sCEX/sDEFI, and many more.
Perpetual
Liquidity Mining
87.5% of all MTLX tokens will be distributed to liquidity providers (LPs) that supply stablecoin liquidity to Mettalex’s Autonomous Market Makers. That turns all Mettalex markets into “perpetual yield farms”. In addition, LPs are also rewarded with trading fees.
No liquidations
Stakeholders taking hedge positions assuming price hikes or dips will not lose their collateral on the basis of short term price movements. Position tokens remain valid until the date of settlement and recover in value if price recovers unlike a margin based position.
Instant
Settlements
Positions on Mettalex are monitored by an autonomous agent that ensures the market has sufficient liquidity for absorbing your position in the event that you decide to exit.
Crowd-sourced
Collateral Pool
Mettalex uses position tokens instead of margin positions offered by conventional trading platforms. These position tokens in turn are backed fully by individuals looking to receive a part of the trading fees from the platform. Adding another layer of stability to the exchange.
